with a series of runners so that the
shelves can be positioned as desired.
For better use of space, the front half-
shelves (A) can be placed under the rear
ones. (B)
A
B
Do not move the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer
to ensure correct air
circulation.
5.2 Positioning the door
shelves
To permit storage of food packages of
various sizes, the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
1. Gradually pull the shelf in the
direction of the arrows until it comes
free.
2. Reposition as required.
5.3 Bottle rack
1. Place the bottles (with the opening
facing front) in the pre-positioned
shelf.
If the shelf is positioned
horizontally, place only
closed bottles.
2. To store previously opened bottles,
pull the shelf up so it can rotate
ENGLISH 9

upwards and be placed on the next
higher level.
5.4 FreeStore
The refrigerator compartment is
equipped with a device that allows for
rapid cooling of foods and more uniform
temperature in the compartment.
This device activates by itself when
needed, for example for a quick
temperature recovering after door
opening or when the ambient
temperature is high.
It is possible to switch on the
device manually when
needed (refer to "FreeStore
function").
The FreeStore device stops
when the door is open and
restarts immediately after
the door closing.
5.5 Humidity control
The glass shelf incorporates a device
with slits (adjustable by means of a
sliding lever), which makes it possible to
regulate the humidity in the vegetable
drawer(s).
When the ventilation slots are closed:
the natural moisture content of the food
in the fruit and vegetable compartments
is preserved for longer.
When the ventilation slots are opened:
more air circulation results in a lower air
moisture content in the fruit and
vegetable compartments.
5.6 Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen
and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the
FastFreeze function and place the food
to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
To freeze fresh food activate the
FastFreeze function at least 24 hours
before placing the food to be frozen in
the freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the
top compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can
be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the
rating plate, a label located on the
inside of the appliance.
www.electrolux.com10

The freezing process lasts 24 hours:
during this period do not add other food
to be frozen.
When the freezing process is completed,
return to the required temperature (see
"FastFreeze Function").
In this condition, the
refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop
below 0°C. If this occurs
reset the temperature
regulator to a warmer
setting.
5.7 Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, before putting the products in
the compartment let the appliance run at
least 2 hours on the higher settings.
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due
to a power failure, if the
power has been off for
longer than the value shown
in the technical
characteristics chart under
"rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed
quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
5.8 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to
being used, can be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment or at room
temperature, depending on the time
available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still
frozen, directly from the freezer: in this
case, cooking will take longer.
5.9 Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or
more trays for the production of ice-
cubes.
Do not use metallic
instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.
1. Fill these trays with water
2. Put the ice trays in the freezer
compartment.
6. HINTS AND TIPS
6.1 Normal operating sounds
The following sounds are normal during
operation:
• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound
from coils sound when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A whirring and pulsating sound from
the compressor when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A sudden cracking noise from inside
appliance caused by thermic dilatation
(a natural and not dangerous physical
phenomenon).
• A faint click noise from the
temperature regulator when the
compressor switches on or off.
6.2 Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the Temperature Regulator is set to
low temperature and the appliance is
fully loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice on
the evaporator. If this happens, set
the Temperature Regulator toward
warmer settings to allow automatic
defrosting and so a saving in
electricity consumption.
ENGLISH 11

6.3 Hints for fresh food
refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly
if it has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
6.4 Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable
packaging and place it on the glass
shelf above the vegetable drawer.
Store meat for at most 1-2 days.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and
place on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly
and place in a special drawer.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic
must not be kept in the refrigerator if
not packed.
• Butter and cheese: place in a special
airtight container or wrap in an
aluminium foil or a polythene bag to
exclude as much air as possible.
• Bottles: close with a cap and place on
the door bottle shelf, or (if available)
on the bottle rack.
6.5 Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the
freezing process, here are some
important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which
can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on
the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours
no further food to be frozen should be
added during this period;
• freeze only top quality, fresh and
thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and completely
frozen and to make it possible
subsequently to thaw only the quantity
required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or
polythene and make sure that the
packages are airtight;
• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to
touch food which is already frozen,
thus avoiding a rise in temperature of
the latter;
• lean foods store better and longer
than fatty ones; salt reduces the
storage life of food;
• water ices, if consumed immediately
after removal from the freezer
compartment, can possibly cause the
skin to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing in
date on each individual pack to
enable you to keep tab of the storage
time.
6.6 Hints for storage of frozen
food
To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially
frozen foodstuffs were adequately
stored by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are
transferred from the foodstore to the
freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave
it open longer than absolutely
necessary;
• once defrosted, food deteriorates
rapidly and cannot be refrozen;
• do not exceed the storage period
indicated by the food manufacturer.
