How to use the refrigerator
For adequate cooling developing
interior air circulation is necessary.
For this reason you are asked not to
cover the air circulation gaps behind the
shelves (e.g. with tray etc.).
Do not put hot food into the
refrigerator. Allow it to reach
room temperature naturally. In this
way the unnnecessary frost building
up can be avoided.
Foods can take over odours
from each other. So it is
essential to put foods in closed
dishes or wrap them in cellophane,
aluminium foil, grease-proof paper or
cling film before placing them into the
refrigerator. This way foods will keep
their moisture e.g. vegetables will not
dry out after some days.

key E.
Drawer
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and
vegetables. There is a separator inside
the drawer that can be placed in different
positions to allow for the subdivision best
suited to personal needs.
Air Filter
Your appliance is equipped with a carbon
filter behind a flap in the rear wall of the
air distributing box.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odours in the fridge compartment
meaning that the storage quality will be
further improved.
Note: Always keep the air ventilation flap
closed.
The Refrigerator
Below is the recommended storage
positions for various food types:
1. Ready-cooked foods, fresh meat, cold
cuts.
2. Milk, dairy products.
3. Fruits, vegetables, salads.
4. Cheese, butter.
5. Eggs.
6. Yoghurt, sour cream.
7. Small bottles, drinks.
8. Large bottles, drinks.
Storage Shelves
The shelves in the refrigerator
compartment are adjustable to allow for
the storage of large items.
To re-arrange the shelves, open the door
to 90°.
Storage Times
The storage chart at the end of the
instruction book gives information on
storage times in the refrigerator
compartment. The storage times quoted
are intended as a guide only.
Do not cover the shelves with paper or

Use of the freezer compartment
The freezer is provided with the
symbol which means that it is
suitable for freezing fresh food and
for long term storage of frozen and
deep-frozen food.
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 12 hours. To obtain the best
performance from this appliance, you
should:
if large quantities of food are to be stored,
remove all drawers and baskets from
appliance and place food on cooling
shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed load
limit stated on the side of the upper
section (where applicable).
Temperature regulation
The temperature may be regulated
between -15°C and -24°C.
We suggest setting the internal
temperature of approximately -18°C,
which guarantees proper freezing and
conservation of the frozen foods.
Attention!
During the stability period by the first
starting the temperature displayed can
not correspond to the setting
temperature. During this time it is
possible that the temperature displayed
is different than the setting temperature.
Attention!
Difference between the temperature
displayed and temperature setting is
normal. Especially when:
- a new setting has recently been
selected
- the door has been left open for a long
time
- warm food has been placed in the
compartment
Difference until 5°C inside the
compartment are quite normal.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the warmest temperature inside
the compartment.
Important
In the event of accidental defrosting,
for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer that
the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in the
freezer compartment (for example due to
an power failure) is indicated by:
- flashing temperature;
- freezer compartment flashing ;
- flashing of the icon ;
- sounding of buzzer.
When normal conditions are restored:

trays etc. as this will affect the air
circulation within the refrigerator
compartment.
Do not put hot foods in the
refrigerator, allow hot foods to reach

Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen
and deep-frezen food, and for freezing
fresh food.
The maximum quantity of foods to freeze
in 24 hours is shown on the serial

To freeze the amount of food indicated on
the serial number plate, place the food
directly in touch with the cooling surface
(remove the drawer or basket).
In case the food is frozen inside the
drawers or baskets, the maximum
quantity is slightly reduced.
Place the food to be frozen in the
compartment, as this is the coldest point.
To freeze fresh foods, you will need to
activate the fast freeze function. Press
key D (several times if necessary) until
the corresponding icon appears
You must confirm the choice by pressing

During this period do not put other foods
in the freezer.
This function stops automatically after 52
hours.
It is possible to de-activate the function at
any time by pressing key D until the
corresponding icon will flash and then
key E.

Important
Do not put carbonated liquids in the
freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer can cause a low
temperature skin burn.
In the event of a power cut the food in the
freezer will not be affected if the power
cut is short and the freezer is full. Do not
open the door. Should the food begin to
thaw it must be consumed quickly and
must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and
Tips)
Do not remove items from the freezer if
your hands are damp/wet, as this could
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer
burns.
16 electrolux GB
Frozen Food Storage
When first starting the freezer or if the
freezer has been out of use for some
time, we advise you to run your appliance
for at least 2 hours before storing frozen
food.
Do not exceed the storage period
indicated by the manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave
it open longer than is necessary.
It is practical to replace frozen products
into the basket(s) after freezing has
finished. Doing this you could make room
in the freezing compartment for furtner
freezing. Intermediate freezing does not
deteriorate foods already stored.
In large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove the baskets except the
lowest one from appliance and place
food on the shelves.
Removal of freezing baskets from
the freezer
The freezing baskets have a limit stop to
prevent their accidental removal or falling
out. At the time of its removal from the
freezer, pull the basket towards yourself
and, upon reaching the end point,
remove the basket by tilting its front
upwards.
At the time of putting it back, slightly lift
the front of the basket to insert it into the
freezer. Once you are over the end
points, push the baskets back in their
position. Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the fridge or at
room temperature, depending on the
time available. Small food items may even
be cooked from frozen, in this case
cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be eaten as

Hints & T
Hints & Tips ips
Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or
bubbling sounds when the refrigerant
is pumped through the coils or tubing.
When the compressor is on, the
refrigerant is being pumped round and
you will hear a whirring sound or
pulsating noise from the compressor.
A thermostat controls the compressor
and you will hear a faint 'click' when
the thermostat cuts in and out.
Food Storage
To obtain the best performance from your
freezer:
Do not store warm food or evaporating
liquid.
Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot
store it straight away. The use of an
insulated container is advisable. When
you arrive home, place the frozen food
in the freezer immediately.
Do not push food together too much,
try to allow air to circulate around each
item.
Do not store food uncovered.
Ensure that food placed in the freezer
is dated and labelled and used in date
order to ensure that food is consumed
at its best.
Lean food keeps better and longer
than fatty food, salt reduces the
storage time.
Wrap the food in polythene or
aluminium freezing bags or foil so that
they adhere to the food and provide an
airtight seal.
Packaging which is swollen or has
traces of refrozen water droplets on
the pack could indicate that the
product has not been kept at a
suitable temperature and that it may
have lost its original quality. Partially
thawed food must not be refrozen, it
must be consumed within 24 hours.
Never exceed the storage times
indicated by the manufacturer.
Energy Saving Advice
Do not install the appliance close to
sources of heat, such as a boiler or
radiator.
Locate the appliance in a cool well
ventilated room and make sure that
soon as possible, or thrown away.
Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and
has not been completely defrosted it can
be cooked and then refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must
never be refrozen.
)To Make Ice Cubes
1. Fill the ice cube tray ¾full with cold
water, place in the freezing
compartment and leave to freeze.
2. To remove the cubes twist the tray or
hold it under running water for a few
seconds.
Never try to free an ice tray that is
frozen to the freezer compartment by
using pointed or sharp edged objects.

then be refrozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: Should also be cooked and
refrozen as a fresh dish.
18 electrolux GB
the air openings of the appliance are
not obstructed.
Avoid unnecessary frosting in the
cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into
airtight packages before placing them
in the freezer.
Food which is to be frozen (when cool)
should be placed in the fridge before
being transferred to the freezer.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for
long periods or opening the door too
frequently as warm air will enter the
cabinet and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
Ensure there are no obstructions
preventing the door from closing
properly.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure during the
storage of frozen foods, keep the door
closed. If the temperature within your
freezer should rise, do not refreeze the
food without checking its condition. The
following guidelines should assist you:
Ice Cream: Once thawed should be
discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: If soft should be
cooked and used up.
Breads & Cakes: Can be refrozen
without danger.
Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and
used up quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should
be refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: Can be refrozen
providing there are still ice crystals
remaining within them.
Small Joints: Should be cooked and can
