the correct use, before installing and first
using the appliance, read this user manual
carefully, including its hints and warnings.
To avoid unnecessary mistakes and acci-
dents, it is important to ensure that all
people using the appliance are thoroughly
familiar with its operation and safety fea-
tures. Save these instructions and make
sure that they remain with the appliance if
it is moved or sold, so that everyone using
it through its life will be properly informed
on appliance use and safety.
For the safety of life and property keep
the precautions of these user's instruc-
tions as the manufacturer is not responsi-
ble for damages caused by omission.
1.1 Children and vulnerable
people safety
• This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental ca-
pabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been giv-
en supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person re-
sponsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to en-
sure that they do not play with the ap-
pliance.

neutral soap so as to remove the typical
smell of a brand-new product, then dry
thoroughly.
6www.electrolux.com

Do not use detergents or abrasive
powders, as these will damage
the finish.
If DEMO appears on the Display, the ap-
pliance is in demonstration mode: refer to
“WHAT TO DO IF...” paragraph.
3.2 Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of runners so that the
shelves can be positioned as desired.
For better use of space, the front half-
shelves can lie over the rear ones.
3.3 Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of
various sizes, the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
To make these adjustments proceed as
follow: gradually pull the shelf in the direc-
tion of the arrows until it comes free, then
reposition as required.
3.4 Carbon Air Filter
Your appliance is equipped with a carbon
filter behind a flap in the rear wall of the
fridge compartment.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odors in the fridge and NATURAFRESH
0°C compartment meaning that the stor-
age quality will be further improved.
During the operation, always keep the air
ventilation flap closed.
3.5 Naturafresh 0°C
Compartment
In the Naturafresh 0°C compartment the
temperature is controlled automatically. It
stays constantly at about 0°C, no adjust-
ment is necessary.
The constant storage temperature of
about 0°C and the relative humidity of be-
tween 45 and 90 % provide optimal con-
ditions for the various kinds of food.
ENGLISH 7

You can therefore store a variety of fresh
food in the Naturafresh 0°C compartment,
where it will last up to 3 times longer with
better quality compared to normal refrig-
erator compartments. This allows you to
stock more fresh food. Taste, degree of
freshness, quality and nutritional values
(vitamins and minerals) are well preserved.
Loss of weight in vegetables and fruit di-
minishes. Food yields a higher degree of
nutritional value.
The Naturafresh 0°C compartment is also
suitable for defrosting food.
In this case the thawed food can be stor-
ed up to two days.
3.6 Humidity control
Both drawers can be used accord-
ing to the desired storage conditions
independently of each other with
lower or higher humidity.
Regulation for each drawer is sepa-
rate and is controlled using the slide
valve at the front of the drawer.
• “Dry“: low air humidity - up to 50
% relative humidity
This humidity level is reached when
both sliders are set into this position
and the ventilation openings are
wide open.
• “Humid“: high relative humidity -
up to 90%
This humidity level is reached when
both sliders are set in this position
and the ventilation openings are
closed. Humidity is kept and can not
escape.

Cakes containing cream and other kinds
of pastry products can be stored in the
Naturafresh 0°C compartment for 2 or 3
days.
Not to be placed in the Naturafresh 0°C
compartment:
• cold sensitive fruit which have to be
stored at cellar or room temperature
like pineapple, bananas, grapefruit,
melons, mango, papaya, oranges, lem-
ons, kiwi fruit.
• The types of food not mentioned above
should be stored in the refrigerator
compartment (e.g. all sorts of cheese,
cold cuts, etc.)
The level of air humidity in the drawers de-
pends on the content of humidity in the
stored food, vegetable and fruit and on
the frequency of door opening
The Naturafresh 0°C compartment is also
suitable for slow thawing of food. In this
case the thawed food can be stored in
the Naturafresh 0°C compartment for up
to two days.
Tips:
ENGLISH 9

• Pay attention to the freshness of the
food, especially on the expiry date.
Quality and freshness influence the
storage time.
• The whole storage cycle time will de-
pend on the preservation conditions
made prior to the final storage in the
fridge.
• Food, fruit or vegetables should always
be packed or wrapped up before stor-
age.
• Animal food always store packed and
dry.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad quick-
er. This means seafood will spoil before
fish which in turn will spoil before meat.
While storing food in a Naturafresh 0°C
compartment storage time for that kind
of food can be increased by up to three
times as well without loss on quality.
• All food stored in a Naturafresh 0°C
compartment should be taken out of
the drawers roughly 15-30 min before
consumption, particularly fruit and veg-
etables to be consumed without any
additional cooking process. Allowing
fruit and vegetables to return to room
temperature will improve the texture
and flavour.
3.7 Naturafresh drawers
The humidity is not adjustable.
The wire shelves inside the drawers per-
mit that air can circulate freely and conse-
quently a better conservation of foods.
The compartment has stops to prevent
the drawers from falling out when fully ex-
tended.
To remove the drawers (e.g. for cleaning
purposes), pull them out as far as the
stops, lift and remove.
Remove all drawers to store large
quantities of foods.

4. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
4.1 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 con-
tinuously, 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 consump-
tion.
4.2 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
4.3 Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or
two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these
should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the spe-
cial drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and
should be stored in the bottle rack on the
door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if
not packed, must not be kept in the re-
frigerator.
5. CARE AND CLEANING
CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before car-
rying out any maintenance opera-
tion.
This appliance contains hydrocar-
bons in its cooling unit; mainte-
nance and recharging must there-
fore only be carried out by author-
ized technicians.
5.1 Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regular-
ly:
• clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral
soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the
cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed clean-
ing products or wax polishes to
clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a
strong odor.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush. This operation will improve
the performance of the appliance and
save electricity consumption.
The lowest shelf, dividing the cooler com-
partment from the NaturaFresh 0°C com-
partment can be removed only for clean-
ing. To remove pull out the shelf straight.
ENGLISH 11

The cover plates above the drawers in the
compartment can be taken out for clean-
ing.
To make sure fully functionality of the Na-
turaFresh 0°C compartment the lowest
shelf and cover plates must be put back
in their original position after cleaning.
Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/dam-
age the plastics used in this appliance.
For this reason it is recommended that
the outer casing of this appliance is only
cleaned with warm water with a little
washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment
to the mains supply.
5.2 Replacing the carbon filter
1
2
The carbon filter helps to reduce the
odors inside the fridge limiting the risk of
unwanted aroma in sensitive food.
To get the best performance the carbon
filter should be changed once every year.
New active air filters can be purchased
from your local dealer.
• The air filter is placed behind the flap
and can be reached by pulling the flap
outward (1)
• pull out of the slot the exhausted air fil-
ter.
• insert the new air filter in the slot (2)
• close the flap.
The air filter is a consumable accessory
and as such is not covered by the guar-
antee.
During the operation, always keep the air
ventilation flap closed.
The air filter should be handled carefully to
prevent its surface from being scratched.
5.3 Defrosting of the refrigerator
Defrosting of the fridge compartment is
automatic.
The water that forms flows into a recipient
on the compressor and evaporates. This
recipient cannot be removed.
5.4 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
•disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• remove all food
• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appli-
ance and all accessories
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some-
body to check it once in a while to pre-
vent the food inside from spoiling in case
of a power failure.
