3.  OPERATION3.1  Switching on
Insert the electrical plug into a wall
socket.
Turn the temperature regulator clockwise
to a medium setting.3.2  Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the
temperature regulator to the "O"
position.
3.3  Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically
regulated.
To operate the appliance, proceed as
follows:
• turn the Temperature regulator towards lower settings to obtain the
minimum coldness.
• turn the Temperature regulator towards higher settings to obtain the
maximum coldness.ENGLISH5   
						

							A medium setting is
generally the most suitable.
However, the exact setting should be
chosen keeping in mind that the
temperature inside the appliance
depends on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.
If the ambient temperature
is high or the appliance is
fully loaded, and the
appliance is set to the lowest
temperature, it may run
continuously causing frost to
form on the rear wall. In this
case the dial must be set to
a higher temperature to
allow automatic defrosting
and therefore reduced
energy consumption.4.  DAILY USE4.1  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 foods it is not necessary
to change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation,
turn the temperature regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum coldness.In this condition, the
refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop
below 0°C. If this occurs
reset the temperature
regulator to a warmer
setting.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the
third 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.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours:
during this period do not add other food
to be frozen.
4.2  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.
The freezer drawers ensure that it is
quick and easy to find the food package
you want. If large quantities of food are
to be stored, remove all drawers except for the bottom drawer which needs to be
in place to provide good air circulation.
On all shelves it is possible to place food that protrude until 15 mm from the door.WARNING!
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 re-
frozen (after cooling).5.  CARE AND CLEANINGWARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.5.1  Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first
time, the interior and all internal
accessories should be washed with
lukewarm water and some neutral soapwww.aeg.com6      
						

							to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dried thoroughly.CAUTION!
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these
will damage the finish.5.2  Periodic cleaningCAUTION!
Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/or
cables inside the cabinet.CAUTION!
Take care of not to damage
the cooling system.CAUTION!
When moving the cabinet,
lift it by the front edge to
avoid scratching the floor.
The equipment has to be cleaned
regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral
soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and
wipe clean to ensure they are clean
and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. If accessible, clean the condenser
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.
5.3  Defrosting of the
refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator
compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use.
The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the
back of the appliance, over the motor
compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and
dripping onto the food inside.5.4  Defrosting the freezerCAUTION!
Never use sharp metal tools
to scrape off frost from the
evaporator as you could
damage it. Do not use a
mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up
the thawing process other
than those recommended by
the manufacturer. A
temperature rise of the
frozen food packs, during
defrosting, may shorten their
safe storage life.About 12 hours prior to
defrosting, set a lower
temperature, in order to
build up sufficient chill
reserve for the interruption
in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the
top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out
electrical plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put
it in a cool place. 
WARNING!
Do not touch frozen
goods with wet hands.
Hands can freeze to the
goods.
3. Leave the door open and insert the
plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating at the bottom centre, placing
ENGLISH7         
						

							a basin underneath to collect the
defrost water.
In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in the freezer compartment. In addition,remove pieces of ice that break away
before defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry
the interior thoroughly and keep the
scraper for future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
After three hours reload the previously
removed food into the freezer
compartment.5.5  Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Defrost (if necessary) and clean the
appliance and all accessories.
4. Clean the appliance and all
accessories.
5. Leave the door/doors open to
prevent unpleasant smells.
