							make it possible subsequently to thaw only
the quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or pol- ythene 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.Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this ap-
pliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the
retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transfer-
red 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 indica- ted by the food manufacturer.
Care and cleaning
Caution!  Unplug the appliance before
carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in
its cooling unit; maintenance and re-
charging must therefore only be carried
out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with luke-
warm 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.
Important!  Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products or wax
polishes to clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance with
a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation
will improve the performance of the appli-
ance and save energy consumption.
Important!  Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Important!  When moving the cabinet, lift it
by the front edge to avoid scratching the
floor.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason use a soft cloth rinsed in warm water
and neutral soap emulsion for cleaning ex-
ternal surfaces.
Important!  Do not use detergents or
abrasive paste as these will damage the
paint, or stainless steel anti finger print
coating.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to
the mains supply.
Cleaning the ventilation grille
The ventilation grille can be removed for
washing.
Make sure the door is open and then:
1. Loosen the upper edge of the grille by pulling outward/downward.
2. Pull the grille straight out to completely remove it.
3. Vacuum clean under the cabinet.electrolux   11 
						

							Defrosting the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops, dur-
ing normal use. The defrost water drains out
through a drain hole 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 refriger-
ator compartment channel to prevent the
water overflowing and dripping onto the food
inside.
Defrosting of the freezer
The freezer compartment of this model, on
the other hand, is a "no frost" type. This
means that there is no buildup of frost when
it is in operation, neither on the internal walls
nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous
circulation of cold air inside the compart-
ment, driven by an automatically controlled
fan.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long pe-
riods, take the following precautions:
1. disconnect the appliance from electricity supply
2. remove all food
3. clean the appliance and all accessories
4. leave the door/doors open to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
Important!  If the cabinet will be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a while to
prevent the food inside from spoiling in case
of a power failure.
What to do if…
During operation of the appliance some
smaller but annoying trouble can often occur,
which does not require calling a technician
out. In the following chart information is given
about them to avoid unnecessary charges on
service.
Important!  The operation of the appliance
goes with certain sounds (compressor andcirculating sound). This not means a trouble,
but a normal operation.
Important!  The appliance operates
discontinuously, so the stopping of
compressor does not mean being no
current. That is why you must not touch the
electrical parts of the appliance before
breaking the circuit.12   electrolux

Installation
Read the "Safety Information" carefully
for your safety and correct operation of
the appliance before installing the
appliance.
Positioning
Install this appliance at a location where the
ambient temperature corresponds to the cli-
mate class indicated on the rating plate of the
appliance:Climate classAmbient temperatureSN+10°C to + 32°CN+16°C to + 32°CST+16°C to + 38°CT+16°C to + 43°C
Location
To ensure best performance, if the appliance
is positioned below an overhanging wall unit,
the minimum distance between the top of the
cabinet and the wall unit must be at least 40
mm . Ideally, however, the appliance should
not be positioned below overhanging wall
units.
If the cabinet is placed in a corner and the
side with the hinges facing the wall, the dis-
tance between the wall and the cabinet must
be at least 120 mm to allow the door to open
enough so that the equipment can be re-
moved.
The ventilation space can be:
• directly above the appliance
• behind and above the top cupboard. In this case, the space behind the top cup-
board must be at least 50 mm deep.Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage
and frequency shown on the rating plate cor-
respond to your domestic power supply.
The appliance must be earthed. The power
supply cable plug is provided with a contact
for this purpose. If the domestic power sup-
ply socket is not earthed, connect the appli-
ance to a separate earth in compliance with
current regulations, consulting a qualified
electrician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if
the above safety precautions are not ob-
served.
This appliance complies with the E.E.C. Di-
rectives.
