4. DAILY USE
4.1 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 food activate the
FROSTMATIC 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
bottom 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.
When the freezing process is completed,
return to the required temperature (see
"FROSTMATIC Function").
In this condition, the
refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop
below 0°C. If this occurs
reset the temperature
regulator to a warmer
setting.

www.aeg.com
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 with the FROSTMATIC
function turned on.
If large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers from
appliance and place food on glass shelf
to obtain the best performance.
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 data chart
under "Rising time", the
defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then refrozen (after cooling).
4.3 Storage of the food in a fridge compartment
Cover or wrap the food, particularly if it
has a strong flavour.
Position the food so that air can circulate
freely around it.
Keep the food on all shelves no closer
than 20 mm from the rear wall and 15
mm from the door.
4.4 LongFresh 0°compartment
To lower the temperature in the
compartment to 0° refer to a respective
section in 'Control Panel' chapter.
4.5 PROFRESH PLUS
The refrigerator compartment is
equipped with a device that allows rapid
cooling of food and keeps a more
uniform temperature in the
compartment.
This device activates automatically when
needed, for example when the
temperature inside the appliance is high.
4.6 CLEANAIR CONTROL filter
This active carbon filter absorbs bad
odours and maintains the best flavour
and aroma for all the food stored in the
refrigerator compartment.
On delivery the filter is in a plastic bag.
To install the filter in the appliance:
1. Take off the filter cover.
2. Take out the filter from the plastic
bag.
3. Insert the filter in the slot in the rear
wall of the appliance.
This compartment is suitable for storing
fresh food like fish, meat, seafood,
because it provides the best storage
temperature.
The temperature is lower here than in
the rest of the fridge.
4. Put on the filter cover.
Page 9
CAUTION!
Make sure that the filter
cover is always closed so
that the filter functions
correctly.
5. CARE AND CLEANING
ENGLISH
To get the best performance the filter
should be changed once every 6 months.
New active filter can be purchased from
your local dealer or through the website.
The part number is printed on the plastic
bag.

WARNING!
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 soap
to remove the typical smell of a brandnew product, then dried thoroughly.
CAUTION!
Do not use detergents,
abrasive powders, chlorine
or oil-based cleaners as they
will damage the finish.
5.2 Periodic cleaning
CAUTION!
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.
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
Your appliance is frost free. This means
that there is no build up 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 compartment,
driven by an automatically controlled fan.
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.
The equipment has to be cleaned
regularly:

7. INSTALLATION
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
7.1 Positioning
This appliance can be installed in a dry,
well ventilated indoor where the ambient
temperature corresponds to the climate
class indicated on the rating plate of the
appliance:
Climate
class
SN +10°C to + 32°C
N +16°C to + 32°C
ST +16°C to + 38°C
T +16°C to + 43°C
Ambient temperature
Only service is allowed to replace the
lighting device. Contact your Authorised
Service Centre.
7.2 Location
It must be possible to
disconnect the appliance
from the mains power
supply; the plug must
therefore be easily
accessible after installation.
The appliance should be installed well
away from sources of heat such as
radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc.
Ensure that air can circulate freely around
the back of the cabinet. 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 100mm. Ideally, however, the
appliance should not be positioned
below overhanging wall units. One or
more adjustable feet at the base of the
cabinet ensure that the appliance stands
level.

CAUTION!
In order to guarantee proper
functioning in ambient
temperature above 38°C, it
is advised to have a 30mm
separation between the
sides of the appliance and
surrounding furniture.
7.3 Levelling
When placing the appliance ensure that
it stands level. This can be achieved by
two adjustable feet at the bottom in
front.
ENGLISH 13
7.4 Electrical connection
• Before plugging in, ensure that the
voltage and frequency shown on the
rating plate correspond 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 supply socket is not
earthed, connect the appliance 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 observed.
• This appliance complies with the
E.E.C. Directives.
7.5 Door reversibility
In case you want to change the opening
direction of the door, contact the nearest
Authorised Service Centre. The
Authorised Service specialist will carry
out the reversibility of the doors at your
cost.
