How to use the BRITA MAXTRA filter cartridge
Step 1: Preparing the cartridge
To prepare your BRITA filter cartridge, please remove the protective wrapper (note: car­tridge and inside wrapper may appear moist, this is simply condensation). Immerse the cartridge in cold water and shake it gently to remove any air bubbles. The filter now is ready to use. As required for some other water filter car­tridges, there is no need to pre-soak the new Maxtra Cartridge.

Step 2: Insert in the water tank
Remove the tank lid. Before inserting the car­tridge, remove the funnel and clean it thor­oughly by rising it and wiping it dry. Then, thoroughly clean the inside of the water tank with a dump cloth and wipe it dry as well. Place the cartridge into the filter tank and push downwards until it 'clicks' firmly into place. The cartridge should stay in place if the funnel is turned upside down.
Step 3: Rinse the cartridge
2x 3x=ok
Take the funnel out of the BRITA water filter unit, fill it under the tap with cold tap water and allow it to filter through. Discard the first two fillings into the sink. These first two fillings are used to flush the filter cartridge. Then, place the funnel back into BRITA water filter unit. Place the cover back onto the jug and press it carefully downwards to ensure it fits cor­rectly into place.
Step 4: Refill the water tank
Page 10
10 electrolux
To fill the tank with cold water, simply open the flip top lid, take a jug of tap water and pour it inside the tank through the cover as shown into the picture (use the lid every time that you want to fill your water).
Important! In order to avoid risk of spillage of water during closing and opening of the refrigerator door, we recommend to not fill completely the water tank but leave a head space of air (max. refilling limit till the frontal marks).
If you have not used all filtered water in the water tank within 1-2 days, please discard any water left inside the BRITA water filter unit before refilling it.
Allow the water to filter through and repeat "Step 4" as many times as you want until the BRITA water filter unit is filled up.

Important information
• The fridge door valve hole must be closed with the Water Valve during the regular functioning of the appliance.
• Use only drinking water. The use of any other drink type can leave residues, taste or odor in the reservoir and in the tap.
• It is possible to hear some noises caused by air entering when the water left the res­ervoir.
• In case the water does not flow well, press the driving lever once again. Keep the glass below the tap for some instants, in order to assure that all the water is collec­ted by the glass.
• Do not use gasified drinks, such as soft drinks. The drink can leak due to the gas pressure.
• Remember that water is a foodstuff. Please consume filtered water within one to two days.
• Should your BRITA water filter unit not be in use for a prolonged period (e.g. vaca­tion), we recommend that you discard any water left inside the system and leave the cartridge inside the filter tank. Before using the system again take out the cartridge and repeat steps 1 to 4 of "How to use the BRITA MAXTRA filter cartridge".
• The BRITA water filter unit is designed for use only with municipally treated tap water (note: this water is constantly controlled and according to legal regulations safe to drink) or with water from private supplies which has been tested safe to drink. If an instruction is received from the au­thorities that mains water must be boiled, the BRITA filtered water has also to be boiled. When the instruction to boil water is no longer in force, the entire filter system must be cleaned and a new cartridge in­serted.
More information on the use of BRITA filter cartridges and the Memo can be found in the BRITA information guide.

You can purchase new BRITA filter car­tridges and Memo through consumer service network of Electrolux or BRITA.
Helpful hints and tips
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 continuously, 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 consumption.
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
• p osit ion f ood s o tha t air can circulate freely around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
electrolux 13
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 special 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 refrigerator.
Care and Cleaning
Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and re­charging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• 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.
Important! Do no t p ul l, m ov e o r d ama ge an y 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 dam­age 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 appli­ance and save electricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemicals that can attack/damage 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.

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. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.
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
