or cooked immediately and then re-frozen
(after cooling).
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or
more trays for the production of ice-cubes.
Fill these trays with water, then put them in
the freezer compartment.
Important! Do not use metallic instruments
to remove the trays from the freezer.
Cold accumulators
The freezer contains at least one cold accumulator which increases storage time in the
event of a power cut or breakdown.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case,
cooking will take longer.
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 halfshelves can lie over the rear ones.
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 on the higher settings.
Important! In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to a power
failure, if the power has been off for longer
than the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising time", the
defrosted food must be consumed quickly
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 follows:
gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the
arrows until it comes free, then reposition
as required.
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
odours in the fridge and Natura fresh
0°Ccompartment meaning that the storage
quality will be further improved.
electrolux 7
Important! During the operation, always
keep the air ventilation flap closed.
Natura fresh 0°C Compartment
In the Natura fresh 0°C compartment the
temperature is controlled automatically. It
stays constantly at about 0°C, no adjustment is necessary.
The constant storage temperature of about
0°C and the relative humidity of between 45
and 90 % provide optimal conditions for the
various kinds of food.
Important!
You can therefore store a variety of fresh
food in the Natura fresh 0°C compartment,
where it will last up to 3 times longer with
better quality compared to normal refrigerator 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 diminishes.
Food yields a higher degree of nutritional value.
Important!
The Natura fresh 0°C compartment is also
suitable for defrosting food.
In this case the thawed food can be stored
up to two days .
Humidity control
Both drawers can be used according to the
desired storage conditions independently of
each other with lower or higher humidity.
Regulation for each drawer is separate 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.

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, lemons, 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.)
Important!
The level of air humidity in the drawers depends 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:
• 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 depend
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 storage.
• Animal food always store packed and dry.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad quicker.
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 vegetables
to be consumed without any additional
cooking process. Allowing fruit and vegetables to return to room temperature will
improve the texture and flavour.
Drawer
The wire shelves inside the drawers permit
that air can circulate freely and consequently a better conservation of foods.
The compartment has stops to prevent the
drawers from falling out when fully extended.
To remove the drawers (e.g. for cleaning purposes), pull them out as far as the stops, lift
and extract.. .
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 au-
tomatic 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
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it
10 electrolux
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 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.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can
be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No
further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it
to be rapidly and completely frozen and
to make it possible subsequently to thaw
only the quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene 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 appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the
retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred 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 indicated by the food manufacturer.
