4. DAILY USE

4.1 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.

then dry thoroughly.

Do not use detergents or abra­sive powders, as these will dam­age the finish.

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. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

ENGLISH 13

5.1 Normal Operating Sounds

• You may hear a faint gurgling and a
bubbling sound when the refrigerant
is pumped through the coils or tubing.
This is correct.

• When the compressor is on, the refrig­erant is being pumped around and
you will hear a whirring sound and a
pulsating noise from the compressor.
This is correct.

• The thermic dilatation might cause a
sudden cracking noise. It is natural,
not dangerous physical phenomenon.
This is correct.

5.2 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.

5.3 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

5.4 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.
Fruits and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the
special drawer(s) provided. When in con­tact, lemon juice can discolor the plastic
parts of your fridge. It is therefore rec­ommended to keep citruses in separate
containers.
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.
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.

5.5 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;

www.aeg.com

14

• it is advisable to show the freezing in
date on each individual pack to enable
you to keep tab of the storage time.

5.6 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;

6. CARE AND CLEANING

• 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.

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.

6.1 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.

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 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. This operation will improve
the performance of the appliance and
save electricity consumption.

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.

6.2 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 drip-

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

6.3 Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment of this model,
on the other hand, is a "no frost" type.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING

ENGLISH 15

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
compartment, driven by an automatically
controlled fan.

CAUTION!

Before troubleshooting, discon­nect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or
competent person must do the
troubleshooting that is not in this
manual.

There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refriger­ant circulation).

Problem Possible cause Solution
