3.5 Carbon Air Filter
CLEANAIR CONTROL
3.6 LONGFRESH
Compartment
In the LONGFRESH 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.
You can therefore store a variety of fresh
food in the LONGFRESH 0°C compart-
ENGLISH 9
Your appliance is equipped with a carbon filter CLEANAIR CONTROL behind
a flap in the rear wall of the fridge compartment.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odours in the fridge and LONGFRESH
compartment meaning that the storage
quality will be further improved.
During the operation, always
keep the air ventilation flap
closed.
ment, 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.
The LONGFRESH 0°C compartment is
also suitable for defrosting food.
In this case the thawed food can be stored up to two days .
3.7 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.
www.aeg.com

3.8 Longfresh drawers
The humidity is not adjustable.
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 remove.
Remove all drawers to store large
quantities of foods.

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.)
www.aeg.com
12
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 Longfresh 0°C compartment
is also suitable for slow thawing
of food. In this case the thawed
food can be stored in the Longfresh 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.
4. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
• 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 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 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.
4.1 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.
4.2 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
4.3 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.
4.4 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;
ENGLISH 13
• 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.
4.5 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.
5. 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.
5.1 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.
The lowest shelf, dividing the cooler
compartment from the LONGFRESH 0°C
compartment can be removed only for
cleaning. To remove pull out the shelf
straight.
The cover plates above the drawers in
the compartment can be taken out for
cleaning.
www.aeg.com
14
To make sure fully functionality of the
LONGFRESH 0°C compartment the lowest shelf and cover plates must be put
back in their original position after cleaning.
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.
5.2 Replacing the carbon filter
To get best performance the carbon air
filter should be changed once every
year.
New active air filters can be purchased
from your local dealer.
Refer to “Installation of the carbon air filter” for the instructions.
The air filter is a consumable accessory
and as such is not covered by the guarantee.
5.3 Defrosting of the
refrigerator
Defrosting of the fridge compartment is
automatic.
The water that forms flows into a recipient on the compressor and evaporates.
This recipient cannot be removed.
5.4 Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the
top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
About 12 hours prior to defrosting, set the Temperature regulator toward higher settings, in order to build up sufficient chill reserve for the interruption in operation.
