DAILY USE

Use of the fridge compartment

The temperature of this compartment may
be regulated between +2°C and +8°C.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the set temperature.

A medium setting is generally the most
suitable.

The exact setting should be chosen keep­ing in mind that the temperature inside the
appliance depends on:

• room temperature

• how often the door is opened

• the quantity of food stored

• the location of the appliance.
Important! If the ambient temperature is

high or the appliance is fully loaded, and the
appliance is set to the lowest temperatures,
it may run continuously causing frost to
form on the rear wall. In this case the
Temperature regulator must be set to a
higher temperature to allow automatic
defrosting and therefore reduced energy
consumption.

Taste Guard Filter

Your appliance is equipped with a carbon
filter behind the air lever flap.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odours in the fridge compartment preserv­ing food quality.
On delivery the filter is in a plastic bag. Re­fer to "Installation of the Taste Guard filter"
for instructions.

Important! Make sure that the air lever flap
is closed to obtain proper function.

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of runners so that the shelves
can be positioned as desired.
Some shelves must be lifted up by the rear
edge to enable them to be removed.

Important! Do not move the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer to ensure
correct air circulation.

Vegetable Drawer

The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and
vegetables.
Some models have a separator inside the
drawer that can be placed in different posi­tions to allow for the subdivision best suited
to personal needs.
All parts inside the drawer can be removed
for cleaning purposes.

Bottle rack

Place the bottles (with the opening facing
front) in the pre-positioned shelf.

Important! If the shelf is positioned
horizontally, place only closed bottles.

This bottle holder shelf can be tilted in order
to store previously opened bottles. To ob­tain this result, pull the shelf up so it can ro­tate upwards and be placed on the next
higher level.

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:

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

•position food so that air can circulate
freely around it

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.

electrolux 9

gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the
arrows until it comes free, then reposition
as required.

Important! Do not move the lower door
shelf to ensure correct air circulation.

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 temperature inside the fridge

• A suitable temperature inside the fridge is
approx. +5° C. When the temperature
regulator is set to +5° C this represents
the mean temperature in the fridge. It is
normal with higher temperature in the top
of the fridge. If the temperature regulator
is set to a cold temperature, the ambient
temperature is high or if the fridge is fully
loaded the compressor will run for a lon­ger time. If too cold, change to a higher
temperature setting.

10 electrolux

Important! Do not place food against or

close to the temperature sensor. This can
result in too cold temperatures.

• If you want to check the temperature of
food stored in the refrigerator, place a
glass of water centrally in the cabinet,
and put a proper thermometer with an
accuracy of +/– 1 °C into it. After 6 hours
the temperature can be monitored. The
