Use

• The domestic refrigerators and
freezers are designed to be used
specifically for the storage of edible
foodstuffs only.

• Best performance is obtained with
ambient temperature between
+18°C and +43°C (class T); +18°C
and +38°C (class ST); +16°C and
+32°C (class N); +10°C and +32°C
(class SN). The class of your
appliance is shown on its rating
plate.

Warning:

when the ambient
temperature is not included within
the range indicated for the class of
this appliance, the following
instructions must be observed:
when the ambient temperature
drops below the minimum level, the
storage temperature in the freezer
compartment cannot be
guaranteed; therefore it is advisable
to use the food stored as soon as
possible.

• Frozen food must not be re-frozen
once it has been thawed out.

• Manufacturers’ storage
recommendations should be strictly
adhered to. Refer to relevant
instructions.

• The inner lining of the appliance
consists of channels through which
the refrigerant passes. If these
should be punctured this would
damage the appliance beyond
repair and cause food loss. DO
NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS

It is perfectly normal for the
temperature alarm light to remain
flashed for a short time after the
freezer is initially turned on. It will
remain flashed until the optimum
temperature for the conservation of
frozen food is attained.

Sound signal alarm

This appliance incorporates an alarm
which gives off a sound signal when
the temperature inside the freezer has
risen to a point where the safe storage
of frozen food is no longer ensured.
This sound can be turned off pushing
the button (C).

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment is
suitable for long term storage of

commercially frozen food, and for
freezing fresh food.
If the freezer has already been working
for some time, press the Super knob
at least 12 hours before introducing
the food into the freezer in order to
ensure better freezing results.
Place the food to be frozen in the
compartment as shown in figure.

In order to freeze the quantity indicated
on the rating plate, arrange the food
directly in contact with the cooling
surfaces. If the food is frozen in the
baskets, the maximum quantity
freezable is slightly less.

Freezing Calendar

The symbols show different types of frozen
goods.

The numbers indicate storage times in
months for the appropriate types of frozen
goods. Whether the upper or lower value
of the indicated storage time is valid
depends on the quality of the foods and
pre-treating before freezing.

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.

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with one or
more trays for the production of ice­cubes. Fill these trays with water, then
put them in the freezer compartment.

Do nnot uuse mmetallic iinstruments tto
remove tthe ttrays ffrom tthe ffreezer.

Cold accumulators

2 cold accumulators are supplied in
the freezer; these increase the length
of time for which food will keep in the
event of a power failure or breakdown.
They must be placed in the top
drawer.

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 two hours on the coldest
setting, then turn the thermostat knob
to the normal operating position.

To obtain the best performance from
this appliance, you should:
if large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers and
baskets from appliance (except for the
last one at the bottom) and place food
on cooling shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed
load limit statedon the side of the
upper section (where applicable).

HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES

Because oof cconsumer ddemand, ppreservatives hhave bbeen rremoved ffrom mmany
pre-pprepared ffoods. TThis ttogether wwith tthe cchanges iin sshopping hhabits tto aa
once-aa-wweek sshop, mmean tthat ssafe hhandling aand sstorage oof ffood iis eeven mmore
important tthan eever. TThe ffollowing ttips sshould hhelp yyou tto eensure tthat tthe ffood
in yyour hhome iis iin aas pperfect ccondition aas ppossible.

• Keep the time between buying
chilled food and placing it in your
fridge as short as possible. Tests
showed that the temperature of 1
litre of orange juice rose to 22°C in
an hour between the supermarket
and home. It then took 11 hours to
get down to 7°C in the refrigerator.

• Keep the freezer door closed as
much as possible.

• Do not push food together too
much, try to allow air to circulate
around each item.

• Cool cooked food as quickly as
possible but do NOT place in the
refrigerator until cool. (Leave food
in a place as cool as possible in
order that it can then be placed in
the refrigerator as soon as
possible).

• Do not store food uncovered.

• The best way to defrost food is to put
it in the refrigerator to thaw slowly.

• Ensure that food placed in the
freezer is dated and labelled and
used in date order to ensure that
food is consumed at its best.

• It is important that food is used
before its “best before” date.

• Always wash your hands with
soapy water and dry them with a
clean towel before handling food.

• Keep work surfaces clean and
avoid cross contamination by not

using the same work surface or
knife, without washing them
thoroughly in between.

• The foods to be frozen must be
fresh and of the best quality.

• The size of each pack should be
small enough to ensure that it is
used in one go . Small packs freeze
more quickly and uniformly and give
better results.

• Frozen food, once thawed, must
not be refrozen. Lean food keeps
better and longer than fatty food,
salt reduces the storage time.

• Wrap the food in polythene or
aluminium freezing bags or foil so
that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal .

• Packaging which is swollen or has
traces of refrozen water droplets on
the pack could indicate that the
product has not been kept at a
suitable temperature and that it
may have lost its original quality.
Partially thawed food must not be
refrozen, it must be consumed
within 24 hours. Never exceed the
storage times indicated by the
manufacturer.

• Never place hot food, bottles or
cans of fizzy drink in the freezer as
they may explode. Containers with
a lid must not be filled to the brim.

• Do not open the door or place
extra fresh food in the freezer next

electrolux

13

to food which is already frozen as
this could cause the temperature of
the frozen food to rise and its
quality and storage life to reduce .

• The symbols on the drawers show
different types of frozen goods.

The numbers indicate storage times
in months for the appropriate types
of frozen goods. Whether the upper
or lower value of the indicated
storage time is valid depends on
the quality of the foods and pre­treating before freezing.

Defrosting

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