Prior to Initial Start–Up
Before connecting the appliance to the mains and putting it into ope-
1
ration for the first time, leave the appliance to stand for 30 minutes if
was transported upright. After transport on its side, the appliance must
be left to stand for 4 hours before putting it into operation. This is
necessary to allow the refrigerant to flow back into the compressor.
Otherwise the compressor may be damaged.
0 Please clean the appliance interior and all accessories prior to initial
start-up (see section: “Maintenance and Cleaning”).
Initial use
1 Mains power light (green)
2 Temperature regulator and ON/OFF-switch
The temperature regulator is also the ON/OFF-switch.
A coin is needed to turn the temperature regulator. This makes it more
difficult to change the temperature setting accidentally (child protection).
Position "0" means:
Off
Position "1"means:
Highest interior temperature (warmest setting)
Position "4" means:
Lowest interior temperature (coldest setting)
818 14 28-01/5 15
Page 16
0 Plug the mains plug into the mains socket.
0 Turn the temperature regulator to the desired setting with the aid of a
coin. The green mains power light illuminates. The compressor starts
and then runs automatically.
The following effects are of significance in respect of the interior temperature:
– Ambient temperature;
– Quantity and temperature of the food stored;
– Frequency with which the door is opened and how long it is left
open.
The following temperature settings can therefor e only be considered as
recommendations that may well need to be adapted to suit your particular situation.
Recommended settings:
For normal use: position "1" to "2";
For lower temperatures: position "2" to "3".
Important!
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold setting on the temperature regulator (position "3" to "4") can cause the
compressor to run continuously in order to maintain the low temperature.
The fridge will therefore not be able to defrost as automatic defrosting
of the fridge is only possible when the compressor is not running (see
"Defrosting" section). The result is the build up of a thick layer of frost
on the fridge rear wall.
If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer setting (position "2" to "3"). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting will restart.
Switching the Appliance Off
0 To switch off, turn the temperature r egulator to position "0". The mains
power light goes out.
If the appliance is not to be used for an extended period:
0 Switch off the appliance. To do this turn the temperature regulator to
position "0". The mains power light goes out.
0 Unplug or switch off at the mains supply.
0 Clean thoroughly (see section: "Maintenance and Cleaning").
0 Leave the door open to avoid the build up of odours.

Interior Accessories
Storage Shelves
0 A storage shelf must be inserted into the lower guide track above the
fruit and vegetable drawers. It must always remain in this position, so
that fruits and vegetables remain fresh longer.
The remaining storage shelves can
be adjusted to various heights:
0 Pull the storage shelf forward until
it can be tipped up or down and
removed.
0 To insert at a different height use
the same procedure in reverse.
Adjustment for tall items:
0 Remove the front half of the two-
part vario glass storage shelf and
insert it at a different level. Space is
then gained for storage of tall items
on the storage shelf below.
Bottle rack
Place bottles in the rack with the
bottleneck to the front.
Important: Only store unopened
bottles horizontally.
The bottle rack can be tilted for
storing opened bottles.
818 14 28-01/5 17
Page 18
Interior Accessories
0 To do this pull the bottle rack for-
ward until it can be tilted
upwards, then slide the front support into the next level up.
Variable Inner Door
The door compartments can be pulled up and removed, and inserted at
other positions as needed.
Drawers and Compartments
Vario drawers-set
The two large fruit and vegetable drawers can be divided with an adjustable partition (not included with all models).
18 818 14 28-01/5
Page 19
Proper Storage
Different temperature zones exist
within the refrigerator. The coldest
zone is at the bottom storage shelf
above the fruit and vegetable drawers.
The warmer zones are found at the
uppermost storage shelves and in the
door compartments. The arrangement example shows at which places
in the refrigerator suitable temperatures for various types of foods exist.
Tip: Foods should always be packa-
ged or covered in the refrigerator, in
order to avoid odour or flavour contamination to other refrigerated
goods.
The following are suited for packaging:
– plastic bags and wraps of polye-
thylene;
– plastic containers with lids;
– special plastic covers with elastic
seals;
– aluminium foil.
Defrosting
The fridge defrosts automatically
The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is
running, and defrosts when the compressor is off.
The water from the thawing frost is collected in the drain channel on
the rear of the fridge, fed through the drain hole into the collection
compartment in the base, and then evaporated.
818 14 28-01/5 19
Page 20
Hints and Tips
Normal Operating Sounds
• You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant
is pumped through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the cooling
plate/evaporator.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped round
and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.
• A thermostat controls the compressor and you will hear a faint click
when the thermostat cuts in and out.
Food Storage
To obtain the best performance from your refrigerator:
• Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids.
• Do not store food uncovered.
• Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your
refrigerator as short as possible.
• Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate
around each item.
2 Energy Saving Advice
• Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker,
dishwasher or radiator.
• Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated room and make sure
that the air openings of the appliance are not obstructed.
• Always leave warm food to cool down to room temperature before
placing in the fridge.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening the
door too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing
properly.
20 818 14 28-01/5
Page 21
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out DISCONNECT
the appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply.
Internal Cleaning
0 Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of
soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Warning!
1
• Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning
products, wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or
alcohol.
0 Clean the drain hole of the water through at regular intervals and
ensure that the drain hole is clear at all times. If blocked, carefully
clear using a piece of flexible curtain wire inserted into the drain outlet
to remove the blockage.
0 Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean
and free from debris.
External Cleaning
0 Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Warning!
1
• Do not use abrasive products
• There are sharp edges on the underside of the product so care should
be taken when cleaning.
Accumulation of dust at the condenser reduces cooling performance
2
and increases energy consumption. For this reason carefully clean the
condenser at the back of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or
a vacuum cleaner .

using a hair dryer set to a gentle heat. (do
not use a fan heater for this purpose).
This will make the rubber more supple
and allow it to revert to its original shape.
Water drain hole is blocked see "Maintenance and Cleaning".
Page 24
Symptom Solution
The compressor does not start immediately after changing the temperature setting.
This is normal, the compressor starts afte r
a period of time.
If after the above checks there is still a fault, call your local AEG Service
Force Centre.
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been
made as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical brea k down.
Please note that proof of purchase is required for in-guarantee service
calls.
Technical Terminology
• Refrigerant
Liquids that can be used to a generate a cooling effect are known as
refrigerants. They have a relatively low boiling-point, indeed so low,
that the warmth from the food stored in the fridge or freezer can
cause the refrigerant to boil and vaporise.
• Refrigerant Circuit
Closed circulation system that contains the refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit comprises primarily of an evaporator, a compressor, a
condenser and pipe work.
• Evaporator
The refrigerant is evaporated in the evaporator. Similar to all other
liquids, refrigerant requires heat to evaporate. This heat is removed
from the interior of the appliance, as a result the interior is cooled.
The evaporator is therefore located inside the appliance or placed in
foam immediately behind the inner wall and thus not visible.
• Compressor
The compressor looks like a small drum. It is driven by a built-in electric motor and is mounted on the base of the appliance at the rear.
The task of the compressor is to draw in vaporised refrigerant from
the evaporator, to compress it, and to pass it on to the condenser.
• Condenser
The condenser normally has the form of a grid. The refrigerant compressed in the compressor is liquefied in the condenser. During this
process, heat is released to the surrounding air at the surface of the
condenser. The condenser is mounted on the base of the appliance.
