accessories with lukewarm water and
some neutral soap so as to remove the

typical smell of a brand-new product,
then dry thoroughly.

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

3.2 Freezing fresh food

3.3 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 on the higher settings.

In the event of accidental de­frosting, for example due to a
power failure, if the power has
been off for longer than 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).

ENGLISH 7

The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen
and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the FROST­MATIC function at least 24 hours before
placing the food to be frozen in the
freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the
two top compartments.
The maximum amount of food that can
be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the
rating plate, a label located on the in­side of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: dur­ing this period do not add other food to
be frozen.
To utilize the maximum quantity indica­ted on the rating plate, remove all the
drawers from the freezer compartment.
To guarantee the best functionality and
performance of the appliance, the food
must be not placed in contact with the
back wall of the freezer in the area as
shown in the figure.

4. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

4.1 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 thor-

oughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

• prepare food in small portions to ena-

ble 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;

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

4.2 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.

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 Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the
top compartment.

ENGLISH 9

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.

www.aeg.com

10

To remove the frost, follow the instruc­tions below:

1.

Switch off the appliance.

2.

Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put
it in a cool place.

CAUTION!

Do not touch frozen goods with
wet hands. Hands can freeze to
the goods.

3.

Leave the door open and insert the
plastic scraper in the appropriate
seating at the bottom centre, plac­ing a basin underneath to collect the
defrost water.

In order to speed up the defrost­ing process, place a pot of warm
water in the freezer compart­ment. In addition, remove pieces
of ice that break away before de­frosting is complete.

4.

When defrosting is completed, dry
the interior thoroughly and keep the
scraper for future use.

5.

Switch on the appliance.

6.

After two or three hours, reload the
previously removed food into the
compartment.

5.3 Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for
long periods, take the following precau­tions:

• disconnect the appliance from elec-

tricity supply

• remove all food

Never use sharp metal tools to scrape
off frost from the evaporator as you
could damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.

• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the ap­pliance and all accessories

• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent
unpleasant smells.

If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some­body to check it once in a while to pre­vent the food inside from spoiling in
case of a power failure.

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ

Pour votre sécurité et garantir une utili­sation correcte de l'appareil, lisez atten­tivement cette notice, y compris les con­seils et avertissements, avant d'installer
et d'utiliser l'appareil pour la première
fois. Pour éviter toute erreur ou accident,
veillez à ce que toute personne qui utili­se l'appareil connaisse bien son fonc­tionnement et ses fonctions de sécurité.
Conservez cette notice avec l'appareil. Si
l'appareil doit être vendu ou cédé à une
autre personne, veillez à remettre cette
notice au nouveau propriétaire, afin qu'il
puisse se familiariser avec son fonction­nement et sa sécurité.
Pour la sécurité des personnes et des
biens, conservez et respectez les consi­gnes de sécurité figurant dans cette no­tice. Le fabricant décline toute responsa­bilité en cas de dommages dus au non­respect de ces instructions.

1.1 Sécurité des enfants et
des personnes vulnérables

• Cet appareil n'est pas destiné à être
utilisé par des enfants ou des person­nes dont les capacités physiques, sen­sorielles ou mentales, ou le manque
d'expérience et de connaissance les
empêchent d'utiliser l'appareil sans
risque lorsqu'ils sont sans surveillance
ou en l'absence d'instruction d'une
personne responsable qui puisse leur
assurer une utilisation de l'appareil
sans danger.

Empêchez les enfants de jouer avec
l'appareil.

• Ne laissez pas les différents emballa­ges à portée des enfants. Ils pour­raient s'asphyxier.

• Si l'appareil doit être mis au rebut,
veillez à couper le câble d'alimenta­tion électrique au ras de l'appareil
pour éviter les risques d'électrocution.
Démontez la porte pour éviter que
des enfants ne restent enfermés à l'in­térieur.

• Cet appareil est muni de fermetures
magnétiques. S'il remplace un appa­reil équipé d'une fermeture à ressort,
nous vous conseillons de rendre celle­ci inutilisable avant de vous en débar-

rasser. Ceci afin d'éviter aux enfants
de s'enfermer dans l'appareil et de
mettre ainsi leur vie en danger.

1.2 Consignes générales de
sécurité

AVERTISSEMENT

Veillez à ce que les orifices de ventila­tion, situés dans l'enceinte de l'appareil
ou la structure intégrée, ne soient pas
obstrués.

• Les appareils sont destinés unique­ment à la conservation des aliments
et/ou des boissons dans le cadre d’un
usage domestique normal, tel que ce­lui décrit dans la présente notice.

• N'utilisez pas d'appareils électriques,
d'agents chimiques ou tout autre sys­tème artificiel pour accélérer le pro­cessus de dégivrage.

• Ne faites pas fonctionner d'appareils
électriques (comme des sorbetières
électriques, ...) à l'intérieur des appa­reils de réfrigération à moins que cet­te utilisation n'ait reçu l'agrément du
fabricant.

• N'endommagez pas le circuit frigorifi­que.

• Le circuit frigorifique de l’appareil
contient de l’isobutane (R600a), un gaz
naturel offrant un haut niveau de com­patibilité avec l’environnement mais
qui est néanmoins inflammable.

Pendant le transport et l'installation
de votre appareil, assurez-vous qu'au­cune partie du circuit frigorifique n'est
endommagée.

Si le circuit frigorifique est endomma­gé :

– évitez les flammes vives et toute au-

tre source d'allumage

– aérez soigneusement la pièce où se

trouve l'appareil

• Ne modifiez pas les spécifications de
l'appareil. Si le câble d'alimentation
est endommagé, il peut causer un
court circuit, un incendie et/ou une
électrocution.

Le voyant s'éteint.

2.3 Réglage de la température

La température régnant à l'intérieur de
l'appareil est contrôlée par le thermostat
situé sur la partie supérieure de l'appa­reil.
Pour utiliser l'appareil, procédez comme
suit :

• tournez le thermostat sur la position
minimale pour obtenir moins de froid.

• tournez le thermostat sur la position
maximale pour obtenir plus de froid.

Un réglage intermédiaire est gé­néralement le plus indiqué.

Toutefois, on obtiendra le réglage exact
en tenant compte du fait que la tempé­rature à l'intérieur de l'appareil dépend
de plusieurs facteurs :

• la température ambiante

• la fréquence d'ouverture de la porte

• la quantité d'aliments stockés

• l'emplacement de l'appareil.

2.4 Fonction FROSTMATIC

congélation des aliments frais et protè­ge en même temps les denrées déjà en­treposées contre un réchauffement indé­sirable.
Pour activer cette fonction, procédez
comme suit :

1.

Appuyez sur la touche FROSTMA­TIC.

2.

Le voyant FROSTMATIC s'allume.
Pour désactiver cette fonction, procédez
comme suit :

Le voyant FROSTMATIC s'éteint.

La fonction FROSTMATIC se
désactive automatiquement au
bout d'environ 52 heures.

2.5 Alarme de température
excessive

Lorsque la température interne du con­gélateur remonte anormalement et a
pour conséquence une conservation des
aliments congelés inappropriée (en cas
de coupure du courant par exemple), le
voyant Alarme clignote et l'alarme sono­re retentit.

1.

Faites cesser la tonalité d'alarme en

appuyant sur la touche FROSTMA-

TIC.

Le voyant d'alarme clignote jusqu'à

ce que la température requise soit

rétablie.

Lorsque le congélateur est mis
en service pour la première fois,
le voyant Alarme clignote jusqu'à
ce que la température normale
de conservation des aliments
congelées soit atteinte.
