fridge reaches +9°C or below.
Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature
setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the
cabinet.
It is not necessary to reset the temperature when the cabinet is switched on
after it has been out of use. The electronics recalls the previously set
temperature.

Temperature inside the fridge

A suitable temperature inside the fridge is approx. +5°C. Storage
temperature in the cabinet is even on all of the shelf levels. The vegetable
box which is placed in the bottom has a temperature of 3-4°C warmer than
the intended temperature setting.

HINT and TIPS

Saving energy

· Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is placed. See the section

"Installation". When installed correctly, the cabinet will consume less
energy.

· 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.

· Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure safer defrosting of foods

and reduce the work of the refrigeration unit

· It is advisable to periodically clean the refrigeration system at the back of

the appliance with a duster or vacuum cleaner.

· Always leave warm food to cool down to room temperature before

placing in the fridge.

Protect the environment

· Hand over the cabinet packaging and discarded fridges and freezers to a

recycling station. Contact your local council or Environmental Health office
for more information.

13

AEG/Electrolux 8184261-00/9

Wash the outer cabinet with warm
soapy water. Remove the ventilation
grille (see the section "Removing the
ventilation grille") and
vacuum-clean under the cabinet.
Once or twice a year dust t he
condenser (black grille) and the
compressor at the back of the
appliance, with a brush or vacuum
cleaner, as an accumulation of dust
will affect the performance of the
appliance and cause excessive
electricity consumption.

When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching the
floor.

Servicing and cleaning the water dispenser.

Never use cleaning agents with a grinding or aggressive effect.
When necessary, clean the surfaces of the dispenser and the water container
that are accessible from the outside, using only a soft cloth and warm water.
The dispenser drip bowl can be cleaned with a tepid solution of washing up
liquid.
If the system is not be used for a long period turn off t he water connection to
the refrigerator. A filter that has been in service shall not be exposed to
temperatures below 0 °C as cracking of the filter body may occur due to
freezing expansion.
If the filter still is to be preserved for later reuse, suitable storage
temperature will be +5 °C.
When the refrigerator is to be used again, rinse the system through
thoroughly by draining off at least three litres (5 pints) of water.
If necessary, all systems containing water m ust be sanitized by ordering the
necessary sanitizing kit through Electrolux Service Force Centre
(tel: [phone]) or through our website www.electrolux.co.uk.

Service during operation
The water filter is replaced as follows:

Place a piece of kitchen tissue or a dishcloth in the space under the filter.
Remove the filter by turning it clockwise. A small amount of water will run
out. Dry off and fit the new filter.

AEG/Electrolux 8184261-00/9

When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.

Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar to prevent
unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet is to 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.

Holiday Mode

In the holiday mode the temperature for the refrigerator is approximately
+15 °C. In the holiday mode it is therefore possible to leave the door of the
empty refrigerator closed during periods of extended absence. Advantage:
Unintentional closing of the door, or accidental closing of the door by
persons who have access to your home during your absence, is no longer
possible. Without the holiday mode leaving the door closed would lead to
the accumulation of odours and mould.
After emptying and cleaning the appliance, proceed as follows:

1. To set the holiday mode, press the "+" (WARMER) or "-" (COLDER)
button. The temperature display will change and indicate in flashing
numbers the DESIRED temperature that is currently set.

2. Hold down t he "+" (WARMER) button until the temperature display
indicates H (for holiday). The temperature shown in the temperature display
will change in steps of 1 °C until it reaches +8 °C. After +8 °C the value
+15 °C will appear in the display with the letter H. The fridge is now
operating in energy-saving holiday mode.
To switch t he fridge back to normal operation, press the "-" (COLDER)
button.
Important! Do not store any goods in the refrigerator when the holiday
mode is in operation. The temperature is regulated at about +15 °C when the
holiday mode is in operation. This is too warm for food products.

SOMETHING NOT WORKING

Before contacting your local Service Force Centre check the following
point:

Problem Possible cause / Remedy
