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

To freeze fresh food activate the Superfrost
function at least 24 hours before placing the
food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
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.
When the freezing process is completed, re­turn to the required temperature (see "Su­perfrost Function").

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.

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.

Important! 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).

Freezing Calendar

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.

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 treating before
freezing.

Natura fresh 0°C Compartment

In the Natura fresh 0°C compartment the
temperature is controlled automatically. It

electrolux 7

stays constantly at about 0°C, no adjustment
is necessary.
The constant storage temperature of about
0°C and the relative humidity of between 45
and 90 % provide optimal conditions for the
various kinds of food.

Important!

You can therefore store a variety of fresh food
in the Natura fresh 0°C compartment, where
it will last up to 3 times longer with better
quality compared to normal refrigerator com­partments. This allows you to stock more

Regulation for each drawer is separate and
is controlled using the slide valve at the front
of the drawer.

• „Dry“: low air humidity - up to 50 % relative
humidity
This humidity level is reached when both

sliders are set into this position
ventilation openings are wide open.

• Humid“: high relative humidity - up to 90%
This humidity level is reached when both

sliders are set in this position

fresh food. Taste, degree of freshness, qual­ity and nutritional values (vitamins and min­erals) are well preserved. Loss of weight in
vegetables and fruit diminishes. Food yields
a higher degree of nutritional value.

Important!

The Natura fresh 0°C compartment is also
suitable for defrosting food.
In this case the thawed food can be stored
up to two days .

Humidity control

Both drawers can be used according to the
desired storage conditions independently of
each other with lower or higher humidity.

Important!

Not to be placed in the Natura fresh 0°C
compartment:

• cold sensitive fruit which have to be stored
at cellar or room temperature like pineap­ple, bananas, grapefruit, melons, mango,
papaya, oranges, lemons, kiwi fruit.

• The types of food not mentioned above
should be stored in the refrigerator com­partment (e.g. all sorts of cheese, cold
cuts, etc.)

Important!

The level of air humidity in the drawers de­pends on the content of humidity in the stor­ed food, vegetable and fruit and on the fre­quency of door opening
The Natura fresh 0°C compartment is also
suitable for slow thawing of food. In this case
the thawed food can be stored in the Natura

• Pay attention to the freshness of the food,
especially on the expiry date. Quality and
freshness influence the storage time.

• The whole storage cycle time will depend
on the preservation conditions made prior
to the final storage in the fridge.

• Food, fruit or vegetables should always be
packed or wrapped up before storage.

• Animal food always store packed and dry.

• Food rich in proteins will go bad quicker.
This means seafood will spoil before fish
which in turn will spoil before meat. While
storing food in a Natura fresh 0°C com­partment storage time for that kind of food
can be increased by up to three times as
well without loss on quality.

• All food stored in a Natura fresh 0°C com­partment should be taken out of the draw­ers roughly 15-30 min before consump­tion, particularly fruit and vegetables to be
consumed without any additional cooking
process. Allowing fruit and vegetables to
return to room temperature will improve
the texture and flavour.

Drawer

The wire shelves inside the drawers permit
that air can circulate freely and consequently
a better conservation of foods.

The compartment has stops to prevent the
drawers from falling out when fully extended.
To remove the drawers (e.g. for cleaning pur­poses), pull them out as far as the stops, lift
and extract.. .

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

• p osit ion f ood s o tha t 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

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 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 thorough­ly cleaned, foodstuffs;

• prepare food in small portions to enable it
to be rapidly and completely frozen and to
make it possible subsequently to thaw only
the quantity required;

10 electrolux

• 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.

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.

Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Important! Do no t p ul l, m ov e o r d ama ge an y
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 or a vacuum cleaner. This operation
will improve the performance of the appli­ance and save electricity consumption.
The lowest shelf, dividing the cooler com­partment from the Natura fresh 0°C com­partment can be removed only for cleaning.
To remove pull out the shelf straight.
The cover plates above the drawers in the
compartment can be taken out for cleaning.

Important!

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.

To make sure fully functionality of the Natura
fresh 0°C compartment the lowest shelf and
cover plates must be put back in their original
position after cleaning.

Important! 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.

Defrosting of the refrigerator

Defrosting of the fridge compartment is au­tomatic.
The water that forms flows into a recipient on
the compressor and evaporates. This recip­ient cannot be removed.

Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form
around the top compartment.

Important! Defrost the freezer when the
frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5
mm.

To remove the frost, do these steps:

1. Switch off the appliance.
