SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

In the interest of your safety and to ensure
the correct use, before installing and first
using the appliance, read this user manual
carefully, including its hints and warnings.
To avoid unnecessary mistakes and acci­dents, it is important to ensure that all
people using the appliance are thoroughly
familiar with its operation and safety fea­tures. Save these instructions and make
sure that they remain with the appliance if
it is moved or sold, so that everyone using
it through its life will be properly informed
on appliance use and safety.
For the safety of life and property keep
the precautions of these user's instruc­tions as the manufacturer is not responsi­ble for damages caused by omission.

1.1 Children and vulnerable
people safety

• This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with re­duced physical, sensory or mental ca­pabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been giv­en supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person re­sponsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to en­sure that they do not play with the ap­pliance.

• Keep all packaging well away from chil­dren. There is risk of suffocation.

• If you are discarding the appliance pull
the plug out of the socket, cut the con­nection cable (as close to the appliance
as you can) and remove the door to
prevent playing children to suffer elec­tric shock or to close themselves into it.

• If this appliance featuring magnetic
door seals is to replace an older appli­ance having a spring lock (latch) on the
door or lid, be sure to make that spring
lock unusable before you discard the
old appliance. This will prevent it from
becoming a death trap for a child.

1.2 General safety

failure) is indicated by flashing of the
Alarm light.
When normal conditions are restored the
Alarm light will switch off automatically.

3.1 Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first
time, wash the interior and all internal 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

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 Action
Freeze 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 rat-
ing 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.

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).

3.4 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.

3.5 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 not use metallic instruments to
remove the trays from the freezer.

4. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

ENGLISH 7

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 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;

• 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/dam-

www.electrolux.com

age 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.

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.

ENGLISH 9

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

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

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.

• 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.

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.
