Manual

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 or to the fixed freezer shelves.

• 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.

Making ice cubes

The appliance is provided with one or more trays for

ice-cubes trays.

Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand

and place them in the freezer compartment.

To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight

twist.

Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove

the trays from the freezer.

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.

Do not cover the shelves with any protective

material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which

may obstruct the air circulation through them.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are

some more useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & wild fowl): wrap in

polythene bags and place on top of the salad

crispers.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way for

one or two days at the most.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly

cleaned and placed in the bottom salad crispers.

Butter & 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.

Thawing

Frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in

the fridge or at room temperature depending on the

time available. Small food items may even be cooked

from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer.

Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally

should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown

away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has

not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and

then refrozen.

Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the

refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat

can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must

ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.

Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling

water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in

the oven in their aluminium wrapping.

A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing

any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the

oven instructions, particularly regarding the

placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in

the oven.

Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.

Frozen food storage

When first starting-up or after a period of use, before

putting the products in the freezer compartment let

the appliance run for at least two hours on the

coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the

normal opertion position.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the

manufacturer.

Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it

open longer than is absolutely necessary.

Important

Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in

the freezer compartment.

Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin

burns.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands

are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or

“frost/freezer burns”.

If I want my fridge-freezer to be colder, should I choose for a higher or lower setting? Verified

With most fridge-freezers a higher setting means the machine will cool harder. With a lower setting, the machine will cool less hard and the temperature in the fridge-freezer will be higher.

The drain hole in my fridge-freezer is dirty/clogged, how do I clean it? Verified

There are special cleaning devices to do this, but it is also possible to remove blockage or dirt with a cotton swab. To keep the drain hole clean and prevent smells it is advisable to put a drop of chlorine bleach in the drain 4 times a year.

How often should I defrost my freezer? Verified

For optimal use of the freezer it is best to defrost it once every 3-6 months. Ice on the inside of the freezer reduces the available space and increases the use of energy. The thawing process can be accelerated by placing hot water in the drawer or placing bowls of hot water in the freezer.

My fridge-freezer makes a bubbling sound, is that normal? Verified

Modern fridge-freezers make use of an environmentally friendly cooling agent. During the cooling process this substance turns into a gas, which can cause a bubbling and/or hissing sound. This is perfectly normal.

This was helpful (2299) Read more

I bought a new fridge-freezer, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the fridge-freezer needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

Is it normal that water or ice drops are forming on the back wall of my fridge-freezer? Verified

Yes, this a completely normal phenomenom. The moisture that enters the fridge-freezer with warm air or products will settle on the coldest part, being the back wall. Because the back wall can reach temperatures below freezing, the drops will freeze from time to time. When the fridge-freezer is idle the drops will thaw and flow to the drain of the fridge-freezer.

De door of my fridge-freezer will not close properly, why is that? Verified

The two most common causes are that the fridge-freezer is not level and that the door seal is damaged or has food remains on it. Make sure the fridge-freezer is level and check the door seal. Replace the seal if neccesary.

How much space should I leave betwee my fridge-freezer and the wall? Verified

To ensure a good ventilation it's best to leave at least 5cm of free space on both sides and the back of the fridge-freezer.

I want to know the age of my Electrolux appliance. How do I do that? Verified

You can determine the age of your product by using the serial number. This can be found on your device. The first character of the serial number indicates a year (ie: 1 = 2001) and the two characters after that indicate the week of production (ie: 35 = week 35 of that year). So the serial number 13500016 indicates that the machine is from week 35 of the year 2001.

The stars indicate the freezing capacity. 1 star indicates a freezing capacity down to -6ºC. This makes the freezer suitable for making ice cubes or storing previously frozen goods for up to two weeks. Fresh food cannot be frozen. 2 stars indicates a freezing capacity down to -12ºC. This makes the freezer suitable for storing previously frozen goods for up to two months. Fresh food cannot be frozen. 3 stars indicates a freezing capacity down to -18ºC. This makes the freezer suitable

How long does it take for my refrigerator to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the refrigerator. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator cannot be measured properly by feeling the air inside. The best way to tell if the refrigerator has reached the set temperature is to place a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it.

There is condensation in my refrigerator, why is that? Verified

There can be several causes. The door gasket can be defective, allowing outside air into the refrigerator. It's also possible that the refrigerator is not level, preventing the door from closing correctly. Another cause is a large difference between the temperature inside the refrigerator and outside while the door is being opened frequently.

This was helpful (617) Read more

Can I put warm food or drinks in my fridge-freezer? Verified

Preferably not. The temperature in your fridge-freezer will rise, which negatively impacts the other items that are stored inside.

What is R-410A? Verified

R-410A is a cooling agent that is used in appliances that cool up to 0°C, like refrigerators and air conditioners. It is the replacement of older cooling agents and does not damage the ozon layer.

There is mold on the rubber seals of my fridge-freezer, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the fridge-freezer and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.
