5. DAILY USE

WARNING!Refer to Safety chapters.

www.aeg.com8

5.1 Positioning the doorshelvesTo permit storage of food packages ofvarious sizes, the door shelves can beplaced at different heights.

2. Reposition as required.

5.2 Movable shelvesThe walls of the refrigerator areequipped with a series of runners so thatthe shelves can be positioned as desired.

A

B

Do not move the glass shelfabove the vegetable drawerand the bottle shelf toensure correct air circulation.

5.3 Freezing fresh foodThe freezer compartment is suitable forfreezing fresh food and storing frozenand deep-frozen food for a long time.

To freeze small amount of fresh foods itis not necessary to change the presentsetting.

To freeze fresh food activate theFROSTMATIC function at least 24 hoursbefore placing the food to be frozen inthe freezer compartment.

The maximum amount of food that canbe frozen in 24 hours is specified on therating plate, a label located on the insideof the appliance.

The freezing process lasts 24 hours:during this period do not add other foodto be frozen.

When the freezing process is completed,return to the required temperature (see"FROSTMATIC Function").

In this condition, therefrigerator compartmenttemperature might dropbelow 0°C. If this occursreset the temperatureregulator to a warmersetting.

5.4 ThawingDeep-frozen or frozen food, prior tobeing used, can be thawed in therefrigerator compartment or at roomtemperature, depending on the timeavailable for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked stillfrozen, directly from the freezer: in thiscase, cooking will take longer.

5.5 DYNAMICAIRThe refrigerator compartment isequipped with a device that allows forrapid cooling of foods and more uniformtemperature in the compartment.

ENGLISH 9

This device activates by itself whenneeded, for example for a quicktemperature recovering after dooropening or when the ambienttemperature is high.

It is possible to switch on the devicemanually when needed (refer to"DYNAMICAIR function").

The DYNAMICAIR devicestops when the door is openand restarts immediatelyafter the door closing.

5.6 Ice-cube productionThis appliance is equipped with one ormore trays for the production of ice-cubes.

Do not use metallicinstruments to remove thetrays from the freezer.

1. Fill these trays with water2. Put the ice trays in the freezer

compartment.

5.7 Cold accumulatorsThe freezer contains at least one coldaccumulator which increases storagetime in the event of a power cut orbreakdown.

6. HINTS AND TIPS

6.1 Normal operating soundsThe following sounds are normal duringoperation:

• A faint gurgling and bubbling soundfrom coils sound when refrigerant ispumped.

• A whirring and pulsating sound fromthe compressor when refrigerant ispumped.

• A sudden cracking noise from insideappliance caused by thermicdilatation (a natural and notdangerous physical phenomenon).

• A faint click noise from thetemperature regulator when thecompressor switches on or off.

6.2 Hints for energy saving• Do not open the door frequently or

leave it open longer than absolutelynecessary.

• If foreseen, do not remove the coldaccumulators from the freezer basket.

6.3 Hints for fresh foodrefrigerationTo obtain the best performance:

• do not store warm food orevaporating liquids in the refrigerator

• do cover or wrap the food, particularlyif it has a strong flavour

• position food so that air can circulatefreely around it

6.4 Hints for refrigerationUseful hints:

• Meat (all types) : wrap in polythenebags and place on the glass shelfabove the vegetable drawer.

• For safety, store in this way only oneor two days at the most.

• Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc. :these should be covered and may beplaced on any shelf.

• Fruit and vegetables: these should bethoroughly cleaned and placed in thespecial drawer(s) provided.

www.aeg.com10

• Butter and cheese: these should beplaced in special airtight containers orwrapped in aluminium foil orpolythene bags to exclude as muchair as possible.

• Bottles: these need a cap and shouldbe stored on the door bottle shelf, or(if equipped) on the bottle rack.

• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic,if not packed, must not be kept in therefrigerator.

6.5 Hints for freezingTo help you make the most of thefreezing process, here are someimportant hints:

• the maximum quantity of food whichcan be frozen in 24 hours is shown onthe rating plate;

• the freezing process takes 24 hoursno further food to be frozen shouldbe added during this period;

• freeze only top quality, fresh andthoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

• prepare food in small portions toenable it to be rapidly and completelyfrozen and to make it possiblesubsequently to thaw only thequantity required;

• wrap up the food in aluminium foil orpolythene and make sure that thepackages are airtight;

• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food totouch food which is already frozen,

thus avoiding a rise in temperature ofthe latter;

• lean foods store better and longerthan fatty ones; salt reduces thestorage life of food;

• water ices, if consumed immediatelyafter removal from the freezercompartment, can possibly cause theskin to be freeze burnt;

• it is advisable to show the freezing indate on each individual pack toenable you to keep tab of the storagetime.

6.6 Hints for storage of frozenfoodTo obtain the best performance from thisappliance, you should:

• make sure that the commerciallyfrozen foodstuffs were adequatelystored by the retailer;

• be sure that frozen foodstuffs aretransferred from the foodstore to thefreezer in the shortest possible time;

• not open the door frequently or leaveit open longer than absolutelynecessary;

• once defrosted, food deterioratesrapidly and cannot be refrozen;

• do not exceed the storage periodindicated by the food manufacturer.

7. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!Refer to Safety chapters.

7.1 General warnings

CAUTION!Unplug the appliance beforecarrying out anymaintenance operation.

This appliance containshydrocarbons in its coolingunit; maintenance andrecharging must thereforeonly be carried out byauthorized technicians.

The accessories and parts ofthe appliance are notsuitable for washing in adishwasher.

7.2 Periodic cleaning

CAUTION!Do not pull, move ordamage any pipes and/orcables inside the cabinet.

CAUTION!Take care of not to damagethe cooling system.

ENGLISH 11

CAUTION!When moving the cabinet,lift it by the front edge toavoid scratching the floor.

The equipment has to be cleanedregularly:

1. Clean the inside and accessories withlukewarm water and some neutralsoap.

2. Regularly check the door seals andwipe clean to ensure they are cleanand free from debris.

3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.4. If accessible, clean the condenser

and the compressor at the back ofthe appliance with a brush. This operation will improve theperformance of the appliance andsave electricity consumption.

7.3 Defrosting of therefrigeratorFrost is automatically eliminated from theevaporator of the refrigeratorcompartment every time the motorcompressor stops, during normal use.The defrost water drains out through atrough into a special container at theback of the appliance, over the motorcompressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean thedefrost water drain hole in the middle ofthe refrigerator compartment channel toprevent the water overflowing anddripping onto the food inside.

7.4 Defrosting the freezerThe freezer compartment is frost free.This means that there is no build up offrost when it is in operation, neither onthe internal walls nor on the foods.

The absence of frost is due to thecontinuous circulation of cold air insidethe compartment, driven by anautomatically controlled fan.

7.5 Periods of non-operationWhen the appliance is not in use for longperiods, take the following precautions:

1. Disconnect the appliance fromelectricity supply.

2. Remove all food.3. Clean the appliance and all

accessories.4. Leave the door/doors open to

prevent unpleasant smells.

WARNING!If the cabinet will be kept on,ask somebody to check itonce in a while to preventthe food inside from spoilingin case of a power failure.
