5.2 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.
CAUTION!
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

under "rising time", the
defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
5.3 Opening and closing the lid

6. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
6.1 Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some hints:
• The maximum quantity of food which
can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on
the rating plate.
• The freezing process takes 24 hours.
No further food to be frozen should be
added during this period.
• Freeze only 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.
www.electrolux.com8
6.2 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 store to the freezer
in the shortest possible time;
• not open the lid 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.
7. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
7.1 Periodic cleaning
CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before
carrying out any maintenance
operation.
Do not use detergents,
abrasive products, highly
perfumed cleaning products
or wax polishes to clean the
inner side of the appliance.
Prevent damage to the
cooling system.
There is no need to clean the
compressor area.
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Regularly clean the appliance and the
accessories with warm water and
neutral soap.

3. Fully dry the appliance.
4.
Connect the mains plug to the mains
socket.
5. Switch on the appliance.
7.2 Defrosting the freezer
CAUTION!
Never use sharp metal tools
to scrape off frost as you
could damage the appliance.
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.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 10-15 mm.
The amount of frost on the walls of the
appliance will be increased by the high
level of the outer environment humidity
and if the frozen food is not wrapped
properly.
The best time to defrost the freezer when
it contains no or only a little food.
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
3. Leave the lid open , remove the plug
from the defrost water drain and
collect all defrost water on a tray.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly and refit the plug.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to
obtain the maximum coldness and run
ENGLISH

the appliance for two or three hours
using this setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food
into the compartment.
7.3 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Switch off the appliance and
disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
2. Remove all food
