Important safety instructions

4 important safety instructions electrolux refrigeration

warning

The appliance must be plugged into its own

dedicated 220-240V, 50Hz AC electrical outlet.

It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from

the mains power supply; the plug must therefore be

easily accessible after installation.

Ensure that the electric outlet is properly earthed

to ground. Consult a qualified electrician if you are

unsure.

Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.

If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced

by a service technician or a qualified person.

Unplug the appliance before cleaning and before

changing the light bulb to avoid electric shock.

Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power

cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight

out of the receptacle to prevent damaging the power

cord.

Choose a location that is not too cold - the

temperature should be above 10°C.

Put the appliance in a dry place, avoiding areas of

high moisture or humidity.

Don’t put the appliance in frosty or unprotected

areas, for example in a garage or on a verandah.

Don’t put the appliance in direct sunlight.

Don’t put the appliance near stoves, fires or heaters.

When correctly installed, your appliance should:

• have adequate clearance to the back and sides for air

circulation (refer to page 5).

• be aligned to the surrounding cupboards.

• have doors that will self-close from a partially open

position.

warning

• Have the stability foot in place (see diagram on page 5)

to prevent the appliance falling forward when a door

with heavy food load is opened.

5 installing your new appliance electrolux refrigeration

Clearance around your appliance

If you do not have a cupboard with a rear gap, the

recommended clearance area on top increases from

50mm to 90mm (x) and from 32mm to 72mm (y).

When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at least

350mm (400mm for E:Line models) on the hinge side will

allow the doors to open enough to enable the removal of

bins and shelves.

Note:

Doors are designed to sit proud of cabinetry (not flush).

Installing your appliance

The appliance should arrive with the front adjustable

rollers wound down to tilt the top of the appliance

backwards by about 10-15mm from upright.

The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will not

interfere with the operation of the rollers (see diagram in Step

3).

caution

The rollers are designed for forward or backward

movement only. They are not castors. Moving the

appliance sideways may damage your floor and

the rollers.

1. Roll the appliance into its final position.

2. The top of the appliance should be tilted back by

approximately 10-15mm (see diagram above). This will

allow the doors to self-close providing a consistent

door seal.

3. If the appliance is not tilted back, you can adjust the

two front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut

(see diagram below). This will increase the height of

the rollers. One turn of the nut will tilt the appliance

back approximately 10mm. If you have difficulty

turning the roller nut you can have someone tilt the

appliance back, so that you have better access.

Alternatively, you can access the rollers from the side,

using a flat screwdriver to help you turn the nut (see

diagram below).

4. Check the alignment of the appliance to the

surrounding cupboards. The top of the appliance

should be level from side to side (see diagram below).

If you need to adjust the level, use the adjustable

rollers as discussed in Step 3.

5. If the appliance now rocks from one corner to the

opposite rear corner, this means that the floor is

uneven; you will need to put some packing under

one of the rear rollers.You could use thin pieces of

solid material, such as thin board, vinyl floor tiles or

laminate. Place the packing so that it will sit under

one of the rear rollers when the appliance is rolled into

position.

6. On certain floor surfaces the appliance may roll

forward during operation. Where provided a “Roller

Stop” can be placed under the front rollers.

7. You may now need to fine-tune the installation by

repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5.

8. When you have the appliance in final position, wind

the stability foot down until it just makes contact with

the floor. Whenever you need to move the appliance,

be sure to wind the foot back up so that the appliance

can roll freely.

9. Clean your appliance thoroughly following the

instructions on page 10 and wipe off any dust that has

accumulated during shipping.

10. Plug the appliance into the power point. Don’t use a

double adaptor. If you need to roll the appliance out to

get at the power point, remember to raise the stability

foot before you do so.

11. We recommend that you let your appliance run for two

to three hours before you put any food in it. This will

allow you to check that it is operating properly.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed your new

appliance.

6 initial start up/electronic display controls – electronic models electrolux refrigeration

The appliance transfers heat from food placed inside the

appliance to the outside air.

This process makes the rear, the sides and the area

adjacent to the doors, particularly at initial start up, feel

warm. This is normal.

There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of

the cabinet. This coil cools and removes moisture from

the air. A fan then circulates cold, dry air throughout the

cabinet.

This air circulation means that foods are refrigerated far

more quickly than in appliances where the air remains

relatively static.

Avoid placing food against air outlets as this will affect air

circulation (see diagrams on inside cover).

A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior

of the freezer when the door is opened frequently. This

is normal and will disappear after a few days in most

climates.

Make sure you fully close the freezer door after you load

or remove food. If the door is left partly open, a heavy

frost will coat the inside of the freezer. If a frost develops,

remove it. Take care to properly close the door and the

frost will not reoccur.

Your new energy efficient appliance uses a high-speed

compressor and other energy efficient components that

may produce different noises to your old appliance.

These sounds are normal and include:

• compressor running noise.

• air movement noise from the small fan motor.

• occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.

• a popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting.

• a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor starting

up.

These noises are normal and not cause for alarm.

Further details can be found on page 11.

tips and information

• On a top mount freezer (TM) refrigerator (where the

freezer is on top of the fresh food compartment):

Do not place food forward of the ribs on the bottom

of the freezer, it will keep the door open. So make

sure food is stored behind the ribs.

• On a bottom mount freezer (BM) refrigerator, single

door all refrigerator (AR) and single door all freezer

(AF):

Ensure freezer baskets and shelves are pushed

completely back to prevent them holding the door

open.

The electronic display panel consists of an LCD display

with blue backlighting and 7 push buttons. When the

power is first turned on, you will see the default settings,

with the white backlighting on.

If no buttons have been pressed and the fridge door is

closed the backlighting will turn off after 30 seconds.

tips and information

A good indication of optimal freezer temperature is

ice cream that is frozen, but still soft enough for easy

scooping.

For the fridge compartment, we recommend using

drinking water and simply adjusting the fridge controls

until the water is at your ideal temperature.

Controlling the temperature

The default temperature for the refrigerator is 3°C, with

a default of -18°C for the freezer. If you want to change

the temperatures, use the instructions below. You should

make only small adjustments and wait 24 hours to see

whether you need to make further changes.

Note:

When you set a temperature, you set an average

temperature for the whole appliance cabinet.

Temperatures inside each compartment may vary,

depending on how much food you store and where you

place it. High or low room temperature may also affect

the actual temperature inside the appliance.

Changing the freezer temperature

Press the freezer button to make the freezer colder in 1°C

steps. Once -23°C is reached the display will return to -

14°C with the next button press. You’ll notice that the bar

graph gets smaller with colder freezer settings.

Changing the refrigerator temperature

Press the fridge button to make the fridge colder in 1°C

steps. Once 0°C is reached the display will return to 7°C

with the next button press. The bar graph gets smaller

with colder settings.

will now operate for 90 minutes. If you want to turn the

quick freeze function off before 90 minutes have passed,

simply press the quick freeze button again. The icon will

disappear and the freezer will return to normal operation.

Freezer temperature alarm

If the alarm is sounding for no apparent reason, check

whether anything is holding the door open.

If the freezer becomes too warm due to the freezer door

being left open or warm food being placed too close to the

temperature sensor in the freezer (see diagrams on inside

cover for the sensor location), a buzzer will sound, the icon

above the alarm reset button, the freezer set temperature

and bar graph will all flash until the alarm reset button is

pressed. Once pressed the alarm disable icon adjacent to

the alarm reset button will illuminate for 50 minutes, or until

the temperature reaches an acceptable level.

Make sure nothing is holding the freezer door open and

move any warm food away from the temperature sensor

(see diagrams on inside cover for the sensor location).

If the freezer is still too warm after 50 minutes the alarm

will sound again, indicating that something may be wrong

with your appliance.

Note:

The freezer temperature alarm can be reset for 12 hours

by pressing the alarm reset button continuously for 10

seconds.

Door alarm

If the refrigerator door is left open for longer than 2

minutes a buzzer will sound and an icon above the alarm

reset button will flash. The refrigerator temperature

settings and bar graph will also flash.

If you want to leave the door open while you load the

fridge, you can turn the alarm off for 8 minutes by

pressing the alarm reset button.

Drinks chill timer

To use the timer, press the drinks chill button once to set

a 10 minute time limit, twice for 20 minutes and three

times for 30 minutes. Press four times to turn the timer

off.

If you set the drinks chill timer it will sound an alarm to

remind you that you have left drinks in your freezer for

quick chilling.

An animated icon appears beside the drinks chill button

with a countdown timer.

The timer will count down in 1 minute increments; you

can change the time or turn the timer off even after the

countdown has started. When the countdown is finished

a buzzer will sound and the icon beside the alarm will

flash until the alarm reset button is pressed.

To stop the alarm and turn off the drinks chill timer, press

the alarm reset button. If your drink is chilled, take it out

of the freezer. If it is not cold enough, reset the drinks chill

function (remembering that the drink is already partially

chilled).

General information

electrolux refrigeration troubleshooting 13

Troubleshooting

If you think something may be wrong with your

refrigerator, you can carry out some easy checks before

calling for service. You may locate the problem, sparing

yourself from inconvenience and saving time and money.

problem solution

When your appliance

is not operating

• Check that the power cord is plugged

into the power outlet properly and that

the outlet is switched ‘ON’.

• Try running another appliance from the

power outlet. If no power is coming from

the outlet you may have blown a fuse

or tripped a circuit of your household

power supply.

• Try adjusting the temperature control to

a slightly “colder” position.

• It is normal for the freezer fan NOT to

operate during the automatic defrost

cycle, or for a short time after the

appliance is switched on.

When there is

refrigerator/freezer

noise

Modern refrigerators/freezers with

increased storage capacity use high

speed compressors. These can provide

a seemingly high level of sound which is

quite normal. Normal operational sounds

include:

• Occasional gurgling, similar to water

boiling.

• Air flow noise (air circulates because of

a small fan).

• A popping noise heard during automatic

defrost.

• A clicking noise heard just before

the compressor starts (this is merely

the automatic switching action of

the temperature control, turning the

compressor on or off).

Other strange sounds may mean that

you need to check and take action. For

example, noises may mean that:

• The cabinet is not level.

• The floor is uneven or weak.

• Bottles are badly placed and rattling.

• There are vibrations from an object

on top of or behind or beside the

refrigerator.

• The back of the refrigerator cabinet is

touching the wall.

Remember it is quite normal for noise

to seem louder just after the refrigerator

starts operating.

If there are odours

inside the appliance

• The interior may need cleaning.

• Some foods produce odours.

• Some containers and wrapping can

cause odours.

• Ask yourself if the odour started about

the same time you started storing

something unusual.

When the motor

seems to run more

than expected

Your new appliance provides you with

large capacities in both the refrigerator

section and the separate freezer. It is

normal for the motor to operate frequently.

However, to keep operation to a minimum,

check the following:

• Are doors kept open too long or too

often?

• Are controls set too cold? Refer to page

6 “Controlling temperature”.

• Have large amounts of warm food just

recently been stored? Summer, festive

seasons and holidays usually mean a lot

more work for your appliance.

• If the day is hot or the room is very

warm, the appliance will need to run

more than normal.

• The appliance will run more than normal

just after you install it or when it has

been turned off for a long time.

If the temperature in

the refrigerator is too

warm

• Check that the appliance has enough

clearance at the sides, back and top.

Refer to page 2 “Installing your new

appliance”.

• Refer to page 6 “Controlling

temperature”.

• You may have kept the door open too

long or too frequently.

• Food containers or packaging may be

holding a door open.

If the temperature

in the refrigerator is

too cold

• Refer to page 6 “Controlling

temperature”.

• Increase the temperature to avoid high

energy consumption.

If heavy frosting

occurs in the freezer

Make sure you fully close the freezer and

fridge doors. If the doors are left partly

open a heavy frost will coat the inside of

the freezer. If a frost develops, remove it.

Take care to properly close the doors and

the frost will not reoccur.

If water drips on the

floor

The defrost water tray, (located on the

compressor at the back of the cabinet),

may not be properly positioned, or the

drain tube may not be properly positioned

to direct water into this tray. You may need

to pull the refrigerator away from the wall

to check the tray and tube.

If you still require service

If you have a problem, and the problem persists after

you have made the checks mentioned above, contact

your nearest approved Service Centre or the dealer you

bought the refrigerator from. Be ready to quote the model

number, 9-digit PNC and 8-digit serial number, which is

stated on the label inside the refrigerator compartment.

4 Consignes importantes concernant la sécurité

Avertissement

Cet appareil doit être branché seul (sans prise

multiple) dans une prise électrique de 220-240 V, 50

Hz CA.

Il doit être possible de débrancher l’appareil de

l’alimentation générale ; par conséquent la prise doit

être facilement accessible après installation.

Veillez à ce que la prise électrique soit correctement

mise à la terre. Faites appel à un électricien

professionnel en cas de doute.

N’utilisez pas de rallonge ni d’adaptateur.

Si le cordon d’alimentation est endommagé, celui-ci

doit être remplacé par un technicien de maintenance

ou une personne qualiée.

Débranchez l’appareil avant de le nettoyer et avant

de changer l’ampoule an d’éviter les risques

d’électrocution.

Ne débranchez jamais l’appareil en tirant sur le

cordon d’alimentation. Saisissez toujours fermement

la prise et tirez droit pour ne pas endommager le

cordon d’alimentation.

Choisissez un endroit qui ne soit pas trop froid ; la

température doit être supérieure à 10 °C.

Mettez l’appareil dans un endroit sec en évitant les

zones humides.

Ne mettez pas l’appareil dans un endroit non protégé

ou exposé aux gelées comme un garage ou une

véranda.

Ne placez pas l’appareil à la lumière directe du soleil.

Ne placez pas l’appareil à proximité de cuisinières,

cheminées ou chauffage.

Une fois bien installé l’appareil doit :

• disposer d’un espace sufsant à l’arrière et sur les

côtés pour la circulation de l’air (se reporter à la

page 5).

• être aligné avec les placards environnants.

• avoir les portes qui se referment automatiquement

depuis une position partiellement ouverte.

Avertissement

• Mettez les pieds stabilisateurs en place (voir le

schéma page 5) pour éviter que l’appareil ne tombe

en avant lorsque la porte très chargée est ouverte.

5 Installation de votre nouvel appareil

Espace autour de votre appareil

Si vous ne disposez pas d’un placard avec un espace à

l’arrière, l’espace recommandé en haut augmente de 50

mm à 90 mm (x) et de 32 mm à 72 mm (y).

Lorsqu’il est placé dans un coin, un espace d’au moins

350 mm (400 mm pour les modèles de la ligne E) du côté

des charnières permettra d’ouvrir sufsamment la porte

pour retirer les bacs et les clayettes.

Remarque :

Les portes sont conçues pour être quelque peu

éloignées du meuble (pas exactement au même niveau).

Installation de votre appareil

L’appareil doit arriver avec les pieds avant réglables

roulants étendus an de surélever l’avant de l’appareil de

10 à 15 mm.

Le pied stabilisateur doit également être entièrement

remonté an de ne pas gêner le fonctionnement des pieds

roulants (voir le schéma de l’étape 3).

Attention

Les pieds roulants ont été conçus pour des mouvements

en avant ou en arrière uniquement. Ils ne pivotent pas. Le

déplacement latéral de l’appareil pourrait endommager le

sol et les pieds roulants.

1. Faites rouler l’appareil jusqu’à sa position nale.

2. Le haut de l’appareil doit être incliné vers l’arrière de

10 à 15 mm environ (voir schéma ci-dessus). Cela

permet une fermeture automatique et hermétique des

portes.

3. Si l’appareil n’est pas incliné vers l’arrière, vous pouvez

régler les deux pieds roulants avant en tournant le

grand écrou en plastique (voir schéma ci-dessous).

Cela augmentera la hauteur des pieds roulants. Un

tour d’écrou inclinera l’appareil vers l’arrière d’environ

10 mm. Si vous éprouvez des difcultés à tourner

l’écrou, vous pouvez demander à quelqu’un de

maintenir l’appareil incliné vers l’arrière an de vous

permettre un meilleur accès. Alternativement, vous

pouvez accéder aux pieds roulants latéralement, en

utilisant un tournevis plat pour vous aider à tourner

l’écrou (voir schéma ci-dessous).

4. Vériez que l’appareil soit bien aligné avec les placards

environnants. Le haut de l’appareil doit être de niveau

(voir schéma ci-dessous). Si vous devez ajuster

le niveau, utilisez les pieds roulants ajustables tel

qu’expliqué à l’étape 3.

5. Si l’appareil bascule d’avant en arrière, cela signie

que le sol n’est pas plat ; le cas échéant, placez une

cale sous l’un des pieds roulants arrière. Vous pouvez

utiliser un petit morceau de matériau solide comme un

feuillet de bois, un morceau de tapis vinylique ou de

contre-plaqué. Placez la cale de sorte à ce qu’elle se

positionne sous l’un des pieds lorsque l’appareil est

remis en place.

6. Sur certains sols, il se peut que l’appareil avance

pendant le fonctionnement. Le cas échéant, un

dispositif de blocage de pied roulant peut être placé

sous les pieds avant.

7. Vous devrez peut être parfaire l’installation en

reprenant les étapes 3, 4 et 5.

8. Une fois l’appareil dans sa position nale, abaissez

le pied stabilisateur jusqu’à ce qu’il touche le sol.

Lorsque vous devez déplacer l’appareil, assurez-vous

de remonter le pied an qu’il puisse rouler librement.

9. Nettoyez minutieusement votre appareil en suivant

les instructions de la page 10 et essuyez la poussière

accumulée pendant le transport.

10. Branchez l’appareil. N’utilisez pas de prise multiple.

11. Nous vous recommandons de laisser fonctionner

l’appareil pendant deux à trois heures avant de placer

la nourriture. Cela vous permettra de vérier qu’il

fonctionne correctement.

Félicitations ! Vous avez réussi l’installation de votre

nouvel appareil.

6 Première mise en marche/commandes à af chage électronique – modèles électroniques

L’appareil évacue la chaleur des aliments qu’il contient

vers l’extérieur. En raison de ce processus, lors de la

première mise en marche, l’arrière, les côtés et la zone

près de la porte dégagent de la chaleur. Cela est normal.

Un serpentin de refroidissement se trouve derrière la paroi

arrière de la carrosserie. Le serpentin sert à refroidir et à

retirer l’humidité de l’air. Un ventilateur fait alors circuler

de l’air froid et sec dans le réfrigérateur. La circulation

de l’air signi e que les aliments sont réfrigérés bien plus

rapidement que dans les appareils où l’air ne circule pas.

Evitez de placer des aliments contre les sorties d’air car

cela entraverait la circulation de l’air (voir les schémas

sur la couverture interne). Un léger givre apparaîtra

occasionnellement à l’intérieur du réfrigérateur lorsque la

porte est fréquemment ouverte. Ce phénomène est normal

et disparaîtra en quelques jours dans la plupart des climats.

Assurez-vous de bien refermer la porte du congélateur

après avoir ajouté ou retiré des aliments. Si la porte est

partiellement ouverte, un givre épais recouvrira l’intérieur

du congélateur. Faites attention à bien refermer la porte et

vous éviterez toute nouvelle formation de givre.

Votre appareil utilise un compresseur haute pression et

d’autres composants à faible consommation d’énergie

susceptibles de produire un bruit différent de celui de votre

ancien appareil.

Ces sons sont normaux et incluent :

• Le bruit de fonctionnement du compresseur.

• Le bruit du mouvement de l’air produit par le moteur du

petit ventilateur.

• Des gargouillements occasionnels, évoquant de l’eau qui

bout.

• Des bruits secs, émis lors du dégivrage automatique.

• Un cliquetis, émis juste avant la mise en marche du

compresseur.

Vous trouverez de plus amples détails en page 11.

Conseils et informations

• En ce qui concerne un réfrigérateur avec congélateur

dans la partie supérieure (lorsque le congélateur est

au-dessus du compartiment pour produits frais) :

Ne placez pas d’aliments dépassant des nervures

en bas du congélateur, cela empêcherait de fermer

la porte. Assurez-vous que les aliments sont stockés

derrière les nervures.

• En ce qui concerne un réfrigérateur avec congélateur

dans la partie inférieure :

Veillez à ce que les paniers et les clayettes du

congélateur soient poussés à fond a n qu’ils

n’empêchent pas la fermeture de la porte.

Le panneau d’af chage

électronique se compose

d’un af chage LCD

avec un rétroéclairage

bleu et de sept boutons

poussoirs. Lors de

la première mise en

marche, les réglages par défaut s’af cheront, avec le

rétroéclairage bleu allumé. Si aucun bouton n’a été activé et

si la porte est fermée, le rétroéclairage s’éteindra au bout de

30 secondes.

Contrôle de la température

La température par défaut du réfrigérateur est de 3 °C et

de –18 °C pour le congélateur. Si vous souhaitez modi er

les températures, suivez les instructions ci-dessous. Vous

ne devriez réaliser que de petits ajustements et attendre 24

heures pour voir si d’autres modi cations sont nécessaires.

Remarque :

Lorsque vous réglez une température, il s’agit d’une

température moyenne pour tout l’appareil. Les températures

des différents compartiments peuvent varier, en fonction de

la quantité de nourriture stockée et de la manière dont elle

est rangée. Une température ambiante faible ou élevée peut

également affecter la température à l’intérieur de l’appareil.

Changement de la température du congélateur

Appuyez sur le bouton du congélateur a n de réduire la

température par pas

de 1 °C. Une fois la

température de – 23

°C atteinte, l’af chage

repassera à – 14 °C

lorsque la touche est

de nouveau activée.

Le graphique à barres

diminue pour les réglages de congélateur les plus froids.

Changement de la température du réfrigérateur

Appuyez sur le bouton du réfrigérateur a n de réduire la

température par pas

de 1 °C. Une fois la

température de 0 °C

atteinte, l’af chage

repassera à 7 °C lorsque

la touche est de nouveau

activée. Le graphique à

barres diminue pour les

réglages les plus froids.

Fonction de surgélation (quick freeze)

Utilisez la fonction de surgélation lorsque vous ajoutez

une grande quantité

de nourriture dans le

congélateur. Cette

fonction congèle

rapidement la nourriture

mais n’affecte pas

la température du

réfrigérateur.

Pour l’utiliser, appuyez

une fois sur la touche de surgélation. Une icône animée

s’allume. La fonction de surgélation dure 90 minutes. Si

vous souhaitez l’inactiver avant la  n des 90 minutes,

appuyez de nouveau sur la touche de surgélation. L’icône

disparaîtra et le congélateur reprendra un fonctionnement

normal.
