Frequently Asked Questions - ZECBFF/W Zanussi-Electrolux

How do I set the temperature for the fridge and freezer?

Use the separate thermostat controls. For the freezer, settings range from 1 (minimum coldness) to 7 (maximum coldness). For the fridge, settings range from 1 to 5 (maximum). An intermediate setting is usually suitable. Allow 24 hours for stabilisation after adjustment.

What does the door alarm mean?

If either door is left open, the door alarm will sound and the alarm button flashes red. Press the alarm button to silence it (light remains red). Close the door to reset completely.

How do I clean the refrigerator?

Disconnect power before cleaning. Use warm water with a little bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5L water). Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, or alcohol-based products. Clean the condenser at the rear annually with a soft brush or vacuum.

How do I change the interior light bulb?

Switch off and unplug the appliance. Open the plastic light cover by pushing upwards on the centre clip. Unscrew the old bulb and replace with a standard 25W max, E14 screw thread, 220-240V bulb.

Can I reverse the door opening direction?

Yes. Follow the step-by-step instructions in the manual: remove plinth, lower hinge, doors, centre hinge, and refit components on the opposite side. Ensure the door gasket seals correctly after reversal.

What should I do during a power failure?

Keep the doors closed. If the freezer temperature rises, do not refreeze food without checking its condition. Guidelines: discard thawed ice cream; cook soft fruits/vegetables; bread/cakes can be refrozen; shellfish should be used quickly; large meat pieces with ice crystals can be refrozen.

How do I freeze fresh food?

Press the fast freeze button 3 hours before placing fresh food in the freezer. The function automatically switches off after 36 hours. The maximum freezing capacity is 10 kg per 24 hours.

Why is the motor running continuously?

Possible causes: incorrect temperature setting, doors not closed properly, frequent door openings, recently added warm food, or dirty condenser. Check these and adjust accordingly. If the problem persists, contact service.

What are normal operating sounds?

Clicking sounds from temperature control (system switching on/off), gurgling from cooling gas in tubes, humming from the motor, and occasional fan noise. These are normal and not a fault.

How can I reduce energy consumption?

Install away from heat sources, ensure good ventilation, avoid frequent door openings, let warm food cool before storing, pack foods airtight, and clean the condenser annually. A frost-free system automatically manages defrosting efficiently.

Your freezer provides for long-term storage which generally means up to 3 months but the length of the time can vary and it is important to follow the recommended times shown on packets of commercially frozen food.

Refrigerator Compartment

This compartment is designed to store drinks and fresh food. The inner temperature is normally uniform and is kept cool by cold circulating air. Try to avoid putting food products flush against the air vents at the back of the fridge as this could cause the foods to freeze.

Food Storage Energy Saving Advice

• Do not install the cabinet close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or radiator.
• Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the air openings of the cabinet are not obstructed.
• Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages before placing them in the freezer.
• Always leave warm food to cool down to room temperature before placing in the fridge or freezer.
• Food that is to be frozen (when cool) should be placed in the fridge before being transferred to the freezer.
• Do not put any hot food into the fridge or freezer.
• Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of the refrigeration unit.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods, or opening the door too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing properly.
• To obtain the best results from your appliance, neither hot foods nor liquids, which may evaporate should be placed in the larder compartment.
• Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it straight away. The use of an insulated container is advisable. When you arrive home place the frozen food in the freezer immediately.
• Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your fridge as short as possible.
• Do not push food together too much; try to allow air to circulate around each item.
• Do not store food uncovered.

• Wrap the food up properly or place it in airtight containers before putting it into the fridge freezer.

• Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and labeled and used in date order to ensure that food is consumed at its best.

• Remove suspect food from your fridge freezer and clean, refer to 'Maintenance and Cleaning'.
• Do not put any newly introduced food for freezing near to already frozen food
• Food and drinks, which have a strong odor, may affect other foods and drinks if not stored correctly.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the temperature within your freezer should rise do not refreeze the food without checking its condition. The following guidelines should assist you.

Ice Cream: Once thawed should be discarded.

Fruit and Vegetables: If soft should be cooked and used up.

Bread and Cakes: Can be refrozen without danger.

Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and used up quickly.

Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should be refrigerated and used up.

Large Pieces of Meat: Can be re-frozen providing there are ice crystals remaining within them.
