POSITION

Place the freezer horizontally on a firm surface, resting on all four plastic feet. Use a wooden block or similar object to compensate for any bumps/holes in the surface. The room should be dry and adequately ventilated. Temperatures of the external environment have an impact on the energy consumption of the device. Therefore:

• do not put the device to a place exposed to sunshine ore besides a radiator or oven,
• put it to a place where the temperature of the environment corresponds to the climatic classification for which the device was designed.

Climatic classification Ambient temperature limits

SN from +10°C to +32°C

N from +16°C to +32°C

ST from +18°C to +38°C

T from +18°C to +43°C

If the freezer has been handled standing on end it should be allowed to stand in normal position for about 12 hours before switching it on. Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

SWITCHING ON

Before switching on, the freezer should be cleaned inside. See under "Maintenance". Set the thermostat button in middle position. Allow the freezer to run for several hours before placing food inside.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Before switching on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate, located inside the lid.

Warning: This appliance must be earthed.

CE this appliance complies with the following EC Directives:

• 73/23/EEC of 19.02. 1973 - Low-Voltage Directive
• 89/336/EEC of 03. 05. 1989 (including Amendment Directive 92/31/EEC - EMC Directive.

Some of the models are not available in all countries.

Testing has been carried out in accordance with ISO 5155 regarding the determination of freezer capacity, energy consumption and hold-overtime.

Information for test institute: A plan of the positioning of test packages may be obtained directly from the manufacturer.

OPENING/CLOSING THE LID

The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing strip to prevent moisture getting inside the freezer and increasing the amount of frost formed. When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer becomes slightly warmer and expands. As soon as the lid is closed again the air is cooled immediately. This may lead to the creation of a vacuum which makes it hard to open the lid immediately after it has been closed. This is quite normal. Wait a few minutes until the vacuum has disappeared, then open the lid by pulling gently. Never pull the handle violently.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The thermostat ensures that the required temperature is maintained in the freezer. Turning the thermostat button towards no. 7 makes the temperature in the freezer colder, and turning the button towards no. 1 makes the temperature warmer. The correct setting can be found by measuring the temperature of the top package in the middle of the freezer. This should not have a temperature higher than -18°C.

CONTROL PANEL

The green light is illuminated as long as the freezer is connected. The yellow light is illuminated when the "Super" button is depressed. See under "Freezing". The red light is illuminated when the temperature in the freezer is higher than the thermostat setting (alarm).

The red alarm light can be due to: Insertion of a large amount of fresh food. The red alarm light will go out after a while. Opening the lid too long. The red alarm light will go out after a while. A defect in the system. See under "If something does not work".

CAPACITY

The freezing capacity of the freezer is stated in the data plate (kg/24 hours). Do not exceed the amount stated - if you do, the freezing time will be extended. The data plate is located inside the lid.

IMPORTANT The freezing capacity stated can be utilised to the full occasionally to freeze large amounts of fresh food. However, if the freezer is filled with large amounts of food for freezing every day, the capacity stated is reduced by about one-third.

BASKET

The baskets are designed for the storage of food which has already been frozen. The handles can be placed in two positions, as shown in the drawings. The baskets can either be placed inside the freezer or hung on the edge of the casing.

DEFROSTING

The formation of frost on the inside of freezers cannot be avoided. Frost is formed when moisture contained in the air comes into contact with the cold surfaces of the freezer. Consequently, the lid should only be opened when necessary, and it should never be left open. A thin layer of ice or frost does not affect the function of the freezer adversely, and can be removed carefully using the scraper provided.

IMPORTANT Never use a knife or any other sharp implement to remove frost.

When the frost or ice layer is 10-15 mm thick, the freezer should be defrosted. We suggest that you defrost your freezer when there is little or no food inside. Switch off the current. Remove the contents of the freezer, wrap them in newspapers, and leave them in a cold place. The speed of defrosting can be increased by placing one or more bowls of hot (not boiling) water inside the freezer and closing the lid. Open the lid after a while, and remove the layer of ice

carefully. The defrost water can be collected in a bowl as shown in the drawing. Do not try to speed up defrosting by using anything other than hot water, since this may damage the freezer. After defrosting, clean the inside of the freezer.

IMPORTANT Remember to replace the plug in the drip water drain.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR FREEZER INSIDE

Remove the plug from the mains socket, and remove all loose accessories before cleaning the freezer. The best time to clean your freezer is after defrosting and before the electricity supply is connected again. Use a damp cloth to clean your freezer. Use hot water, and a mild, non-aromatic cleaning agent. After cleaning the freezer, clean the basket/baskets before replacing them.

IMPORTANT Never use strong cleaning agents, scouring powder or strongly aromatic cleaning agents to clean your freezer inside, since this will damage the inside and leave a strong smell.

WHEN NOT IN USE

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Remove all goods from the freezer. Clean the freezer as described above. Leave the lid slightly open.

HOW TO CHANGE THE BULB

Before changing the bulb, isolate the appliance from the electricity supply. Exert pressure to remove the light glass as shown in the drawing. Unscrew the bulb, and replace it with a new bulb (max. 15W). Then re-connect the electricity supply. Extra bulbs are available from your local Electrolux Service Centre.

IF YOUR FREEZER DOES NOT FUNCTION SATISFACTORILY

Check the following before calling for service staff:

Defect:	Check if:	Possible cause:	Action:
Freezer not cold enough	Green light not on	Plug not connected correctly	Check plug and socket
		Defect in switch or fuse	Check fuse, call electrician
		Power failure	Wait until current returns
	Green and red light on	Fresh food recently placed in freezer	Wait a couple of hours
		Lid open too long	Wait a couple of hours
	Green light on, red light not on	Thermostat set too warm	Set thermostat colder
		Lot of frost and ice formed	Defrost freezer
Freezer too cold	Yellow light on	“Super” function active	Press “Super” button out
	Yellow light not on	Thermostat set too cold	Set thermostat warmer
Too much frost formed	Lid does not close completely	Lid in contact with goods in freezer	Re-arrange goods, check that lid closes correctly
	Lot of moisture in the room	Moisture from washing machine, tumble-dryer, etc.	Move freezer to a room with less moisture, or air regularly
	Goods packed poorly	Lot of moisture from goods	Re-pack goods, see under “How to use”

If you are still unable to solve the problem, summon the assistance of authorised service staff. Do not take any other steps. Incorrect procedure may cause personal injury or lead to additional defects. It is quite normal for the freezer to seem warm on the outside occasionally, owing to the heat generated by the freezing process. This heat also helps to prevent the formation of moisture on the outside of the appliance which could cause rust. If the freezer has been switched off briefly, the compressor may not start immediately when the current is re-connected. This is quite normal.

ACCESSORIES

Spare baskets can be obtained from your local Service Centre. The illustrations on this page show how many baskets can be placed in the various freezer models. Measure the length of your freezer and find the appropriate illustration. The number above each illustration indicates its length in millimetres.
