IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTION BOOK BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION
It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the
appliance be sold or transferred to another owner or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure
that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the
appliance and the relevant warnings.
These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.
This product is designed to be operated by adults.
Children should not be allowed to tamper with the
controls or play with the product.
Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
This product should be serviced by an authorised
Electrolux Service Engineer, and only genuine
Electrolux spare parts should be used.
Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance
does not stand on the electrical supply cable.
Electrolux refrigerators are designed to be used
specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.
There are working parts in this product which heat
up. Always ensure that there is adequate ventilation
as a failure to do this will result in component failure
and possible food loss. See installation instructions.
Parts which heat up should not be exposed.
Wherever possible the back of the product should
be close to a wall but leaving the required distance
for ventilation as stated in the installation
instructions.
Before defrosting, cleaning or maintenance work is
carried out, be sure to switch off the appliance and
unplug it.
The ice box in this appliance contains tubes through
which the refrigerant passes. If these are punctured
this would cause substantial damage and result in
food loss. DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to
scrape off frost or ice. Under no circumstances
should solid ice be forced off the ice box. Solid ice
should be allowed to thaw when defrosting the
appliance. See defrost instructions.
The appliance should be left for 2 hours after
installation before it is turned on in order to allow
refrigerant to settle, unless it is of the absorption
type in which case it can be turned on immediately.
This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when
moving it.
Ice lollies can cause frost burns if consumed
straight from the freezer.
Frozen food must not be refrozen once it has
thawed out.
Manufacturer's food storage recommendations
should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant
instructions.
Do not place carbonated of fizzy drinks in the
freezer as is creates pressure on the container
which may cause it to explode resulting in damage
to the appliance.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to
repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or more
serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local
Electrolux Service Centre and always insist on
genuine Electrolux spare parts.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
It's important that you read this handbook before
installing and using your new refrigerator.
SAFETY NOTE: If this refrigerator is replacing a larger
one which is going to be scrapped, remove the door
before disposal to prevent children from becoming
trapped inside.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The refrigerator is equipped with an electrically heated
absorption cooling unit which is virtually silent in
operation. The fridge is designed for free-standing
installation, but can be built-in if the following conditions
are complied with to ensure satisfactory operation and
maximum cooling efficiency.
1) The fridge must be level in both directions.
2) There must be an air duct at the back of the housing
to provide sufficient air-flow over the cooling unit to
carry away heat generated during the cooling
process. The entire cooling unit should project into
the duct and the air passing through the dust must
not be pre-heated by radiators. T.V. sets or any
other sources of heat.
Two refrigerators should not be built-in, one on top
of the other, unless separate air ducts are provided
for each.
3) When built-in, for future servicing requirements, it
must be possible for the refrigerator to be easily
removed, without damaging the fitment in which it is
housed.
The illustrations on page 47 show 3 different ways of
building-in the refrigerator.
With the refrigerator standing on a shelf - Figure 1
The opening at the back for the passage of air must be
at least 105 mm deep. This can be achieved by using
105 mm opening immediately under the cooling unit.
Alternatively, the shelf can be supported on battens at
the sides, screwed to adjacent fitments, or on legs,
leaving a completely unobstructed opening underneath
the cooling unit for the full width of the refrigerator,
allowing maximum air-flow.
If a ventilation grill is fitted at the top, it must have a free
space of at least 200 cm2 for the ventilating air to
escape.
With the refrigerator built into a housing - Figures 2
and 3.
The ventilation duct at the back of the recess must be at
least 105 mm deep and extend the full width of the
refrigerator - 425 mm minimum.
If the inlet and/or outlet openings at the bottom and top
of the duct are fitted with decorative grilles, the free
space through each grille must not be less than 200
cm2 so that the air-flow is not restricted.
