abrasive powders, as these
will damage the finish.
5. HINTS AND TIPS
5.1 Normal operating sounds
The following sounds are normal during
operation:
• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound
from coils sound when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A whirring and pulsating sound from
the compressor when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A sudden cracking noise from inside
appliance caused by thermic dilatation
(a natural and not dangerous physical
phenomenon).
• A faint click noise from the
temperature regulator when the
compressor switches on or off.
5.2 Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
• Place the shelf above the water
module as described in the "Daily
use" chapter.
5.3 Hints for fresh food
refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly
if it has a strong flavour
www.electrolux.com10
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
5.4 Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
• Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene
bags and place on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer.
• For safety, store in this way only one
or two days at the most.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc. :
these should be covered and may be
placed on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the
special drawer(s) provided.
• Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much
air as possible.
• Bottles: these need a cap and should
be stored on the door bottle shelf, or
(if equipped) on the bottle rack.
• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic,
if not packed, must not be kept in the
refrigerator.
5.5 Hints for temperature inside
the refrigerator
A suitable temperature inside the
refrigerator is approximately+4° C. If the
temperature regulator is set to a cold
temperature, the ambient temperature is
high or if the appliance is fully loaded the
compressor will run for a longer time. If
too cold, change to a higher temperature
setting.
If you want to check the temperature of
food stored in the refrigerator, place a
glass of water centrally in the cabinet,
and put a proper thermometer with an
accuracy of +/– 1 °C into it. After 6 hours
the temperature can be monitored. The
measuring shall be performed under
steady-stated conditions (without
changing the load).

be guaranteed within the
specified temperature range.
If you have any doubts
regarding where to install the
appliance, please turn to the
vendor, to our customer
service or to the nearest
Authorised Service Centre.
8.2 Electrical connection
• Before plugging in, ensure that the
voltage and frequency shown on the
rating plate correspond to your
domestic power supply.
• The appliance must be earthed. The
power supply cable plug is provided
with a contact for this purpose. If the
domestic power supply socket is not
earthed, connect the appliance to a
separate earth in compliance with
current regulations, consulting a
qualified electrician.
• The manufacturer declines all
responsibility if the above safety
precautions are not observed.
• This appliance complies with the
E.E.C. Directives.
8.3 Location
To ensure best performance, if the
appliance is positioned below an
overhanging wall unit, the minimum
distance between the top of the cabinet
and the wall unit must be at least 40 mm.
Ideally, however, the appliance should
not be positioned below overhanging wall
units.
The ventilation space can be:
• directly above the appliance
• behind and above the top cupboard.
In this case, the space behind the top
cupboard must be at least 50 mm
deep.

CAUTION!
Some models are fitted with
a silencing pad under the
cabinet. Do not remove this
pad.
8.5 Rear spacers
Install the two spacers and the locking
pins provided within the accessory bag
as shown in the figure.
8.6 Connecting the water hose.
Water supply should be provided with a
tap and 3/4" male connector within 1,5 m
from the appliance.
This work is to be carried out by a skilled
plumber.
There are different type-approved taps
and tap assemblies on the market.
The water hose must not be cracked,
squeezed or put in tight bends.
The safety valve provided in a package
inside the appliance should be used to
prevent overflow. Before the safety valve
is placed on the tap, turn the pointer
clockwise to number 10 with the
enclosed plastic key. Install the safety
valve on the tap and let at least 10 litres
of water flow through the device. Before
connecting the appliance turn the pointer
to number 1 on the safety valve. If the
safety valve has shut off, detach it and
press the red plunger which is located
inside the lower housing of the device
itself.
Before the appliance is placed its final
location, ensure that the water
connection has been correctly carried
out, that there is no leakage at the
connection to the water tap.
Tighten the screw enough by hand.
Make sure that the gasket is properly
positioned in the connector.
We recommend that the appliance is
placed on a "run-off" mat intended for
refrigerators and freezers, which makes it
easier to detect possible leakage
