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.
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.
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.
SWITCHING ON
Before switching on, the freezer should be cleaned inside. See under “Maintenance”. Set the thermostat button in mid-
dle position. Allow the freezer to run for several hours before placing food inside.
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 vio-
lently.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The thermostat ensures that the required temperature is maintained in the freezer. Turning the thermo-
stat button towards no. “7” makes the temperature in the freezer colder, and turning the button towards
no. “min” makes the temperature warmer. The correct setting can be found by measuring the temper-
ature 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.
LOCK
The lock works as shown in the drawings. Remember to
keep the key out of the reach of children.
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.
LOW FROST SYSTEM.
The patented LOW FROST System reduces the ice-build-up in the chest freezer by up to 80 percent, which results in up to five times lon-
ger periods between the requirement to defrost. To get the full benefit of the system, please observe the following points: The amount of
ice-build-up in any freezer is very much dependent of the moisture of the surrounding air. The ice will build up quicker in a humid climate than in
a dry climate. Therefore you should avoid installing your freezer in very humid surroundings. The LOW FROST system minimizes the amount of
ice caused by the natural temperature cycle of the freezer. However, ice-build-up from other sources is not reduced. The most important other
sources are poorly wrapped food and warm air introduced when the lid is opened. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the lid isn’t opened
unnecessarily, and the lid is not obstructed by packs of food when closed. If food stored in the freezer is not wrapped properly, humidity from
the food will settle as ice on the freezer walls. Food quality will also deteriorate, so ensure that food put in the freezer is wrapped well. Maintenance
and Cleaning. The LOW FROST system does not need any maintenance or cleaning during normal use. If needed the pipe can be wiped with
a soft cloth. Do not use any sharp or piercing tools, as this may damage the system.
DEFROSTING
The formation of frost on the inside of freezers cannot be avoided. Frost is formed when mois-
ture 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 freez-
er inside, since this will damage the inside and leave a strong smell.

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 occa-
sionally, 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.
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.
PREPARATION OF ICE CUBE MAKER
1.Fill the ice cube maker until the cubes will be full in the horizontal position or by the
load line mark in the vertical position. After this close the ice cube maker with cap.
2.Place the holder in the lid of the freezer and leave to solidify
3.To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it under running
water for a few seconds.
Important! Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment
using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use a soft plastic scraper.
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
