CARE AND MAINTENANCE 

Defrosting

Frost will gradually form on the cooling

surfaces and it must not be allowed to

become too thick since it impairs the

cooling efficiency of the refrigerator.
The appliance defrosts automatically on a

regular basis and then switches itself on

again. The defrosting process is car-ried

out by a timer switch operating on a 24-

hour cycle.

Defrost water

During the defrosting process the water

runs through a hose into a container on
the back of the refrigerator where it

evaporates. This container does not need

to be emptied.

Cleaning 

Clean the inside of your refrigerator

regularly to keep it fresh and hygienic.

Switch off the appliance and pull out the

plug. Clean the interior and fittings care-

fully with a mild detergent in lukewarm

water.
Never use acidic, abrasive or strong-

smelling detergents or wax polishes as

these will damage the surfaces and leave

an unpleasant smell.
The wooden housing should be dusted

from time-to-time or wiped down with a

damp cloth. The door seal should only be

cleaned with water and rubbed down with

talcum powder from time to time.
If possible, the unit should also be dusted

occasionally with a brush or, even better,

with a vacuum cleaner. Ensure that the

plug is disconnected.

Longer periods of absence . . .

If you wish to switch off the appliance for

a longer period of time, pull out the plug,

defrost the refrigerator and clean it

carefully. Leave the door open to pre-vent

unpleasant odours from forming.

Changing the lightbulb

If the lightbulb needs changing, pull out

the plug and proceed as follows:
Push the sheet reflector up and pull the

lamp cover away backwards. Replace the

bulb and push the covering back into

place.
A new 10-watt bulb can be obtained at

any Electrolux service shop.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING 

Before you call a service engineer, carry

out the following simple tests:
Is there a power failure? Check the fuses.
Is the plug firmly connected to the socket

and is the socket switched on? Check the

socket by plugging in another appli-ance,

eg a table lamp.
Is the thermostat at the correct setting?

(normally 3 or 4).
Has the door not been closed properly

causing the inside temperature to rise too

quickly?
Is the refrigerator level?
Has the ventilation become obstructed? If

after checking all the above points, the

refrigerator is still not working satis-

factorily, contact your nearest service

engineer.
This refrigerator is equipped with

overheating protection. An authorised

service technician can check whether this

has been triggered or not.
A list of service engineers is supplied with

every appliance. State the problem,

model and product number. (Details of the

model and product num-ber are to be

found on the data label in the top left of

the inside compartment.)
