Electrolux EUC2244AOW, User Manual

Do not use metallic

instruments to remove the

trays from the freezer.

1. Fill these trays with water

2. Put the ice trays in the freezer

compartment.

5.5 Cold accumulators

The freezer contains at least one cold

accumulator which increases storage

time in the event of a power cut or

breakdown.

6. HINTS AND TIPS

6.1 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.

6.2 Hints for energy saving

• Eco mode / default setting preserves

frozen foods while saving energy.

• Frozen Compartment (Freezer): The

internal configuration of the appliance

is the one that ensures the most

efficient use of energy.

• Do not remove the cold accumulators

from the freezer basket.

• Do not open the door frequently or

leave it open longer than absolutely

necessary.

6.3 Hints for freezing

• Freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned food products.

• For more efficient freezing and

thawing divide food into small

portions.

• Wrap the food in aluminium foil or

polythene. Make sure that the

packages are airtight.

• To avoid increase in temperature of

already frozen food, do not place

fresh unfrozen food directly next to it.

• Lean foods store better and longer

than fatty ones. Salt reduces the

storage life of food.

• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice

lollies immediately after taking them

out of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.

• It is advisable to show the freezing

date on each individual pack to

enable you to keep tab of the storage

time.

6.4 Hints for storage of frozen

food

• Make sure that the commercially

frozen food products were adequately

stored by the retailer.

• Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are

transferred from the food store to the

freezer in the shortest possible time.

• Once defrosted, food deteriorates

rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

• Do not exceed the storage period

indicated by the food manufacturer.
