User manual AEG-ELECTROLUX ER3117B

[. . . ] Ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a cable available from your local Service Force Centre. Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. Parts which heat up should not be exposed. [. . . ] The appliance will start operating after a 4 minute delay and the internal light will switch on. The ON/OFF button will illuminate green and the Freezer and Fridge control knob surrounds light up. The temperature alarm (a beeping sound) may come on during the start up phase. If this happens push the temperature alarm button. Set the thermostat controls for the fridge and freezer compartments. To ensure safe food storage, allow the appliance to operate with the doors closed for at least 3 hours, before loading with food. Refrigerator Compartment This compartment is designed to store drinks and fresh food. The inner temperature is normally uniform and is kept cool by cold circulating air. Try to avoid putting food products flush against the air vents at the back of the fridge as this could cause the foods to freeze. Chill Compartment Freezer Compartment The freezer will store frozen food at -18ºC or colder allowing for long-term frozen food storage and freezing of fresh food. The temperature is kept typically at 1-2 degrees lower than the average temperature in the fridge. Use the compartment for foods that are marked typically for storage at 0-5°C for longer preservation. Adjusting the fridge temperature to cooler or warmer affects the chiller temperature in the same way. Avoid stacking large amounts of warm food on top of already cold food, as this will raise the temperature of the food previously stored in the chiller. Fruit and Vegetables: If soft should be cooked and used up. Bread and Cakes: Can be refrozen without danger. Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and used up quickly. casseroles should be refrigerated and used up. Large Pieces of Meat: Can be re-frozen providing there are ice crystals remaining within them. Small Joints: Should be cooked and then re-frozen as cooked dishes. Chicken: Should be cooked and re-frozen as a fresh dish.
