WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

6.1 General warnings

CAUTION!

Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour

• 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.

The accessories and parts of the appliance are not suitable for washing in a dishwasher.

6.2 Periodic cleaning

CAUTION!

Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.

CAUTION!

Take care of not to damage the cooling system.

10 www.aeg.com

CAUTION!

When moving the cabinet, lift it by the front edge to avoid scratching the floor.

This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.

6.3 Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use.

The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of
