of those materials through your local recycling depot or by
placing them in appropriate collection containers.
Important – check for any damages or marks. If you find the
refrigerator is damaged or marked, you must report it within 7
days should you wish to claim for damage/ marks under the
manufacturers warranty. This does not affect your statutory
rights.
Clean your refrigerator thoroughly following the instructions
in the “Cleaning” section and wipe off any dust that has
accumulated during shipping.
Locating the refrigerator
CAUTION
Automatic aerosol systems (such as insect control) should
not be located adjacent to the product as the spray may
cause long term damage to the external plastics of the
appliance.
Do not put the refrigerator in a location that is too
cold or is unprotected, for example in a garage or on a
veranda. The ambient temperature should be above 10°C.
Put the refrigerator in a dry place avoiding areas of high
moisture or humidity.
Ensure the refrigerator is located on an even surface.
Adequate ventilation around your refrigerator
The diagram below shows the recommended airspace to
allow for ventilation of your refrigerator.
If you have a cupboard above the refrigerator with a rear
gap of less than 100 mm (Y), recommended clearance at the
top of the refrigerator increases from 50mm to 90mm (X)
minimum.
When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at least
350mm (300mm for multi-door models) on the hinge side will
allow the doors to open enough to enable the removal of
bins and shelves.
NOTE: Doors are designed to sit proud of cabinetry
(not flush). The clearances shown above are the
recommended minimum clearances.
The clearance at the rear must not exceed 75mm.
Installing your refrigerator
1. Roll the refrigerator into place. The rollers are designed
for forward or backward movement only. They are not
astors. Moving the refrigerator sideways may damage
your floor and the rollers. Before moving your
refrigerator ensure height adjusting nut and the stability
foot are fully wound up off the floor.
2. Wind the large height adjusting nut under door hinge
down until the refrigerator is tilted back by 10mm
(see diagram).
3. Wind the large height adjusting nut on the handle side
down until the refrigerator is level and stable. If you
have difficulty winding the nut or height adjusting foot
down, have someone tilt the refrigerator back so you
have better access.
4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the
surrounding cupboards to see if it is level. You can
adjust the level as detailed in step 2 and 3.

INSTALLING YOUR NEW REFRIGERATOR
5. If you find your refrigerator rocks from corner to
corner, it means your floor is uneven. Find a piece of
plastic or hardboard etc. and pack it firmly under the
roller.
6. You may now need to fine-tune the installation by
repeating steps 3, 4 and 5.
7. When you have the appliance in its final position, it
needs to be stabilised. Wind the stability foot under the
door hinge down to the floor until it just makes contact
with the floor. Lift the front of the appliance to take the
weZight off the stability foot, then turn it half a turn
further to ensure firm contact with the floor. Wind the
large height adjusting nut back up to ensure all the
weight is now on the front stability foot.
8. Repeat step 7 for the stability foot on the handle side.
Whenever you need to move the appliance, be sure to
wind the feet back up so that the appliance can roll
freely and be sure to reset it when reinstalling.
9. Plug your refrigerator straight into its own power point
and never use a double adapter. If you need to roll the
refrigerator to get to the plug, remember to raise the
stability foot first.
10. Before you put any food in your refrigerator, its
recommended you leave it on for 2 or 3 hours to check
it is running properly.
Fitting the handles
The handles are supplied prepackaged inside your
refrigerator and will require fitting.
Refer to the instructions provided in the pack.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed your new
refrigerator.
USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Refrigerators work by transferring heat from the food inside
to the outside air. This operation makes the back and sides
of the refrigerator feel warm or even hot particularly at
start-up and on warm days – this is normal.
Avoid placing food against the air vents in the refrigerator
as it affects efficient circulation. If the door is opened
frequently, a light frosting will occasionally occur on the
freezer’s interior. This is normal and will clear after a few
days. If the freezer door is accidentally kept open, a heavy
frost will coat the inside walls and should be removed.
Your new refrigerator uses a high-speed compressor, along
with other energy-efficient components, which may make
unusual sounds and be more noticeable at night and
quieter times. These sounds simply indicate your refrigerator
is working how it should. They include:
Compressor running noises;
Air movement noise from the small fan motor;
A gurgling sound, similar to water boiling;
A popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting;
and
A clicking noise, prior to compressor start-up. Further
details can be found in the Troubleshooting Guide.
IMPORTANT
For top mount refrigerators (where the freezer is on top of
the fresh food compartment).
Don’t place food forward of the ribs on the freezer
floor, as it will keep the door open.

Nothing. This is normal as your new refrigerator uses a high-speed compressor
which switches on and off during operation.
Note that the compressor noise may seem louder at the start of the on cycle.
A clicking noise heard just before
the compressor starts.
Nothing. This is normal as your new refrigerator has an automatic switching action
of the temperature control, turning the compressor on and off.
Occasional gurgling, similar
to water boiling.
Nothing. As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the
refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator system.
Airflow noise. Nothing, this is normal as your new refrigerator uses high efficiency fans to circulate air.
Rattling and
other noises.
Ensure that the cabinet is level and stable, refer to
Installation Instructions on page 6.
Check the surrounds of the appliance to ensure there is nothing
touching or placed on top of the appliance.
Ensure that contents of the appliance are not placed in such a way
that they are vibrating (such as bottles).
Crisper Operation
CONCERN WHAT TO DO
Excess moisture build up in crisper
It is normal for there to be some moisture
and humidity in the crisper bin.
Ensure that the crisper is not over packed.
Crisper bin can not be removed If crisper bin interferes with the door bins, remove door bins before removing
crisper.
Position cabinet so that the door can be fully opened.
Freezing items in the crisper Adjust temperature to a warmer setting.
Refrigerator operation
CONCERN WHAT TO DO
Appliance will not run
It is normal for the freezer fan not to
operate during the automatic defrost cycle,
or for a short time after the appliance is
switched on.
Ensure that the cord is plugged into a live power outlet and outlet is switched on.
Ensure that the household circuit breaker has not tripped or that the fuse has not
blown.
The appliance maybe in defrost mode, check again in half an hour.
Compressor motor seems to run too long
At normal room temperatures, expect your
motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time.
Under warmer conditions, expect it to run
even more often.
Ensure that the doors are not held open
Check that large amounts of warm food have not just been placed inside the
appliance.
Note that the appliance will run more than normal just after you install it or when
adjusting to temperature setting changes.
The exterior of the appliance is warm or hot
to touch
This is normal because the appliance
transfers heat from the inside out through
the outer panels and the divider between
the doors.
Ensure the appliance has the external clearances recommended in the section
“Installing your new appliance”.
The exterior of the cabinet will be much warmer on warmer days it may even feel
hot to touch, as the appliance is working harder.
User interface will not respond
To ensure settings are not accidentally
changed the user interface will go into
sleep mode when not in use. Press any
button to wake user interface
Check that the user interface is in awake mode, refer to section About the user
interface”.
Check that the user interface is not locked, refer to section “About the user
interface”.
If the user interface is frozen turn the appliance off for five minutes for the memory to
clear, then turn back on.
Check that the user interface is not in Sabbath Mode, refer to control instructions.
(I&W models only).
Alarms Sounding
Check that all doors are fully closed.
Ensure that the over temperature alarm is not being activated by hot food placed in
the freezer.
Check if the drinks timer has ended, refer control instructions.
Check if the Filter Replacement alert is activated, refer control instructions.
(I&W models only)
Frost build up Check that all doors are fully closed.
Ensure that the doors are not opened too often.
Ensure that the return air vents are not blocked with packaging.
Ensure the seals are clean and not obstructed.
Odours The interior may need cleaning, refer to cleaning guide.
Ensure that food is stored correctly as some food, containers and wrapping can
produce odours.
Check appliance for old or unusual food.
Lights not working
The LED lighting is designed to dim
automatically if the door is left opened
for more than 5 minutes and turn off
completely if the door is open for more
than 7 minutes. Closing the door will reset
the timer.
The LED lighting is also designed to turn
on gradually.
Ensure that the cord is plugged into a live power outlet and outlet is switched on.
Ensure that the household circuit breaker has not tripped or that the fuse has not
blown.
Check that the user interface is not in Sabbath Mode, refer to control instructions.
Check the appliance features section to determine lighting configuration for your
model. Check that the doors are closed completely

TROUBLESHOOTING
Door operation
CONCERN WHAT TO DO
Freezer door pops open.
This is normal and should re-close. This happens when the refrigerator door is
closed too quickly.
If the freezer door stays open, it indicates that the appliance needs to be tilted
backwards a little further. Refer to section “Installing your new appliance”.
Self close not working. Check if your appliance has self closing hinges as not all models do.
It indicates that the appliance needs to be tilted backwards a little further. Refer
to section “Installing your new appliance”.
Door not sealing properly Ensure there is nothing that is preventing the door from closing such as appliance
contents or items placed near the appliance.
Ensure that the crisper/freezer bin is closed completely. Refit if required as
referred to in the section “Using your refrigerator”.
Ensure the appliance is set up as per recommendations.
Door difficult to open and close If the door is difficult to open just after you have closed it this is due to the
pressure equalising, the door will open normally after a few minutes.
If you still require service
If you have a problem, and the problem persists after you have made the checks mentioned, contact your nearest
Electrolux approved Service Centre or the dealer you bought the refrigerator from. Be ready to quote the model
number, the 9-digit PNC and 8-digit serial number, which is stated on the label inside the refrigerator
compartment.
