2. Safety Information
Before installing and using the appliance, carefully read the supplied instructions. The manufacturer is not responsible for any injuries or damages resulting from incorrect installation or usage. Always keep the instructions in a safe and accessible location for future reference.
General Safety Warnings:
- This appliance is intended for domestic use only.
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance.
- Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
- Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
- Always unplug the appliance before cleaning or maintenance.

3. Setup and Installation
Placement:
Your AEG fridge freezer is a freestanding unit. Ensure it is placed on a stable, level surface. Allow sufficient space around the appliance for proper ventilation, especially at the back and sides, to ensure efficient operation and prevent overheating.

Initial Cleaning:
Before first use, clean the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then dry thoroughly.
Electrical Connection:
Ensure the voltage and frequency indicated on the rating plate match your household power supply. The appliance must be properly earthed.
Door Reversal:
The door orientation is reversible. If you need to change the door swing, it is recommended to contact a qualified service technician to perform this task to avoid damage to the appliance or injury.
Initial Operation:
After installation, wait at least 4 hours before connecting the appliance to the power supply. This allows the refrigerant gases to settle. Once plugged in, set the temperature and allow the appliance to cool for several hours (typically 4-6 hours) before loading it with food.
4. Operating Instructions
Temperature Control:
The appliance features an intuitive digital display for precise temperature control. You can adjust the temperature for both the fridge and freezer compartments independently to suit your needs.

TwinTech No Frost Technology:
This advanced system uses two independent cooling systems for the fridge and freezer, preventing frost build-up in the freezer and maintaining optimal humidity in the fridge. This keeps food up to 60% juicier and more hydrated compared to single-evaporator systems, eliminating the need for manual defrosting.

MultiFlow System:
MultiFlow technology ensures stable temperatures and humidity throughout the entire refrigerator compartment. Multiple air channels actively circulate cold air, reaching every corner and protecting the quality of your food.

Extra Chill Drawer:
The Extra Chill drawer is specifically designed to maintain a lower temperature than the rest of the fridge, making it ideal for storing delicate items such as cheeses, cold cuts, and fresh produce, slowing down their maturation process.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning
Cleaning the Interior:
Regularly clean the interior of the appliance with a soft cloth, lukewarm water, and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
No Defrosting Required:
Thanks to the TwinTech No Frost technology, manual defrosting of the freezer compartment is not necessary. Any ice formation in the freezer is automatically managed by the system.
Cleaning the Exterior:
Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stainless steel finishes, use a specialized stainless steel cleaner to maintain its appearance and prevent fingerprints.
6. Troubleshooting
Before contacting service, check the following common issues:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Appliance does not operate. | No power supply; plug not inserted correctly. | Check power plug and fuse. |
| Temperature is not cold enough. | Door not closed properly; large amount of food added; door opened too frequently; temperature setting too high. | Check door seal; reduce frequency of door opening; adjust temperature setting lower. |
| Excessive noise. | Appliance not level; parts vibrating; normal operating sounds. | Adjust leveling feet; ensure no items are touching the back or sides; gurgling/humming sounds are normal. |
| Water on the bottom of the refrigerator. | Drain hole is blocked. | Clean the drain hole with a small tool (e.g., pipe cleaner). |
If the problem persists after performing these checks, please contact AEG customer service.
