Measuring The Temperature; Switching Off; Alarms And Other Features; Lighting - Electrolux ERC3711WS Instruction Booklet

Measuring the temperature

If the temperature is measured using a standard,
single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of
water centrally placed inside the appliance. This will
reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do
not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly
on the shelf.

Switching off

Switch off the cabinet by pressing the power switch.
Keep the button pressed for approx. 1 second.
Power to the cabinet is completely
interrupted only when the power plug is
disconnected.

Alarms and other features

Door open alarm
If the fridgedoor remains open for more than 5
minutes, the red warning lamp starts flashing and an
audible alarm sounds.
To switch off the alarm:
Press the "alarm shut-off button". The red warning
lamp goes out when the door is closed.

Lighting

The cooler lighting may be turned on with the door
closed. This makes it easy to survey the contents of
the cooler without opening the door. The cooler
lighting should normally be off, so that the wine is
not unduly exposed to light. The lighting turns off
automatically after about 5 minutes.

Cabinet interior

The shelves may be placed flat or at an angle.
Angle the shelf by placing the front pegs in a lower
set of tracks. You can store already opened bottles on
the shelf in this position.

Hints and Tips

Energy Saving Advice

·
Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is
placed. See the section "Installation". When
installed correctly, the cabinet will consume less
energy.
·
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
·
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
door from closing properly.
·
It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the appliance
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
·
Make sure the door gasket is complete and
always clean.
