AEG SKS51240F0 - Manual (Page 19)

In the event of accidental de-
frosting, for example due to a
power failure, if the power has
been off for longer than the val-
ue shown in the technical charac-
teristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must
be consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-frozen
(after cooling).
3.4 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be-
ing used, can be thawed in the refrigera-
tor compartment or at room tempera-
ture, depending on the time available
for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still
frozen, directly from the freezer: in this
case, cooking will take longer.
3.5 Temperature Indicator
This appliance is sold in France.
In accordance with regulations
valid in this country it must be
provided with a special device
(see figure) placed in the lower
compartment of the fridge to in-
dicate the coldest zone of it.
3.6 Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equip-
ped with a series of runners so that the
shelves can be positioned as desired.
3.7 Positioning the door
shelves
To permit storage of food packages of
various sizes, the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.

low temperature and the appliance is
fully loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice on
the evaporator. If this happens, set the
Temperature Regulator toward warm-
er settings to allow automatic defrost-
