Frequently Asked Questions

For best results when cleaning your stainless steel range:
• Clean it using warm, soapy water and a clean sponge or cloth. Do not use an abrasive cloth or pad.
• Always rinse your range thoroughly with clean water. If the soap or other cleanser isn’t rinsed off, it might produce a permanent bluish stain once the range is heated.
• After you’ve rinsed it, dry the range with a soft, clean cloth.

Tip: If you choose to use a kitchen cleanser rather than soapy water, use only cleansers that are specially made for cleaning stainless steel – avoid harsh scrubbing cleansers.

If your range does not appear to be level, try the following:
• Adjust the range’s leveling legs. It’s possible that your oven was not level when it was installed. To check this, simply place a rack in the center of the oven, then place a level on the rack and adjust the leveling legs.
• Check your kitchen cabinet alignment. The position of your cabinets may make your oven appliance appear to not be level. Be sure your cabinets are square, and that they leave sufficient room for appliance clearance.
• Be sure your kitchen floor is level. Check your floor to be sure it’s level, strong, and stable enough to adequately support the appliance. If the floor is sagging or sloping, you might want to contact a carpenter to correct it.

Yes, this is normal. The fan stays on for a period of time in order to help cool the oven.

Many factors can affect baking, and you can help ensure best results by following these recommendations:
• Make sure the oven rack position is the right one for the dish you’re preparing.
• Place your food in the center of the oven.
• If you’re placing more than one pan in the oven, be sure to allow space between them so that air can circulate.
• Preheat your oven to the desired temperature before placing food in it.
• If necessary, try adjusting your recipe’s suggested cooking time and temperature.

Imagine stress-free holiday cooking. Select models offer the Perfect Turkey® Button, which ensures moist, delicious poultry every time. The oven can be programmed for Perfect Turkey® at any temperature between 170°F and 550°F, with a default temperature of 325°F. The probe default temperature for the Perfect Turkey® feature is 180°F.

You might see an orange flame if there are dust particles in your main gas line. Simply turn your burner on for a few minutes, until the flame turns blue.

Note: In coastal areas, it is normal to regularly see a flame that is slightly orange. This is caused by the salt in the air.

If your cooktop’s electric burners don’t turn on, check the following:
• The control. Be sure to use the correct control for the element needed and ensure that it is ON.
• The heat setting. Turn the control to a slightly higher setting until the element comes on.
• Power to appliance. Reset the cooktop by turning the breaker off and then on again.
• Your electricity source. If a power outage has occurred, you might want to call your local electric company.
If the burners still do not turn on, contact your dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX.

Brown streaks, spots, or other marks are most likely caused by food boiling over and then being cooked onto your oven’s surface. You can remove them by carefully using a razor blade to scrape them off. 

Tip: Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleanser to the surface and buff using a nonabrasive cloth or pad. This will make future cleanup of food easier, and the special cooktop cleansing cream leaves a protective finish that helps prevent scratches.

If your cooktop doesn’t seem to be heating, it might be because:
• You need to check the placement of your cookware. If you have an induction cooktop, be sure that the bottom of your pot or pan is large enough for the cooking zone you’re using, and that it is centered on it.
• Your cookware isn’t compatible with an induction cooktop. Our induction cooktop surfaces are compatible with most cookware you might use – if a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pot or pan, it will work on an induction cooktop.
• No cookware was placed on your induction cooktop. If you’re using an induction cooktop, it will not turn on unless a pot or pan has been placed on it.
• The cooktop’s control needs to be adjusted. Make sure the right control is turned on for the element you’re using, and that the setting isn’t too low. (Try turning it to a slightly higher setting until the element turns on.)
• The power cord isn’t plugged in.
• The wiring is not complete. Contact your local dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX

• A built-in range is designed to slide in and fit flush with your countertop. This is ideal for an island and can also be used in a regular setting to showcase a decorative backsplash. With a built-in range (also called a slide-in range), the cooktop and oven controls are at the front of the appliance.
• A freestanding range is used in traditional installations (against the kitchen wall), and typically has controls at the back of the cooktop.

Electrolux ranges have Luxury-Glide® oven racks, which are designed to move effortlessly. To keep your oven racks gliding smoothly when you’re removing or inserting them, we recommend lightly applying cooking oil along their outer edges

To close an open door when it’s in the locked position and the door is open, press and hold the oven door light switch while following these simple steps:
• Program the oven to self-clean.
• Wait 20 seconds.
• Cancel self-clean.
• Wait 20 seconds.
You should then be able to close the door.

Electrolux ranges offer Perfect Convect3®, which features a third convection element for consistently even results, up to 30% faster cooking times, and even more baking options.

Convection cooking is cooking with the added advantage of airflow circulation, which allows for a more even distribution of heat. By using the forced flow of hot air, convection cooking produces the following benefits:
• Cooking time is approximately 25 – 30% faster than in conventional ovens, saving energy.
• The more even distribution of heat results in food that is more evenly baked.
• Generally, less heat is required than with a conventional oven – a convection oven usually cooks at 25°F below a conventional oven's required temperature. So simply program your oven according to your recipe’s temperature requirements and press “Convection Conversion,” and the oven will automatically convert the temperature.

If you have cast-iron grates, follow these steps:
• Wash the grates in the dishwasher.
• Coat the grates with a thin layer of cooking oil.
• Bake the grates in the oven at 350˚F for 10 minutes.

If you have porcelain-coated grates, simply place them in the dishwasher and coat any unfinished areas with a thin layer of cooking oil after washing

If your burner is only partially lit, it could be because it is clogged. Be sure to turn the burner off, then use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean its openings.

A partial flame might also be caused by moisture remaining in the burner after it has been cleaned. If you think this might be the case, lightly fan the flame and allow the burner to operate until the flame is full.

Discoloration that has a metallic sheen can be caused by mineral deposits from water and food. You can help prevent it by using cookware with a clean and dry bottom surface, and you can remove it with a ceramic/glass cooktop cleaning cream.

• The cooktop is not sensing compatible cookware. Our induction cooktops are compatible with most cookware you might use – if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot or pan, it will work.
• Cookware was removed from the cooktop, but the cooktop wasn’t turned off. If this is the case, place the pot or pan back on the cooktop or, if you’re finished cooking, simply turn off the cooktop.
• The cookware isn’t centered over the element.
• The cookware is the incorrect size.

Electrolux induction hybrid cooktops include a combination of electric elements that are compatible with all cookware, and induction elements that are compatible with most cookware. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot or pan, it will work on your Electrolux cooktop.

Cookware made of aluminum, copper, or glass (including Pyrex) is not compatible with an induction cooktop. In addition, some types of stainless steel may not work on an induction surface, or may heat very slowly.

Tip: Do not let your pots or pans boil dry. Doing so may cause permanent damage to a ceramic cooktop (breakage, fusion, or marring that is not covered by your warranty).

A recipe for success in any kitchen, Electrolux built-in and freestanding ranges serve up a variety of cooking options in a stylishly designed range that looks good anywhere. From the oven to the cooktop, our ranges are full of thoughtful features that help serious multi-taskers in their kitchens.

Available in electric, gas and dual-fuel configurations, Electrolux ranges are perfect for replacement, remodels or new construction.

To self-clean your oven, follow these simple steps:
• Remove the oven racks.
• Set your oven control to “Clean.”
• Select a cleaning time or choose a cleaning level: light, medium, or heavy. For typical cleaning needs, we recommend that you select a cleaning time of three hours or choose the medium setting.
• Select “Start.” (To set a delayed start, see your Use & Care Guide.)
Note: For safety reasons, the over door will remain locked until the oven cools down. When it is sufficiently cool, the door will automatically unlock.

If you see an “E” and two digits, it means that the oven has detected a condition it needs to check. To help correct this, try the steps below:
• Reset the cooktop’s main controls by turning the power to your cooktop off, and then back on.
• Check to see if the rest of your oven is operating.
• Be sure that the time of day is set. The time must be set in order for the oven to operate.
If you continue to see the “E,” record the number and turn the power supply back off. Then contact your dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 
1-877-4 ELECTROLUX.

Electrolux ranges offer thoughtful design, both inside and out. Luxury-Glide® oven racks with a ball-bearing system are so smooth, they extend effortlessly.

If your cooktop’s gas burners don’t light, check the following:
• The control knob. Be sure the control knob is completely turned on. Push it in and turn it to “Light” until the burner ignites, then turn the knob to the desired flame level.
• The burners. Check your burners for clogs. Be sure to turn them off, then use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean their openings. For detailed instructions, see your Use & Care Guide.
• Your electricity source. If a power outage has occurred, you might want to call your local electric company.
If the burners still do not light, contact your dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX

Designed with a dual-flame, sealed burner, this cooktop offers the widest range of BTU performance in the industry, for the utmost versatility – from a roaring 18,000-BTU boil to a gentle 450-BTU simmer.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply recommended cooktop cleanser to the surface and buff using a nonabrasive cloth or pad. The special cooktop cleansing cream leaves a protective finish that helps prevent scratches and abrasions.

To further prevent scratches on your cooktop surface:

• Be sure that the cooktop and any pots, pans, or utensils you use are clean. If coarse particles (such as salt) come between your cooktop and utensils, scratches can result.
• Use pots and pans that have a smooth, flat bottom.
• Use cleaning materials that are recommended for ceramic/glass cooktops.

Any small scratches that occur will not affect your cooktop’s performance, and will become less visible over time.

For your safety, there are a few conditions that will cause your cooktop to automatically turn off, including:
• The heat sensor has detected a high temperature inside the oven. We recommend that you check to be sure the appliance’s vent holes are not blocked.
• Fluids have spilled onto the cooktop, or an object is lying on its control area. Simply clean any spills or remove any objects, then turn your cooktop back on.
• Your cooktop has been in use continuously for over 12 hours. Sensing this extended use will cause the cooktop to turn off.

With faster, more responsive heating, more energy-efficient cooking and easier cleaning, induction takes cooking to a whole new level. It combines the benefits of gas and electric cooktops – merging the power of gas with the easy cleanup of electric.

Using electromagnetic energy, heat is transferred directly to the cookware, so the cooktop remains cooler. And induction allows for more precise control when cooking – you can instantly adjust the heat to a delicate simmer or bring it to a quick boil.

There are many factors that can affect cooking, but you can help ensure best results by following these recommendations:
• Use heavier, high-quality cookware that is compatible with induction. High-quality cookware that is heavier and has a flat bottom will help your food cook more evenly.
• Use the correct size cookware. The two induction cooking zones available on the cooktop require a specific pan size to be used at each location. The inner ring of each cooking zone is your guide to the correct minimum pan size. The pan bottom must fully cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur. The thicker outer ring around each cooking zone is helpful to determine the maximum pan size.
• Adjust the recipe's suggested temperature or cooking time. Your induction cooktop provides exceptional temperature control that allows you to adjust heat with greater accuracy than gas or electric cooktops, especially at lower settings. It’s perfect for melting chocolate and cooking delicate foods and sauces.

To register your freestanding or built-in range, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail.
• You will need to know your model number and serial number, which can be found on the serial plate located on the right side of the lower drawer. This information can also be found on your product registration card.
• You will also need to know the date of product purchase shown on your receipt.Tip: It’s always a good idea to record your range’s model, serial number, and the date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt.

For best results, we recommend heating your bowls and plates at 140°F. Place empty dishes on the rack, keeping them off the bottom of the warmer drawer.

To heat a dish more than 140°F, or to heat your fine china, be sure to check the manufacturer’s guidelines for maximum heat tolerance.

Not all types of cookware/dinnerware are recommended for use in your warmer drawer. Please consult your owner's manual for information.

If you need to remove the warmer drawer, follow these steps:
1. First, turn the power off the circuit breaker.
2. Open the warmer drawer to the “fully opened” position.
3. Locate the glide levers on each side of the drawer.
4. Pull up on the right glide lever, and push down on the left glide lever.
5. Pull the warmer drawer away from the range.

The temperature settings you can choose for your warmer drawer are:
• Auto (default): 170°F / 76°C
• Minimum to keep warm: 150°F / 66°C
• Maximum to keep warm: 190°F / 88°C

To put your warmer drawer back in place: 
Pull the plastic slider to the front of the glide slots on each side of the warmer drawer cavity.Align the glide on each side of the warmer drawer with the glide slot in the drawer cavity.Push the warmer drawer into the drawer cavity approximately two inches, until the glide levers click.If you do not hear the glide levers click, or if the warmer drawer does not feel like it is secured in place, remove the drawer and repeat steps 1 through 3. 

The humidity control is located on the inside of the warmer drawer. You can choose any position between Moist and Crispy. To set the control:
1. Unscrew the knob slightly.
2. Slide the controller to the desired location.
3. Screw the knob back in place.

The Electrolux warmer drawer keeps food or plates warm and ready to serve. It’s the perfect solution when dinner is delayed, or when multicourse meals are on the menu.

For best results when cleaning the interior of your warmer drawer and its door, we recommend the following:
1. Use a cleaner made especially for stainless steel, and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Be sure to thoroughly rinse the cleaner from the warmer drawer interior and door. 
3. Do NOT clean the door gasket. The gasket is essential to maintaining a good seal, so it’s best not to rub or remove it.

Closing the humidity control vent will keep your food from drying out while it’s being kept warm for serving. To keep food crispy while it’s in the warming drawer, turn on the humidity control.

To register your warmer drawer, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail. 
• You will need to know your model and serial number, which can be found on the serial plate located on the right side of the drawer frame. This information can also be found on your product registration card.
• You will also need to know the date of purchase of your appliance, shown on your receipt.

Tip: It's always a good idea to record your warmer drawer’s model number, serial number, and the date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt.

For the best ventilation of your kitchen, the only air currents should be those that are created by the ventilation hood.

While you’re cooking, try to reduce drafts in your kitchen as much as you can. A draft that blows across your range or cooktop can cause the heat, steam, moisture, grease, and aromas to escape from your ventilation hood.

To ensure the most effective performance, turn on your ventilation hood a few minutes before cooking. This will establish the upward air currents that will carry away the heat, smoke, moisture, grease, or cooking aromas that might be produced. Keep your ventilation hood turned on for about five minutes after you have finished cooking.

For best results, use a fan speed that’s just high enough to draw steam and cooking odors up and out of your kitchen, adjusting the fan as needed during the cooking process.

For gas cooktops, it’s best to use the lowest fan setting on your ventilation hood. In general, you’ll know you need to lower the fan speed if the gas flame is being blown by the air movement, if the burner continually sparks or clicks, or if the burner flame repeatedly blows out.

Add elegance and innovation to your kitchen with an Electrolux ventilation hood. It quietly and swiftly whisks away cooking aromas, while adding a splash of sophistication to your surroundings. Available in 42", 36", and 30" configurations, Electrolux ventilation hoods:
• Swiftly whisk steam and cooking odors out of your kitchen.
• Operate quietly, leaving plenty of room for conversation in your kitchen.
• Can be mounted above your island, above your peninsula, or on your wall.

The racks of the wine cooler allow for horizontal storage of wine – your bottles will be positioned so that the wine remains in contact with the cork, assuring that the cork does not dry out.

For best results when stocking your wine cooler:
• Store white and sparkling wines on the bottom to middle racks.
• Store red wine on the top racks. 
• Stock your wine cooler starting from the bottom rack and work to the top, and stock each rack starting from the back.

In the event of a power failure, an audible alert will sound, and the “Power Fail” indicator on the right side of the wine cooler’s display will blink. 

The “Mute Sounds” indicator will also blink. You can press this to acknowledge the alert and turn off the alert sound. Once you do, the Power Fail indicator will turn off and the wine cooler will resume normal operation. 

Note: Until you acknowledge the alert, you cannot adjust any other functions on the control panel.

If wine is your passion – or if you just like having your favorite vintages close at hand – our wine cooler is a must. With an ample 46-bottle capacity, exceptionally precise temperature control, and versatile installation options, the wine cooler lets you confidently store – and proudly display – your favorite vintages.

To register your wine cooler, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail.
• You will need to know your model and serial number, which can be found on the serial plate located on the ceiling of your unit. This information can also be found on your product registration card.
• You will also need to know the date of purchase of your appliance, shown on your receipt.

Tip: It’s always a good idea to record your wine cooler’s model number, serial number, and the date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt. 

Features like the Perfect Stemware™ cycle help ensure you have spotlessly clean stemware. To further help your dishes emerge from the dishwasher spot-free and with no cloudiness, try the following:
• If you have hard water, you may need a water softener. To determine your water hardness, contact your water supplier.
• Avoid overloading or improperly loading your dishwasher.
• Use the appropriate amount of fresh detergent. Sometimes old detergent doesn’t fully dissolve – and this can result in streaks or spots.
• Be sure the rinse aid dispenser is full.
• You can check with your local utility to ensure that the water pressure in your home is between 20 and 120 psi (pounds per square inch).
• Be sure that the water coming into your dishwasher is hot water. The water should be at least 120°F (49°C).

Electrolux makes it easy to protect your dishes with the Sure-2-Fit™ racking system. It’s the most versatile racking system – there’s a perfect place for over 180 items, from chopsticks to stockpots to stemware.2 There’s also an adjustable/removable top rack for the utmost flexibility. In its lowest position select models have the ability to fit 10" dinner plates in the top rack and 12" dinner plates in the bottom rack.

To keep your dishwasher as clean as possible, follow these steps:

Outside: Occasionally wipe the outside surfaces of your dishwasher with a mild, nonabrasive detergent and water, then rinse and dry.

Stainless steel door: Clean the stainless steel door and handle with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth, then rinse with clean water and a cloth. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners – use only kitchen cleaners made especially for cleaning stainless steel.

Stainless steel interior: Remove spots on the door and inside the dishwasher with a damp, nonabrasive cloth.

Stainless steel filters: Your dishwasher is equipped with a state-of-the-art wash system. Periodically, you may need to clean the glass trap filter and the large food particle trap in order to maximize your dishwasher’s performance. The glass trap filter is located in the center of the large food particle trap, and is designed to collect pieces of broken glass, straws, bones, and pits. To remove items in the glass trap filter, grasp the handle, lift it out, empty it, and replace it.

Tip: You can use a water filter attached to your dishwasher to help prevent iron deposits (which appear as a yellow or brown film) from forming on your dishes.

Depending on the model of dishwasher you have, you’ll know that the cycle is complete if you see the blue LED light shining on the floor, or if CLEAN is illuminated in the dishwasher’s display.

Etching can be caused by using too much detergent or by soft water, either of which can produce a film that cannot be removed. To help prevent this:
• Adjust the amount of detergent you use based on the hardness or softness of your water.
• Lower your water temperature, but be sure to keep it above the minimum recommended temperature of 120°F.

Reminder: The temperature of water entering your dishwasher may drop considerably in the winter, depending on where your plumbing runs in relation to the outside walls of your home. Check to see that your water temperature can reach at least 120°F (49°C).

If your dishwasher won't fill, first be sure that your water supply is on and available. Once you're sure that it is, add ½ cup of water to the bottom of the dishwasher and start it again.

The high-efficiency fan of the Luxury-Dry™ System produces outstanding drying results. In addition, to ensure that your dishes are dry after your dishwasher cycle is complete, follow these steps: 
• Be sure the racks are loaded correctly. Cups and bowls should be loaded facing down, to allow for maximum drying and to prevent water from collecting in them.
• Be sure the rinse aid dispenser is full, because the rinse aid is a very important part of maximizing your dishwasher’s drying capability. Check the low rinse aid indicator on your control panel and if it is low, refill the dispenser located on your dishwasher’s door.
• Check to see that your water temperature can reach at least 120°F (49°C).

Here’s another tip: Simply use the hi-temp or sanitize setting for increased drying performance.

When shopping for an appliance, it's easy to recognize the ENERGY STAR® label that identifies qualified products. This label means that the product passed stringent standards set by the U.S. Department of Energy. Additionally, manufacturers are required to display their products’ test results on the ENERGY STAR® label. The label will tell you about the product's efficiency level, including approximately how much energy the appliance uses, its average annual operating cost, and how its energy use compares with that of similar products.

The Electrolux dishwasher is the quietest in its class. Your Electrolux dishwasher will run at 45 dBA. It’s so quiet that you can run it whenever you want and no one will notice.

It is normal to see a small amount of water under the filter at the end of a cycle.

If there is too much water at the bottom of your dishwasher once a cycle is complete, the dishwasher may not be draining properly, or its filter may need to be cleaned. 

If your dishwasher won’t run, check to determine if it might be due to one of the following reasons:
• A circuit breaker is tripped in your home, or a fuse is blown.
• The water supply to your home is not on.
• The dishwasher’s cycle setting needs to be checked and adjusted.
• The dishwasher’s DELAY START option was selected.
• The door of the dishwasher is not completely closed and latched.

In the unlikely event a leak should occur, the Leak Detection System should detect it and immediately stop and drain the dishwasher while sounding an audible and visible alert.

To help prevent leaks, you can:
• Be sure to wipe up any spilled rinse aid, because it can cause excess foam which might overflow.
• Use only fresh detergent designed for automatic dishwashers, and be sure to carefully measure and use the correct amount.
• Make sure your dishwasher is level on the floor.

If you see detergent remaining in the dispenser after a cycle is finished, try the following:
• Be sure to use fresh detergent, as older detergent might not dissolve well.
• Check to ensure that the spray arm is not blocked, so that water from it can reach the dispenser.
• Check to see if the cycle has completed.
• When loading the dishwasher, make sure the detergent dispenser can open freely.
• Before you close the door, check that the upper rack is firmly attached to with the nozzle on the back of the dishwasher.

Products that are ENERGY STAR® qualified are equivalent to or better than standard products, with one important difference: They use less energy. To earn the ENERGY STAR® rating, products must meet strict energy efficiency criteria set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the U.S. Department of Energy. Because they use less energy, these products save money on your electricity bill and help protect the environment by reducing harmful emissions from power plants. Plus, you get all of the features and quality you expect.

Our Electrolux dishwashers bring home the distinctive styling of premium European design. The beauty of the solid handle highlights the simple, yet dramatic lines of the sleek door. The flush-to-counter styling and integrated controls add to the understated elegance of the exterior. But the real beauty is what’s inside – ingenious features that make cleaning up after big parties or small meals a breeze.

If you see food particles on your dishes after they have been run through the dishwasher’s cycle, try the following: 
• Choose a cycle with a longer wash time, especially if dishes are extra soiled.
• Be sure that the dishwasher racks are properly loaded. Avoid overcrowding.
• Check with your local utility company to ensure that the water pressure in your home is between 20 and 120 psi (pounds per square inch). 
• Check to determine whether you have hard water. If so, you may need a water softener. To determine your water hardness, contact your water supplier or county extension office.
• Use fresh detergent, because old detergent is not always effective.
• Check to see that the dishwasher’s spray arms are not blocked.
• Be sure that the water coming into your dishwasher is hot water. The water should be at least 120°F (49°C).

If it seems like your dishwasher should drain faster, try the following:
• If your dishwasher is connected to a garbage disposal, run the disposal to clear the drain system.
• If you have a new garbage disposal, or if it’s the first time you’ve used your dishwasher, the “knock-out” plug might need to be removed from the disposal. (This step can occasionally be overlooked during installation.)
• Check the drain hose to be sure it is free of kinks.
• Make sure the wash cycle is complete, and not paused.

Electrolux dishwashers have a variety of cycles for you to choose from, depending on your cleaning needs and preferred timing. The different options can impact the time it takes for a wash cycle to complete. Some options that impact the running time of a cycle include:

• The delay start option, which will postpone the start of the cycle until the time you have selected. It is designed to allow you to control when your dishwasher runs – choose to have it run it when it’s most convenient for you, or to coincide with lower energy rates.
• The sanitize option, which takes longer to wash and dry. This option uses higher heat for maximum cleaning, and offers maximum drying capabilities.
It can also be normal for the wash cycle to be momentarily delayed if water needs to be heated to the appropriate temperature.

Electrolux dishwashers use 41% less energy and 40% less water than they did 10 years ago. So they’re good to your dishes and the environment.

To register your dishwasher, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail.
• You will also need to know your model and serial number to register, which can be found on the serial plate located on the right side of the door/tub. This information can also be found on your production registration card.
• You will also need to know the date of purchase of your appliance, shown on your receipt.

Tip: It’s always a good idea to record your dishwasher’s model number, serial number, and the date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt. 

For the best drying results, choose the SANITIZE option and be sure to use a rinse aid such as Jet Dry®.

The Electrolux Premium Laundry Collection has amazing features that allow you to effortlessly keep up with your family’s wardrobe changes.

Electrolux front load washers have many advantages over standard top-load washers:

• Front load washers have no center agitator and rely on tumbling to wash gently and rinse completely. This helps your clothes feel fresher and last longer.
• Front load washers save energy and water by automatically sensing the amount of water your laundry load requires and adjusting the water level accordingly.
• The installation options for front load washers are more flexible than standard top-load units, to better suit the style of your home and lifestyle. Many Electrolux models have reversible washer and dryer doors and all of them can be stacked. You can also create a more ergonomically friendly space by installing pedestal drawers if you prefer the washer and dryer side by side.

The model number and serial number are located on a sticker that you’ll see in the interior space of the unit when the door is open, depending on the model.

For optimal care of your washer, please refer to the guidelines included in your Use & Care Guide. However, here are some quick tips:

• Promptly remove finished loads
• Clean the top and sides of the washer with a damp cloth or mild soap and water. Be sure to avoid hard, gritty or abrasive cleansers.
• Crack the door open when your washer is not in use to keep it fresh. Some models have a feature that props the door open when the washer is not in use.
• When washing heavily soiled items, shake or brush off excess dirt and sand before putting them in the washer. If any dirt remains in the drum after washing, wipe it with a non-abrasive cleaner, then rinse.

Most models have a System Clean Cycle or Clean Washer Cycle and will automatically prompt you to run the cycle every 50 wash cycles. This feature uses hot water and two rinses to remove any odor-causing residue in your washer. Your Use & Care Guide will provide more information.

Electrolux Pedestal Drawers can help you organize your entire laundry room. They’re perfect for storing laundry supplies, extra towels, cleaning supplies and more. They can also ensure your washer is at the optimal height for loading and unloading.

If Pedestal Drawers won’t work in your laundry room, you may also consider using a Stacking Kit, which allows you to stack your units for convenient installation in closets and other compact spaces.

If your unit has reversible doors, there will be visible notches where the hinge can be reattached.   You may also review your model’s Installation Guide to tell if your unit has reversible doors. To review your Installation Guide, go to the product support page search for your model number, click on your model number, and scroll down to the Product Manuals section.  

Electrolux recommends using a high-efficiency (HE) detergent for front load washers. HE detergents are designed for front load washers like ours, which use lower water levels. They are also formulated to reduce soap suds and ensure proper cleaning.

Non-HE detergents may cause excessive generation of soap suds and result in detergent residue on your clothing at the end of the cycle.

Always refer to your detergent manufacturer instructions for the proper dosage. Do not fill any compartments in your dispenser beyond the maximum amount line.

We recommend liquid or powder detergent over the use of PODS in front load washers. We are unable to guarantee the pod will dissolve at the correct time during the wash cycle to ensure proper cleaning performance. If pods are used, please place the pod directly into the washer drum BEFORE placing laundry into the unit. This will help mix the detergent into the water. Do not place the pod in the detergent drawer as the gel coating may cause the detergent drawer to become clogged.

For liquid detergent, ensure the flap is in the downward position. Add the recommended amount of liquid detergent to the Main Wash compartment.

 For powder detergent, ensure the flap is in the upward position. Add the recommended amount of high-efficiency powder detergent to the Main Wash compartment.

When choosing a water temperature, these are the basic points to consider:

• Hot water cleans most effectively for heavily soiled items
• Warm water can be used for most normally soiled loads.
• Cold water is recommended for lightly soiled or brightly colored or dark items.

To compensate for a cooler wash, it may be necessary to soak or prewash heavily soiled items, increase wash time or use additional laundry products to boost the detergent’s cleaning power. Your Use & Care Guide will provide more information and helpful tips.

To protect your fabrics, not all temperatures are available with every cycle. If a temperature is not appropriate for the cycle, it cannot be selected. Your Electrolux Front Load Washer is smart. It will remember the temperature you select for a cycle and recall it each time until you change it.

All wash water temperatures are automatically regulated to maximize detergent effectiveness and improve washing performance. The water temperature can be affected by a variety of factors including the water heater setting and its distance from the washer, water usage in other parts of the home and seasonally low ground water temperature in some geographic areas.

If you want to increase the water temperature for your washer, consider the following:

• Your water heater setting. It is recommended that you set your water heater to 120 degrees or higher to ensure proper performance.
• Are you using an Energy Star rated appliance? Energy-saving washers have controls that supply cooler warm water as a means to save energy and money. These water temperatures may seem cooler than what you are used to in an older, high-energy-use machine; however, the washer is performing properly.
• Some Electrolux Front Load Washers include a heater to automatically adjust the temperature of the water. The temperature setting is adjusted by the machine, depending on which cycle settings and options you select.

Our Electrolux Front Load Washers come with a variety of wash options. You can reference your Use & Care Guide for more information.

If your model begins with EFLS617, EFLS517, or EFLS417:
To select or delete an option, press Options; then, while the indicator is blinking, press Set. The indicator will be illuminated when the option has been selected and the light will go off when the option has been deleted.

Based on your detergent choice, here are some helpful tips:

Liquid: Add high efficiency liquid detergent to the Main Wash – Liquid Only cup. Do not exceed the MAX fill line.

Powder: To use a high efficiency powder detergent, remove the Main Wash – Liquid Only cup and add the powder directly to the Main Wash detergent chamber. It’s important to save the liquid cup insert in case you need it for future use.

Pods: Place the pod directly into the washer drum BEFORE placing laundry into the unit. NOTE: We recommend liquid or powder detergent over the use of PODS in front load washers. We are unable to guarantee the pod will dissolve at the correct time during the wash cycle to ensure proper cleaning performance.

Liquid Bleach: If desired, add liquid chlorine bleach to the chamber labeled Liquid Bleach.

Liquid Fabric Softener: If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the chamber labeled Fabric Softener.

Stain Additives: For heavily soiled or stained loads, select the Stain option (StainTreat, StainTreat II, or StainSoak) and add the recommended amount of detergent or stain additive to the Pre-Wash chamber. See Cycle Options in your Use & Care Guide for more information about the Stain options for your model.

NOTE: Always refer to your detergent manufacturer instructions for the proper dosage. Do not fill any compartments in your dispenser beyond the maximum amount line.

Electrolux SmartBoost™ Technology is a feature that is available on some models. Unlike other washers, it automatically pre-mixes your detergent with water to maximize its power before the cycle begins. This results in a deeper clean and more effective stain removal.

Perfect Steam™ is a feature that is available on most models. It removes tough stains by allowing steam to rise from the bottom and gently lifting dirt and stains from fibers.

Fast Wash is a feature that is available on most models. This cycle is recommended for small, lightly soiled loads.  The Fast Wash times vary by model.

The Sanitize temperature option on your washing machine is designed to reduce the amount of microorganisms on your clothing and prevent them from contaminating subsequent loads of laundry.

It is recommended that you set your water heater to 120 degrees or higher to ensure proper performance during this cycle. If the setting is lower or the load is extra-large, the cycle time may be extended.

If your washer is vibrating, it may be due to installation issues related to one of the reasons below:

• The washer needs to be resting firmly on the floor. The washer must be level (both front to back and side to side), with each washer leg placed solidly on the floor. You can adjust the leveling legs by turning the legs slightly in or out until the washer sets solidly on the floor, then tighten the lock nuts. For maximum stability, leveling legs should not extend more than one-half inch below the washer bottom.
• The washer needs to be installed on a sturdy, hard floor. It is not recommended that you install the washer on carpeting.
• Shipping materials may not have been removed during the installation. You may refer to your Installation instructions to remove the five shipping bolts, five yellow spacers, and four plastic “P” clamps from the back of the washer. Make sure the Styrofoam shipping blocks have been removed from the bottom of the washer.
• The load may be off balance. Pause the cycle, wait for the safety lock to release on the door, and redistribute the clothes evenly in the washer. If the load remains out of balance, simply add one or two similar items to the load and restart the washer.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

It is normal for a heavy wash load to occasionally produce a thumping sound at the beginning of the Spin cycle. Belt buckles or other metal fasteners on items being washed may cause rattling or clanking sounds, too. You can fasten these items or turn garments inside out to reduce the sounds.

Rattling or clanking may also be caused by foreign objects (such as coins) in the drum. If you think this is the issue, stop the washer and check for any objects in the drum. If none are present and the sound continues, we recommend running an empty load to see if the noise still continues. This will allow you to determine if the noise is coming from the unit or an article that was being washed. If the noise is still present during the empty load, please contact us

If your washer does not start, check the following:

• Some models have a Power button that must be pressed before you select the wash cycle and options.
• Once you have selected the wash cycle and options, don’t forget to press Start.
• Some models have touch screens (similar to smartphones), which means you must use your fingertip to make selections on the control panel.
• Make sure you have not unintentionally activated the Delay Start option.
• The wash cycle is in a pause stage. This is normal, a pause occurs between the Wash and Spin cycles, with a longer pause occurring during the Soak cycle. With front load washers, normal pauses also occur as part of the reverse tumbling action. If the light next to the Start/Pause button is flashing, this may be an indication that the unit is paused. Press the Start/Pause button again to resume the cycle.
• The power cord may not be plugged in or the connection may be loose. Check that your washer’s plug fits tightly into the wall outlet. Note: Do not use an extension cord. The power to the washer may be greatly reduced and not allow your washer to perform properly.
• The door may not be closed. For your safety, the washer will not operate when the door is not closed properly.
• The water valves must be turned on and water available to the unit.
• Ensure the water pressure in your house is high enough for the unit to operate properly.
• A fuse may be blown in your home, or a circuit breaker tripped. If this is the case, reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse (but do not increase the fuse capacity). If you have an overloaded circuit, please contact a qualified electrician.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

Your Electrolux Front Load washer will automatically determine the proper water level for each load, you don’t have to do anything to adjust it. Because this type of washer is water efficient, it’s normal for the water level to always be below the bottom of the door.

Electrolux Front Load washers are designed to both maximize water usage and the cleaning of your laundry. You will notice significantly less water usage in your front load washer than you are used to seeing in other units, especially top-load washers. The addition of extra water may actually result in your laundry not being cleaned as well. Tumbling action and recirculating pumps help distribute the water and detergent to clean your laundry more efficiently.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us

If water is flowing slowly into your washer, or not flowing at all, you might find a solution by checking the following:

• Hot and cold water faucets. Be sure that your water supply faucets are completely open.
• Water fill hoses. Check your water hoses to see if they are kinked. If so, simply straighten the hoses. You may need to replace the hoses if they do not remain straight.
• Water pressure. Your washer needs sufficient water pressure to fill up properly. Depending on the water pressure in your home, which varies, you may want to avoid excessive water use elsewhere in your home while the washer is filling.
• Water supply. Turn on another faucet in your home to check the water supply in your area. You may need to wait until your water supply and pressure increase before running your washer.
• The filter on the water valve. If the filter screens on your water valve are clogged, turn off your water faucets and remove the hoses from the water valve connections on the back of the washer. Clean the filter screens, then reconnect the hoses and turn on the water. Check for any leaks at the connections and tighten if necessary.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us

If water is flowing into your washer, but the drum does not fill, it might be due to one of the following reasons:

• Water pressure. Your washer needs sufficient water pressure to fill. Depending on the water pressure in your home, which varies, you may want to avoid excessive water use elsewhere in your home while the washer is filling.
• The drain standpipe length. To prevent siphoning off of incoming water, the standpipe cannot be too short, it must be at least 24 inches high.
• The drain hose fit. If the drain hose fits too tightly in the standpipe, siphoning could result. Be sure there is a gap between the drain hose and the standpipe, and that the standpipe is at least one-and-one quarter inches in diameter.
• The drain hose pushed too far down the standpipe. The drain hose should be securely inserted into the standpipe, but not so far down that it reaches the trap area of the standpipe plumbing.

If you have additional questions please refer to the Installation Instruction manual for your model.

Or you may contact us.

Yes, it is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser drawer. This is a result of the siphoning action and part of the operation of the washer.  If you like, you can simply remove the dispenser drawer and empty the water. Don’t forget to regularly clean your dispenser drawer to prevent clogs and buildup. For more information, please refer to your Use & Care Guide in the Care and Cleaning section.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us. 

If your clothes seem wetter than they should be after the Spin cycle, please check the following:

• The drain hose should be straight and unclogged. It should be securely inserted into the standpipe, but not so far in that it reaches the trap area of the standpipe plumbing. Inserting the drain hose too far can cause water from the drain to slowly siphon back into the washer.
• The load might be too small. If so, add a few similar items.
• The load might be too big. The drum of our washer should not be tightly packed with clothes (door should close easily).
• If this doesn’t happen often, select the Rinse and Spin cycle and deselect Extra Rinse as an option. This will allow the washer to perform only the Spin cycle on the load.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

If your load is out of balance, it may prevent the washer from spinning. Rearrange the items in your load to allow proper spinning, possibly adding one or two similar items to help balance the load. 

If the load is comprised of items that cannot be distributed around the drum, such as a single pillow or stuffed animal, the washer will not spin.  Additional items will need to be added to the unit to better balance the weight of the load.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us. 

If your washer is draining water slowly, you can check the following:

• The drain hose. If it’s kinked, straighten it to improve water flow to the drain.
• The drain. Be sure it’s clear and not clogged.
• The height of the standpipe (drain hose). It cannot be more than 96 inches high.
• The drain hose seal. If the drain hose has been taped (or sealed) into the standpipe, the seal should not be completely tight, because the standpipe needs air for proper draining. If necessary, remove some of the tape on the seal to make an air path.
• The drain hose fit. If it fits too tightly in the standpipe, create an air gap between the drain hose and the standpipe so that it can drain properly. The standpipe needs to be at least one-and-one-quarter inches in diameter.
• The amount of detergent. Using too much detergent can also inhibit draining.
• The pump. It’s possible that your pump, drain hose or coin trap filter may be clogged. If you suspect this is the case, you should contact an authorized service provider.

If water is leaking from your washer, check the list below:

• Is the drain clogged? If so, it will need to be cleaned, you may need to contact a plumber.
• Is the drain hose restricted or out of the standpipe? If it is out of the standpipe, you will need to secure it. You can do this by bending the end to form a hook, placing the hooked end into the standpipe, and tying the hose to the standpipe or a faucet with a cable tie (one was supplied with the washer), strong filament tape or duct tape.
• Are the fill hose connections loose or cross-threaded at the faucet or washer? Check by realigning the threads, make sure that the rubber sealing washers are in good shape and seated properly, and tighten the hose connections. If they are loose, you might need to reinstall or replace the rubber sealing washers.
• Are you using a non-HE detergent or too much detergent or do you have soft water? Using a non-HE detergent, or using too much detergent in soft water, can cause suds to overflow the washer. This may seem like a leak if the suds flow or drip onto the floor. To avoid this, use an HE detergent, and reduce the amount of detergent you use if your water is soft.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

For your safety, your washer’s door will be locked during the entire Wash cycle. However, if you need to add a forgotten item to the washer anytime during the wash portion of the cycle, press Pause. The door will then unlock as long as the water level is safely below the door opening. When the door unlocks, open the door, add the item, close the door and press Start to resume the cycle. To stop the cycle, press Cancel.

NOTE: If the cycle is interrupted during the Spin cycle, the door will not release until the tub has stopped spinning. DO NOT force the door open.

If the water level is at or above the bottom of the door, to prevent water spilling on your floor, the door will remain locked even if the cycle is paused or cancelled. To drain the unit, cancel the cycle and select the Rinse and Spin cycle, then select No Spin as the spin speed and deselect the Extra Rinse option. This will prompt the washer to simply drain the water from the drum, and then the cycle will end. Once the cycle is completed (in a couple of minutes), the door will unlock.

A number of things can increase the amount of suds produced when you wash a load of laundry, including:

• Detergent amount. For the best results, follow directions on the detergent bottle for the recommended amount of detergent, with adjustments for type and amount of soil, load size, and water hardness and temperature. The following scenarios may require the use of less detergent: small loads, less-soiled loads, hot water and soft water. Likewise, the following scenarios may result in the need for slightly more detergent: large loads, heavier-soiled loads, hard water or cold water.
• Soft water. You need less detergent when the water supply is naturally soft or mechanically softened.
• Detergent type. Your detergent should be compatible with your washer type. High-efficiency (HE) detergents are recommended for front load washers. They are formulated to reduce suds and ensure proper cleaning.
• Pretreated items. Because pretreated products remain on items that go in the wash, they can add to the amount of suds that your detergent normally produces. When using these products, simply use less than the recommended amount of detergent.
• Other laundry products. Products such as oxygen bleach can produce extra suds. Simply reduce the amount of detergent you use when you are also using products such as oxygen bleach.

You can remove excess suds by stopping the washer and performing one of the following procedures:

• Rewash the load in cold water without detergent and repeat, if necessary, until the final rinse water is clear.
• Select the Rinse and Spin cycle, which will cause the unit to run a short cycle that will rinse the extra detergent from the load. If the suds are excessive, this may need to be done multiple times before the clothes are fully rinsed of the excessive detergent.

Detergent residue can be caused by any of the below:

• Powder detergent that does not dissolve.
• Using too much detergent.
• Incomplete rinsing caused by an overloaded drum.
• Misuse of liquid fabric softener.
• Hard water.
• Low water pressure.
• Placing detergent, fabric softener or bleach in the wrong compartment of the dispenser.

To remove detergent residue, rewash the load in cold water without detergent and repeat, if necessary, until the final rinse water is clear. Or you may select the Rinse and Spin cycle, which will cause the unit to run a short cycle that will rinse the extra detergent from the load. If the suds are excessive, this may need to be done multiple times before the clothes are fully rinsed of the excessive detergent.

When cleaning your microwave, first be sure to disconnect the power cord or leave the door open to deactivate the oven during cleaning. Then simply wipe the interior or exterior with mild soap and water, rinse it, and use a soft cloth to dry it. Do not use any type of household cleaner, a chlorine-based product, or an abrasive cleaner.

Tip: For an added fresh touch, try using a mixture of cloves and mild soap for cleaning.

Freshness in your refrigerator or freezer can be affected by how food is stored. Some foods have a strong odor, so be sure to cover them tightly. 

After you’ve checked how your food is stored, try cleaning the interior of your freezer with a sponge, warm water, and baking soda.

Some Electrolux refrigerator models have an air filter to help keep the air in your refrigerator as fresh as possible. If yours does, check the filter and be sure to replace your PureAdvantage™ air filter every six months.

It is normal for the rate of frost buildup or “sweating” inside your refrigerator or freezer to increase when the weather is hot or humid. Other reasons you might see moisture inside your refrigerator or freezer can include: 
• The doors aren’t completely closed.
• Warm air has entered after the doors have been opened frequently.
• Uncovered food containers or very warm food has been placed inside the refrigerator or freezer, causing condensation. 
If moisture collects in refrigerator drawers, routinely clean out old fruits and vegetables. If your refrigerator has an adjustable humidity control, you can also try moving this to a lower setting.

Simply set the freezer control to a warmer/colder setting, allowing 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize. This won’t affect the temperature in your refrigerator.

Please note that it’s normal for your freezer to temporarily seem warmer if:
• You’ve recently placed large amounts of warm or hot food in it. Warmer items affect the freezer temperature; simply wait until it has had a chance to return to your selected setting.
• The door has been opened frequently. If warm air has been allowed in to the freezer, leave the door closed for awhile – the temperature will return to its desired setting.
• It has recently been disconnected for a period of time. After being reconnected, the freezer can take up to 24 hours to completely cool down again.

If your ice maker won’t stop making ice, it might be because its wire signal arm is being held down by an item in the freezer, or by ice cubes that have frozen together over the arm. If you see that this is the case, simply release the arm by moving the item or removing any ice cubes.

Simply set the refrigerator control to a colder/warmer setting, allowing 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize. This won’t affect the temperature in your freezer.

Please note that it’s normal for your freezer to temporarily seem warmer if the door has been opened frequently. If warm air has been allowed in to the freezer, leave the door closed for awhile – the temperature will return to its desired setting.

To keep your water tasting and smelling fresh, follow these steps:

• Draw and discard 10 to 12 glasses of water to freshen the supply in the dispenser and completely rinse out the tank.
• Connect the unit to the cold water line that supplies water to the kitchen faucet.
• For best results, use copper tubing for water connections.
• Replace your PureAdvantage™ water filtration system every six months.

If your water dispenser isn’t giving you any water, check the following:

• Be sure your water supply is connected to the refrigerator (see the Installation Instructions).
• Check that your household water line valve is open.
• Make sure that your freezer door is closed. 
• Check the refrigerator’s ice and water filter cartridges, because they might be clogged. Replace the PureAdvantage™ filter cartridge if needed, pushing firmly until the filter snaps into place (you’ll hear a click when it’s back in place).

Your refrigerator might seem to run more than normal if:

• The room or outdoor temperature is hot. It's normal for the refrigerator to work harder, and run longer, under these conditions.
• You use the ice maker, which can cause the unit to run more.
• The door has been opened frequently. If warm air has been allowed in to the refrigerator, simply leave the door closed for awhile-the temperature will return to its desired setting.
• Your refrigerator doors need to be completely closed.
• Your refrigerator has recently been disconnected for a period of time. After it starts up again, it will work harder to cool down completely (which can take up to 12 hours).
To stabilize, set your freezer control to a warmer setting, until your refrigerator is at a comfortable setting, and allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize.

Electrolux’s Fast Ice™ setting makes ice up to 50% faster than normal, or about 6 pounds of ice every 24 hours. If you are not using Fast Ice™, your ice maker should produce approximately 4-5 pounds of ice every 24 hours. 

Up to 9 pounds in 24 hours under normal conditions - 0F freezer, 37F fresh food and based on bottom freezer models with exterior ice and water and a suggested MSRP greater than $2700.

French door models feature a two-door refrigerator on top and freezer drawer on the bottom. The lower freezer is a pull-out basket. Many French door models also offer filtered ice and water dispensers in the door.

Side-by-side models feature two doors; the freezer is on the left and the refrigerator is on the right. The simple, yet stylish design makes it easy to organize and find items. Often they have ice and water dispensers in the door, and they work well when you don’t have a lot of space for the door to swing open.

Top freezer models with the freezer on top are good for smaller kitchens, offering roomy storage on wide shelves and a lower cost of operation. The direction the door opens can often be reversed to meet your specific needs.

Yes, this is normal. These sounds can be caused by the freezer’s metal parts as they expand and contract with temperature changes, or by the circulation of the refrigerant that’s used to cool the freezer. The sounds will fade or disappear entirely as your freezer continues to run.

To keep your ice tasting and smelling fresh:
• Cover your stored foods tightly. Odors in your freezer can be caused by how food is stored.
• Some foods have a strong odor, so be sure to cover them tightly. 
• Discard stale ice and allow the ice maker to produce a fresh supply.
• If your refrigerator has air and water filters, try replacing them.

It is normal for the outside freezer walls to be as much as 30ºF warmer than room temperature. This happens when the compressor is working to transfer heat from inside the freezer.

If you’re having difficulty closing your refrigerator door:
• Check to be sure nothing is preventing the door from closing, as items hanging over the edge of a shelf or bin can cause an obstruction.
• Close both doors gently.
• Ensure the floor is level and solid, and can adequately support the refrigerator. Contact a carpenter to correct a sagging or sloping floor.

If the temperature display is flashing, it means that the refrigerator’s electronic control system has detected a performance issue. Contact an Electrolux service provider for information about what the display means and what steps to take.

If the compressor isn’t running, it might simply be because your refrigerator is in defrost mode. This is normal and can last up to 30 minutes. 

You can also check the following:
• Be sure that your cooling system is turned on. 
• Be sure your refrigerator’s power cord is securely plugged into the outlet. Also, it is recommended that you not plug your refrigerator into a GFCI outlet (an outlet that has a “TEST” and “RESET” button). 
• Consider replacing your circuit or fuse with a 15-amp time-delay fuse. A time-delay fuse accepts a momentary overload (as when the compressor cycle is on) for a short period of time without blowing.
• You may want to reset your circuit breaker.

Electrolux’s French door refrigerators make up to 9 pounds of ice in 24 hours – twice the ice of any refrigerator ice maker. With Electrolux’s French door refrigerator, you’ll always have filtered, restaurant-quality ice in a new drink-friendly shape.

Electrolux refrigerators feature stylish European design and are loaded with ingenious features for the ultimate in fresh-food and beverage storage. When you want to stock up – whether it’s for a block party, the holidays, or just your weekly grocery shopping – Electrolux is the answer.
• Our counter-depth refrigerators offer a sleek, built-in look without sacrificing capacity. In fact, our 23-cubic-foot side-by-sides offer the same amount of shelf space as a typical 26-foot standard-depth mode.
• Our standard-depth refrigerators offer 23 and 26 cubic feet of ultra-efficient space.

Make sure both sides of the refrigerator’s drawers are completely on their tracks. As needed, clean the drawers, their runners, and the tracks.

If your ice maker won’t stop making ice, it might be because its wire signal arm is being held down by an item in the freezer, or by ice cubes that have frozen together over the arm. If you see that this is the case, simply release the arm by moving the item or removing any ice cubes. 

If your ice dispenser is blocked or jammed, try these steps:
• Infrequent use of the dispenser can result in ice cubes becoming stuck together and then getting stuck in the dispenser system. Check to see if any ice cubes are blocking the dispenser and remove any that might be.
• Remove the ice container from the freezer, allow it to thaw, and empty the contents. Clean the container, wipe it dry, and then put it back in the proper position. When new ice is made, your ice dispenser should work again.

If no ice is coming out of your refrigerator’s ice dispenser, it might be because there is not enough ice in the ice maker. To make sure your freezer is producing enough ice: 

• Be sure your water supply is connected to the refrigerator (see the Installation Instructions).
• Check that the ice maker is turned on. After ice is made, your dispenser should work.
• Turn your freezer control to a colder setting, so that ice will be made more quickly. After ice is made, your dispenser should work.
• If your refrigerator is equipped with a Fast Ice™ setting or a Fast Freeze™ button, you can turn on either of these features to help make ice more quickly.
• Open the water line valve. Allow enough time for ice to be made; when it has been made, the dispenser should work.
• Be sure that your freezer door is closed. 
Note: If the ice dispenser’s paddle has been held in for four to five minutes, the motor will become overloaded. It will reset in approximately three minutes, after which you can get ice from the dispenser.

If the food you store in a crisper drawer freezes, simply set the refrigerator’s temperature control to a warmer setting, and allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize.

Yes, this is normal. Bubbling or gurgling sounds can occur as the refrigerant, which is used to cool the freezer, circulates throughout the system. 

Electrolux stylish, high-quality refrigerator doors are produced from 201-grade stainless steel.  

Counter-depth refrigerators offer distinctive design and generous interior space, plus innovative storage solutions to keep food fresh and organized. The refrigerator’s cabinet is less deep, allowing the cabinet to be flush with your countertop for a built-in look.

Standard-depth refrigerators feature plenty of space for stocking up, with a stylish look both inside and out. They may be a few inches deeper than your cabinets and countertop, extending a bit further into your kitchen space than your counter does.

To register your refrigerator, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail.

• You will need to know its model and serial number, which can be found on the serial plate, located on the right hand side of the refrigerator. This information can also be found on your product registration card.
• You will also need to know the date of product purchase shown on your receipt.

Tip: It’s always a good idea to record your refrigerator’s model number, serial number, and the date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt.

If you have cast-iron grates, follow these steps:
• Wash the grates in the dishwasher.
• Coat the grates with a thin layer of cooking oil.
• Bake the grates in the oven on 350˚F for 10 minutes.

If you have porcelain-coated grates, simply place them in the dishwasher and coat any unfinished areas with a thin layer of cooking oil after washing. 

If your cooktop’s electric burners don’t turn on, check the following:

• The control. Be sure to the use correct control for the element needed and ensure that it is ON.
• The heat setting. Turn the control to a slightly higher setting until the element comes on.
• Power to appliance. Reset the cooktop by turning the breaker off and on again.
• Your electricity source. If a power outage has occurred, you might want to call your local electric company.

If the burners still do not turn on then contact your dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX.

Brown streaks, spots, or other marks are most likely caused by food boiling over and then being cooked onto your oven’s surface. You can remove them by carefully using a razor blade to scrape them off.  

Tip: Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleanser to the surface and buff using a nonabrasive cloth or pad. This will make future cleanup of food easier, and the special cooktop cleansing cream leaves a protective finish that helps prevent scratches.

Discoloration that has a metallic sheen can be caused by mineral deposits from water and food. You can help prevent it by using cookware with a clean and dry bottom surface, and you can remove it with a ceramic/glass cooktop cleaning cream. 

If you see an "E" and two digits, it means that the cooktop has detected a condition it needs to check. To help correct this, try the following recommendations:
• Rest the cooktop's main controls by turning the power to your cooktop off, and then back on,
• Be sure that the time of day is set. The time must be set in order for the cooktop to operate.

If you continue to see the "E," record the number and turn the power supply back off. Then contact your dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX.

For your safety, there are a few conditions that will cause your cooktop to automatically turn off, including:

• Fluids have spilled onto the cooktop, or an object is lying on its control area. Simply clean any spills or remove any objects, then turn your cooktop back on.
• Your cooktop has been in use continuously for over 12 hours. Sensing this extended use will cause the cooktop to turn off.

With faster, more responsive heating, more energy-efficient cooking and easier cleaning, induction takes cooking to a whole new level. It combines the benefits of gas and electric cooktops – merging with the power of gas with the easy cleanup of electric.

Using electromagnetic energy, heat is transferred directly to the cookware, so the cooktop remains cooler. And induction allows for more precise control when cooking – you can instantly adjust the heat to a delicate simmer or bring it to a quick boil.

If your cooktop’s burners don’t light, check the following:
• The control knob. Be sure the control knob is completely turned on. Push it in and turn it to “Light” until the burner ignites, then turn the knob to the desired flame level.
• The burners. Check your burners for clogs. Be sure to turn them off, then use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean their openings.
• Your electricity source. If a power outage has occurred, you might want to call your local electric company.

If the burners still do not light, contact your dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX.

If your burner is only partially lit, it could be because it is clogged. Be sure to turn the burner off, then use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean its openings. A partial flame might also be caused by moisture remaining in the burner after it has been cleaned. If you think this might be the case, lightly fan the flame and allow the burner to operate until the flame is full. 

Designed with a dual-flame, sealed burner, this cooktop offers the widest range of BTU performance in the industry, for the utmost versatility – from a roaring 18,000-BTU boil to a gentle 450-BTU simmer so you can easily go from simmer to boil.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleanser to the surface and buff using a nonabrasive cloth or pad. The special cooktop cleansing cream leaves a protective finish that helps prevent scratches and abrasions. To further prevent scratches on your cooktop surface: Be sure that the cooktop and any pots, pans, or utensils you use are clean. If coarse particles (such as salt) come between your cooktop and utensils, scratches can result. Use pots and pans that have a smooth, flat bottom. Use cleaning materials that are recommended for ceramic/glass cooktops. Any small scratches that occur will not affect your cooktop’s performance, and will become less visible over time.

If your induction cooktop doesn’t seem to be heating, it might be because:
• You need to check the placement of your cookware. If you have an induction cooktop, be sure that the bottom of your pot or pan is large enough for the cooking zone you’re using, and that it is centered on it.
• Your cookware isn’t compatible with an induction cooktop. Our induction cooktop surfaces are compatible with most cookware you might use—if a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pot or pan, it will work on an induction cooktop.
• No cookware was placed on your induction cooktop. If you’re using an induction cooktop, it will not turn on unless a pot or pan has been placed on it.
• The cooktop’s control needs to be adjusted. Make sure the right control is turned on for the element you’re using, and that the setting isn’t too low. (Try turning it to a slightly higher setting until the element turns on.)
• The wiring is not complete. Contact your local dealer, installing agent, or authorized service provider, or contact Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX.

There are many factors that can affect cooking, but you can help ensure best results by following these recommendations:

• Use heavier, high-quality cookware that is suitable for induction cooktops. High-quality cookware that is heavier and has a flat bottom will help your food cook more evenly.
• Use the correct size cookware. The two induction cooking zones available on the cooktop require a specific pan size to be used at each location. The inner ring of each cooking zone is your guide to the correct minimum pan size. The pan bottom must fully cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur. The thicker outer ring each cooking zone is helpful to determine the maximum pan size.
• Adjust the recipe's suggested temperature or cooking time. Your induction cooktop provides exceptional temperature control that allows you to adjust heat with greater accuracy than gas or electric cooktops, especially at lower settings. Perfect for melting chocolate and cooking delicate foods and sauces.

With its remarkable range of configurations and options, the Electrolux cooktop collection offers almost limitless possibilities.
• Full induction cooktops provide powerfully efficient induction elements, offering more responsive cooking, exceptional temperature control, and more energy efficiency.
• Induction hybrid cooktops combine two powerfully efficient induction elements with up to three electric elements to give you ultimate versatility and the latest technology – all within a sophisticated, smooth-top surface.
• Gas cooktops have long been the favorite of home and commercial chefs due to their powerful heat and quick, precise temperature control. The Min-2-Max™ burner goes from 450 to 18,000 BTU – offering the widest performance range in the industry.
• Electric cooktops adapt to any size or type of cookware while offering a sleek, glass ceramic cooking surface.

You might see an orange flame if there are dust particles in your main gas line. Simply turn your burner on for a few minutes, until the flame turns blue.  

Note: In coastal areas, it is normal to regularly see a flame that is slightly orange. This is caused by the salt in the air.

Discoloration that has a metallic sheen can be caused by mineral deposits from water and food. You can help prevent it by using cookware with a clean and dry bottom surface, and you can remove it with a ceramic/glass cooktop cleaning cream.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleanser to the surface and buff using a nonabrasive cloth or pad. The special cooktop cleansing cream leaves a protective finish that helps prevent scratches and abrasions.

To further prevent scratches on your cooktop surface:
• Be sure that the cooktop and any pots, pans, or utensils you use are clean. If coarse particles (such as salt) come between your cooktop and utensils, scratches can result.
• Use pots and pans that have a smooth, flat bottom.
• Use cleaning materials that are recommended for ceramic/glass cooktops.

Any small scratches that occur will not affect your cooktop’s performance, and will become less visible over time.

If your induction cooktop control is flashing an “F,” it could be because:
• The cooktop is not sensing compatible cookware. Our induction cooktops are compatible with most cookware you might use – if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot or pan, it will work.
• Cookware was removed from the cooktop, but the cooktop wasn’t turned off. If this is the case, place the pot or pan back on the cooktop or, if you’re finished cooking, simply turn off the cooktop.
• The cookware isn’t centered over the element.
• The cookware is the incorrect size.

Electrolux induction hybrid cooktops include a combination of electric elements that are compatible with all cookware and induction elements that are compatible with most cookware. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot or pan, it will work with induction cookware.

Cookware made of aluminum, copper, or glass (including Pyrex) is not compatible with an induction cooktop. In addition, some types of stainless steel may not work on an induction surface, or may heat very slowly.

Tip: Do not let your pots or pans boil dry. Doing so may cause permanent damage to a ceramic cooktop (breakage, fusion, or marring that is not covered by your warranty).

To register your cooktop, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail.
• You will need to know your model number and serial number, which can be found on the serial plate located under the cooktop (electric and induction) or under the burner box (gas). This information can also be found on your product registration card.
• You will also need to know the date of product purchase shown on your receipt.
Tip: It’s always a good idea to record your cooktop’s model, serial number, and the date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt.

Electrolux Pedestal Drawers can help you organize your entire laundry room. They’re perfect for storing laundry supplies, extra towels, cleaning supplies and more. They can also ensure your washer is at the optimal height for loading and unloading.

If Pedestal Drawers won’t work in your laundry room, you may also consider using a Stacking Kit.

All Electrolux dryers have reversible doors.  However, not all Electrolux Front Load Washers have reversible doors. You can check your model here or find it in your Installation guide, which is also available on-line.

Products that are Energy Star qualified are equivalent to or better than standard products, with one important difference: they use less energy. To earn the Energy Star rating, products must meet strict energy efficient criteria set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the U.S. Department of Energy. These products can help save money on your electricity bill and protect the environment by reducing harmful emissions from power plants, as well as providing all the features and quality you expect.

When shopping for an appliance, it’s easy to recognize the Energy Star label that identifies qualified products. This label signifies that the product passed stringent standards set by the U.S. Department of Energy. Additionally, manufacturers are required to display their products test results on the Energy Star label. The label will tell you about the product’s efficiency level, including approximately how much energy the appliance uses, its average annual operating cost and how its energy use compares with that of similar products.

Electrolux Dryers come with a variety of dry options. Your Owner’s Manual will give you more information on those applicable to your model.

If your model is one of the LuxCare series (417, 517 or 617) please note that to select or delete an option, press Options; then, while the indicator is blinking, press Set. The indicator will be illuminated when the option has been selected and the light will go off when the option has been deleted.

Electrolux’s Perfect Steam™ technology is a feature that is available on some models. It reduces wrinkles and freshens clothes, and has an “Add Steam” option that can be selected with many cycles.

Download the Owner’s Manual on the Owner Support page for additional information on your product.

Our Instant Refresh cycle can be used to refresh fabrics, remove odors and reduce static by injecting the perfect amount of steam into clothing that has been left in the dryer, stored in closets, drawers or unpacked luggage.  Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for more information on your dryer options.

Fast Dry cycles are recommended to quickly dry small loads. The Fast Dry times vary by model.  Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for more information on your dryer options. 

The ECO option reduces the drying temperature by a few degrees to save energy.  Working in conjunction with the automatic moisture sensors, cycle times will increase slightly but overall energy usage will decrease.

The Wrinkle Release option helps prevent wrinkles and tangling by tumbling the dry load without heat for 5 out of every 10 minutes. The cycle of 5 minutes on and 5 minutes off is repeated for a total of 45 minutes.

The Extended Tumble option should be selected if you cannot remove the dried load promptly at the end of the cycle.  It will result in the load tumbling continuously without heat for an additional 30 minutes.  

You can select Wrinkle Release and Extended Tumble together to increase the amount of time the load will tumble without heat for up to 75 minutes. 

A Ventless or Condensation Dryer is an eco-friendly unit that does not recycle heat from your home. It’s smaller than a traditional dryer and easy to install.

The condensation process requires access to cool air. Therefore, the laundry room or closet door where the unit is located should be kept open to allow for proper air circulation.

This type of dryer may have extended drying times compared to a traditional front load dryer.

The water container should be emptied after every load – unless the draining kit has been installed. The condenser also requires periodic cleaning. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for detailed care and cleaning instructions.

It’s important to clean the lint screen / filter before or after drying each load of laundry. Excessive lint buildup can block the flow of air and hinder the drying performance.

It’s also a good idea to regularly inspect and clean the entire outdoor exhaust and venting. You can also wash the lint screen in warm, soapy water to remove any residue, then dry it thoroughly before replacing.

If your dryer does not start, it might be due to one of the following reasons:

• Some models have a Power button that must be pressed before you select the dry cycle and options.
• Once you have selected the dry cycle and options, don’t forget to press Start.
• Some models have touch screens (similar to Smart Phones) which means you must use your fingertip to make selections on the control panel.
• Make sure you have not unintentionally activated the Delay Start option.
• The dryer door is open. The door must be completely closed for the dryer to run.
• The power cord may not be plugged in or the connection may be loose. Check to be sure the plug fits tightly into the wall outlet. NOTE:  Do not use an extension cord.
• A fuse is blown in your home or a circuit breaker is tripped. If this is the case, reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse (but do not increase the fuse capacity).  If you have an overloaded circuit, contact a qualified electrician to correct it.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

If you have a Perfect Steam™ Dryer, its advanced technology will remove wrinkles and freshen clothes. You can also select the "Add Steam” option with many cycles.  Depending on your model, you may want to use the “Wrinkle Release” or “Extended Tumble” options.

In general, for best results when drying your clothes, follow these simple steps:

• Do not overload your dryer. Clothes need room to tumble freely.
• Select the appropriate cycle setting and temperature based on your fabric care labels.
• Select More Dry for loads that need more time, and Less Dry if you want the load to be damp dry for ironing.
• Remove items from the dryer when the cycle is done. As soon as the cycle is complete, hang or fold your items. To remove wrinkles from clean, dry clothes, select “Instant Refresh” cycle (available on some models) or tumble them on low heat for 10 or 15 minutes.
• When using fabric softener / dryer sheets, please refer to your Owner’s Manual (use not recommended with steam options).

Belt buckles or other metal fasteners on items being dried may cause rattling or clanking sounds. You can fasten these items or turn garments inside out to reduce the sounds. 

Rattling or clanking sounds may also be caused by foreign objects (such as coins) in the drum. If you think this is the issue, stop the dryer and check for any objects in the drum.  If none are present and the sounds continue, we recommend running an empty load to see if the noise continues. This will allow you to determine if the noise is coming from the unit or an article that was being dried.  If the noise is still present during the empty load, please contact us.

The normal operating sounds of a dryer are listed in your Owner’s Manual and include:

• Water Value (steam models only)
• Suspension rollers
• Air Flow System
• Gas Value (gas models only)
• Gas Burner (gas models only)

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

If your dryer seems to be taking too long to dry a load, try the following:

If your dryer seems to be taking too long to dry a load, try the following:

• Clean the Lint screen / Filter after every use. You can also wash the lint screen in warm, soapy water to remove any residue, then dry it thoroughly before replacing.
• Check the cycle or temperature setting. Some cycles or options require more time to dry such as Low Heat, More Dry or Eco. 
• Do not dry a load that’s too big or too small.  If your dryer is over-loaded, it will take longer to dry your clothes. Items need room to tumble freely in order to dry well, and you also need enough items in the drum for proper tumbling.
• Sort the items you are drying. Dry items of similar fabric and weight in the same load.
• Take humidity into account. Drying times will be longer in areas where humidity is high.
• Check the dryer’s moisture sensor bars.  To locate the moisture sensor bars, please refer to your Owner’s Manual. Fabric softener sheets can leave a residue on the moisture sensor bars in the dryer, which can inhibit their ability to accurately sense wet clothes. Remove the residue by wiping the moisture sensor bars with rubbing alcohol.
• Check for adequate ventilation. If your dryer is installed in a closet or under a counter, it might not be getting the ventilation needed for proper drying.
• Check and clean the exhaust duct. Be sure the exhaust duct is not clogged or blocked. If the problem continues consider having it cleaned by an authorized service provider. Refer to the installation instructions for appropriate placement and size of the exhaust duct.
• Be sure you’re connected to a 240-volt circuit.  Refer to the Installation instructions.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

There are two house circuits or fuses in an electric dryer’s circuit. If one of them is tripped or blown, the drum may still turn but the heater will not operate. If this is the case, you’ll need to reset the circuit breaker or replace the house fuse.

You can also check the following:

• Cycle or temperature setting. Please note that some cycles will tumble with low heat.
• Outlet wiring. Have a qualified electrician or installer verify that the voltage supplied is correct (240V).
• Gas supply value (for gas models only). Be sure the gas supply valve to the dryer is open.
• Gas supply tank (for gas models only). If you have a gas dryer and your LP gas tank is empty, refill or replace the tank.  If there has been an interruption in the natural gas supply, call your natural gas company.
• Air supply around a gas dryer. The dryer needs space around it for proper ventilation to support the gas burner. Do not stack or place laundry or rugs against the front or back of the dryer.

If you are unable to resolve an issue or need more information, please contact us.

Electrolux ovens have Luxury-Glide® oven racks, which are designed to move effortlessly. To keep your oven racks gliding smoothly when you’re removing or inserting them, we recommend lightly applying cooking oil along their outer edges.

Electrolux ovens offer Perfect Convect3®, which features a third convection element for consistently even results, up to 30% faster cooking times, and even more baking options.

Convection cooking is cooking with the added advantage of airflow circulation, which allows for a more even distribution of heat. By using the forced flow of hot air, convection cooking produces the following benefits:
• Cooking time is approximately 25 – 30% faster than in conventional ovens, saving energy.
• The more even distribution of heat results in food that is more evenly baked.
• Generally, less heat is required than with a conventional oven – a convection oven usually cooks at 25°F below a conventional oven's required temperature. So simply program your oven according to your recipe’s temperature requirements and press “Convection Conversion,” and the oven will automatically convert the temperature.

Electrolux wall ovens offer a wide variety of cooking and baking options, bringing stylish design to your kitchen. Their ingenious and intuitive features – designed to make cooking more luxurious – include Wave-Touch® controls, smooth Luxury-Glide® racks, Luxury-Design™ lighting, and Luxury-Hold™ doors. 

Additionally, our wall ovens offer convection cooking modes to let you quickly and evenly cook food to perfection, as well as multistage cooking options for even more versatility and convenience.

If your oven does not appear to be level, check your kitchen cabinet alignment. The position of your cabinets may make your oven appliance appear to not be level. Be sure your cabinets are square, and that they leave sufficient room for appliance clearance.

These codes mean that the oven’s electronic control has detected a condition it needs to check. When you see a code, follow these steps:

• Press “Stop/Clear” to clear the display and stop the beeping.
• Reprogram the oven.
• If the code still displays, turn off the power to the oven at your breaker box and wait five minutes before turning it back on.

Electrolux ovens offer thoughtful design, both inside and out. Luxury-Glide® oven racks with a ball-bearing system are so smooth, they extend effortlessly.

To register your wall oven, simply call Electrolux at 1-877-4 ELECTROLUX, visit electroluxappliances.com, or drop your product registration card in the mail.You will need to know your model number and serial number, which can be found on the serial plate located along the interior side trim of the oven and is visible when the door is opened. This information can also be found on your product registration card.You will also need to know the date of product purchase shown on your receipt.Tip: It’s always a good idea to record your wall oven’s model, serial number, and date of purchase, as well as to save your receipt.

Check the brushroll belt periodically for signs of wear. Typically, it should be replaced every six months. Refer to your Owner’s Guide for detailed replacement instructions.

If your vacuum has a detachable hose, make sure it’s firmly connected. Make sure the hose is emptying the dirt into the bag or the dust cup. On bagged models, the hose needs to protrude into the bag. If these connections look right, then check the hose for a clog or obstruction.

You’ll find the model number on a metallic silver-colored rating plate, which is usually located on the back or bottom of your vacuum.

Generally, you should change your vacuum bag once a month and empty your dust cup when it is two-thirds full. We recommend more frequent bag changes if your home is large, if you have children and/or pets or if there is heavy foot traffic in your home. You should also change the bag more than once a month if you’re cleaning fine dust and debris, since both reduce the filtration through the bag. Change the bag immediately if the dirt is above the line printed on the bag. A bag change indicator is activated on some Electrolux models when the bag is full.

It varies, depending on your model's filtration type. Micron Filtration is not a separate filter, but is part of the bag itself. So, if you change bags monthly and use Electrolux brand bags, your filtration should remain powerful. True HEPA filters should be replaced every six months to maintain peak filtration. The small fabric filters that cover the back of the bagless cassette and the entrance into the casing beneath the cassette can be rinsed out, dried thoroughly and put back into place. They should be replaced after a year. Washable HEPA filters should be cleaned out approximately every eight weeks. Always make sure that washable filters are completely dry before you put them back in the vacuum.

Fill out and mail in the registration form in the Owner's Guide that came with your vacuum cleaner. Or, use our convenient online registration form.

Look for the metallic silver-colored rating plate on the back or bottom of your Electrolux vacuum. Your model number is comprised of four digits and two letters.

Belts are made of rubber and will stretch and wear out. The belt runs the brush roll thousands of revolutions per minute, so the tighter or newer the belt, the better the vacuum performs.

A broken fan blade, a broken belt or an obstruction in the brush roll are the most common reasons for increased noise.

Our Store Locator will help you find the Electrolux dealer nearest you. Search both retail and online stores, as the selection varies. Call ahead before going to a retail store to make sure your particular model is in stock. We do also sell various models directly on our website.
