This manual describes the TOTAL NO FROST refrigerators with ERF2050 DIGITS electronic AEG styling pro-
duced in the Nyíregyháza factory (HUY).
These models feature:
- Total No Frost (no frost freezer, refrigerator no frost)
- free standing
- single-compressor
- electronic control (electronic board ERF2021)
- digit display AEG styling
- air flow regulator (damper)
- LED lighting (optional depending on the model)
They are appliances (CBNF 350, CBNF 390 e CBNF 395) with the following PNCs:
The controls of the appliance are inserted into the work top.
The power control board is ERF2050.
The user interface board is ERF2000 (DIGIT display) with AEG styling.
Since it is a single-compressor, it is not possible to switch off only one of the two compartments.
The temperatures regulation is the following:
• from +8 to +2 °C for the cooler
• from -15 to -24 °C for the freezer
The DIGIT display enables to show the temperatures of the two compartments.
Key:
A = control panel
B = cooler compartment (No Frost)
C = cold module
D = freezer compartment (No Frost)
Unlike in the PARTIAL NO FROST refrigerator, in the TOTAL type the cooler and the freezer communicate
each other, therefore, the battery evaporator cools both compartments.
The cold produced by the battery evaporator in the freezer compartment, is distributed by the fan F placed be-
hind the cold module.
Cooler compartment air flow: the cold air is pushed by the fan into the foamed duct and exits from the air flow
regulator (damper) E located in the rear part of the diffuser-lamp holder.
The air returns in the freezer compartment by means of some foamed ducts entering the air vent grids G.
Freezer compartment air flow: the cold air is pushed into the compartment through the air screen and returns
into the cold module through the front air vent grid.

A. cooler air temperature sensor
The cooler air temperature sensor is used both to control the appliance by means of the air flow regulator
(damper) and to display the cooler compartment temperature.
The sensor A has the foamed cable inside the cabinet, therefore it is not replaceable (for further information
please see Service Bulletin 599374122).
The damper consists of a door and a stepping motor and it is connected to the electric wiring by means of a 4-
pole connector.
The door must be always closed during the operation of the appliance.
The electronic board is placed inside the air diffuser and is connected to the electric wiring through a 3-pole
connector.

DEFROSTING + 8 °C - 5 °C
SAFETY + 40 °C + 30 °C
The fan stops in case of opening of the freezer door or of the cooler door.
To simulate the door closed, use a magnet and put it next to the magnetic sensor
located on the electronic board or push the freezer door button.
The freezer air temperature sensor is used both to control the appliance by means of the fan and the compres-
sor and to display the freezer compartment temperature.
The sensor S has the foamed cable inside the cabinet, therefore it is not replaceable (for further information
please see Service Bulletin 599374122).

B. compressor
The connections box is located in the compressor compartment to connect the various electrical components.
6.1 Normal
In case of first switching on with a freezer compartment temperature higher than 10 °C, the appliance operates
with a test cycle (for the factory) for a maximum time of about 1,5 hours.
In this period do not check the correct functioning of the appliance, since the loads are activated only for internal
check (compressor, fan and defrosting heater).
When the appliance is off then:
• the compressor is off
• the displays are off
Pushing the ON/OFF button, the displays switch on with the following displaying:
• + symbol on cooler display
• flashing digits of the freezer
• freezer compartment temperature alarm (buzzer active)
Push the alarm deactivation button to deactivate the buzzer.
Regulate the temperatures of the compartments so as to set the following values:
• about +5 °C in the cooler
• about -18 °C in the freezer
In NOFROST freezers, the humidity inside the freezer compartment accumulates on the evaporator battery
thanks to the air circulation, thus preventing the formation of frost on food.
During normal operation time the electronic board powers the compressor (3) and the fan (24) circuits.
The fan is activated or deactivated with a 2 minute delay compared to the compressor.
The operation time which corresponds to the interval between the following defrosting lasts about 14 hours with
normal opening of the door (it can last up to 72 hours if the doors are never opened!).
The arrows in the picture indicate the current path.
2. If the internal temperature is lower than the sensor cut-in temperature (CUT-IN), when the power is restored,
the compressor functions in thermostatic conditions and after 5 hours the electronic board activates the de-
frosting procedure (after the compressor cut-out)
The electronic board activates, in any case, the defrosting procedure 5 hours after the first switching on and
after a power failure.

When the sensor operates again normally, the above described conditions terminate.
Characteristics of the NTC sensor:
• The appliance operates with preset cycle when the compressor is powered for 40 minutes and
remains off for 40 minutes alternatively.
• The highest temperature reached in the freezer compartment is displayed for 5 minutes.
Warning: Disconnect the appliance from the electric power before operating with the
appliance.
