To obtain the best performance from your refrigerator/freezer:

Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids.

Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your freezer as short as possible.

Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate around each item.

Freezing

Except for the bottom drawer, which serves only for storage purposes, all compartments and drawers in the freezer compartment are suitable for freezing fresh food.

Warning!

Before foods are frozen, the actual temperature in the freezer compartment must be -18 °C or colder.

Please observe indicated freezing capacity on the rating plate. The freezing capacity represents the maximum amount of fresh goods that can be frozen within 24 hours. If you freeze goods on several days, one after the other, freeze amounts equal to 2/3 to 3/4 of the capacity indicated on the rating plate.

When freezing large amounts of frozen food, place the frozen freezer block at the front of the middle drawer in the freezer section on the already frozen food.

Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.

01. Place the packaged frozen foodstuffs in the bottom drawer. Pack together as tightly as possible, to prevent loss of coldness and place the freezer block on top.

Take care: Do not touch frozen foods with wet hands. Your hands could freeze onto them.

2.Before freezing, wrap up all foodstuffs to be frozen in airtight packaging, so that they do not dry out, do not lose their taste and there can be no transfer of taste to other frozen foods. Place the food to be frozen in the top drawer(s). Non-frozen goods must not touch already frozen goods, as otherwise the frozen goods can defrost.

3 When using the max. freezer capacity, set the operating mode FROSTMATIC for 24 hours before freezing – with smaller amounts 4 to 6 hours are sufficient.

The FROSTMATIC mode need not to be set for freezing of small quantities of up to 3 kg.
