Fast Freeze Button -

Freezing Fresh Food

CONTROLS

The bottom compartment drawer, should be used to freeze fresh food. Transfer already frozen food to one of the upper compartment drawers.

During the fast freeze process the chiller bleed restrictor (refer to page 12 for illustration) should be inserted into the chiller bleed opening. This will prevent the chiller drawer and salad bins from going below their ideal storage temperatures. At the end of the fast freeze process, remove the restrictor and keep until required.

-Before loading 2kg or more of fresh food, select fast freeze for the required pre-freeze time (see chart below).

-If freezing up to 2kg of fresh food just select fast freeze when loading.

Once the fresh food is loaded leave fast freeze on for 24 hours to freeze the food as quickly as

possible.

 

Maximum freezing capacity in 24hrs:

10kg

Note: Don’t forget to turn fast freeze off after 24 hours from the introduction of fresh food to be frozen.

However, fast freeze will turn off automatically after 48 hours if you forget.
