Notes on freezing and storage

•Always store identical food items together.

•Pack food which you are freezing yourself in quantities appropriate to your household. To ensure that the food freezes right through, the following quantities should not be exceeded per package: fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg, meat: up to 2.5 kg.

•Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or reuseable plastic, metal or aluminium containers.

•Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to come into contact with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry in order to avoid them sticking together.

•Always write the date and contents on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time for the food.

•Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain carbonated drinks as they might burst.

•Only take out as much food as is immediately required for thawing. Use food which has been thawed in prepared meals as quickly as possible.

Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways:

– in a fan oven,

– in a microwave oven,

– at room temperature,

– in the refrigerator: the cold given off by the frozen food is used for cooling.

Freezing

Fresh food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as possible. Frozen food can also be given a cold boost.This is provided by the SuperFrost facility.

The maximum amount of food (in

kg) which can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the type plate ("Freez-

ing capacity"). This amount varies according to the model and climate rating.

Freezing with SuperFrost

Touch the SuperFrost icon	briefly so that the	LED comes
on.

• For small amounts of frozen food switch on SuperFrost 6 hours beforehand. For the maximum amount (see freezing capacity on the type plate) you will need to switch it on 24 hours beforehand.

• Then place the fresh food inside the freezer.

- The SuperFrost function switches off automatically.Depending on the quantity of food placed in the freezer, this will normally be between 30 and max. 65 hours. The freezing process is now complete, the SuperFrost LED will go out.

You should not switch on the SuperFrost func­tion: - when placing frozen food in the freezer;

- when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily.

Safety instructions and warnings

•The ice maker is designed exclusively to make ice cubes in quanti- ties required by a household and may only be operated with water suitable for this purpose.

•All repairs and work on the ice maker may only be carried out by customer service personnel or other trained personnel.

•The first three batches of ice must not be consumed or used. This applies both to using the appliance for the first time and also to using it after it has not been used for a lengthy period of time. This ensures that the water supply is purged.

•The manufacturer cannot accept liability for damage caused by a faulty connection to the mains water supply.

•The ice maker will only work if the combined refrigerator-freezer is connected to the electricity supply. It will only make ice cubes if the freezer compartment is operating.

•Ensure that the drawer is fully closed, as the ice maker can oth- erwise not produce ice cubes.
