Freezing

Prepare the various foods properly and then freeze them always in the freezing compartment.

The quick freeze function ("FROSTMATIC") is used to achieve the quick freezing of fresh food and to prevent the already frozen goods from undesirable warming up.

For using the quick freeze function, press the quick freeze on/off switch (J) for 2-3 seconds; in the case of small and great food volumes you should do it approx. 4 and 24 hours, respectively, before you want to freeze the fresh food.

The yellow indicator (H) will light up and the compressor will operate continuously until the product reaches the freezing temperature.

Once the food is completely frozen (it may take up to 24 hours) you can manually switch off the quick freeze function by pressing the switch (J) for 2-3 seconds. If not switched off manually, the quick freeze function will be automatically switched off 48 hours later. The yellow indicator (H) will also go out.

Freezing and storage of frozen foods

As freezing with "No-Frost" technology is quicker, the foods frozen this way will preserve their original form, nutritional value and taste even after thawing. Place the foods to be frozen in the second part of the product.

For the best operation of the product, make sure that the frozen foods will not touch the ventilator cover or the ventilator mounted on the backside of the product.

For the best results it is recommended to distribute the frozen foods evenly in the boxes.

If you make small portions of the foods, the freezing process will take less time and subsequent thawing will be possible in small portions also.

In order to avoid freezing burns, do not touch ice-creams immediately after they have been taken out from the freezer.

It is recommended to state the freezing date on the package so that later you can check the storage duration. The time of transportation from the seller to the consumer must be as short as possible.

Thawing

Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in a fridge or at room temperature, depending on the time available. Small food items may even be cooked from frozen, in this case cooking will take longer.

Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should either be eaten as soon as possible, or thrown away.Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen.

Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.

How to make ice cubes

Fill the supplied ice cube tray ¾ full with water and place in the freezer compartment. Turning up the thermostat control will speed up the freezing process, but remember to turn the thermostat control back to its original position.

To release the ice cubes, twist the tray along its length.

Do not use sharp or pointed items to remove a frozen ice cube tray from the freezer compartment.
