•Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cau- se increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.

•Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufac- turer.

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

•Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low tempe- ratures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.

•Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer.

•All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamina- tion of other frozen goods occurs.

Important! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food.

1.Place the packed food in the drawers. Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer. Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, otherwise the frozen food could begin to defrost.

2.When freezing fresh food, depress the ambient temperature switch

(A) 12 hours before loading the food without modifying the thermostat setting. The pilot light will come on. At the end of the freezing process, do not forget to depress again the ambient switch in order to avoid an increase of the power consumption.

3.Place frozen foods in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible. Riders are supplied for placing on drawers. To mark the contents of the individual drawers, press the index tab over the corresponding symbol (see "Frozen Food Symbols/Freezer Calendar" section). This will give you a better overview of the contents, avoid extended door opening and therefore save electricity.

4.If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers and

baskets from appliance and place food on cooling shelves. Pay care-

ful attention not to exceed load limit stated on the side of the upper section
