Freezing and storing frozen food

Symptom Possible Cause Remedy

You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.

• The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18 °C or colder

before freezing food.

• Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The free-

zing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be frozen

within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food several days in a

row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of that on the

rating plate. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen

right through to the core as quickly as possible.

• Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cause

increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.

• Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufacturer.

• 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 temperatures.

There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flamma-

ble materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill car-

tridges 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 free-

zer.

• 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 contamination of

other frozen goods occurs.

If, after carrying out the necessary checks there is still a fault with your appliance please contact your local AEG Service Force Centre.

In guarantee customers should ensure that the suggested checks have been made as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mecha- nical or electrical breakdown.

Please note that proof of purchase is required for any in-guarantee service calls.

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