Freezing and storing frozen food

You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.

Important!

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 freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be frozen within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food sever- al 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 pre- served when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as pos- sible.

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 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 temper- atures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable materials such as spray cans, fire extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the 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.

Press the fast freeze switch for freezing of fresh food. The amber light illuminates.

To utilise the maximum rated freezing capacity, switch on the fast freeze switch 24 hours before freezing is due to start (the amber light illuminates). For smaller amounts the fast freeze switch should be switched on 4 - 6 hours in advance.

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.

Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could stick to the food and cause skin abrasions.
