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 freeze to the food.

Place the packed food in the drawers. Place food to be frozen in the appliance´s two top drawers (1) and (2) equipped with its own refrig- erating unit. Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, oth- erwise the frozen food could begin to defrost. Freezer drawers (3) and

(4)should only be used for storage of frozen food. The lowest draw er has a solid floor and can be used for catching some of the melt- water when the freezer is beeing defrosted. In order to enlarge the appliance´s volume the two centre drawers (2) and (3) can be removed.

Place frozen foods in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible. Index tabs 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.

Once the required storage temperate has been reached, press the fast freeze button again. The yellow light goes out.

Tips:

• The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods:

freezer bags and polyethylene wraps;

special cans for frozen goods;

extra–thick aluminium foil.

The following are suitable for sealing bags and wrap: plastic clips, rubber bands or tape.

Smooth the air out of the bag before sealing; air makes it easier for the frozen food to dry out.

Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly.

Do not fill cans for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or paste–like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.
