Frozen Storage

Frozen Storage

Attention! Before filling the freezer for the first time with previously frozen goods, the necessary storage temperature of -18 °C must have been attained.

Load freezer only with packaged frozen goods, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods can occur.

Please observe maximum storage times and expiry dates of frozen goods.

Store ice cream and fatty foods in the lower area of the freezer (near to the bottom).

Defrosting

Whilst in operation and when the lid is opened, the moisture inside the freezer forms hoar frost. Remove this hoar frost from time to time with a soft plastic scraper, e.g. a spatula. Do not under any circumstances use hard or pointed objects for this purpose.

Defrost the freezer when the layer of hoar frost has become 4 mm thick. For models with a no-frost system at least once a year.

Models with a low frost system do not need to be defrosted as often, as in the case of these appliances ice and hoar frost take longer to build up in the freezer. The low frost system is maintenance free throughout the entire service life of the appliance.

A convenient time for defrosting is any time when the appliance is empty, or only minimally loaded.

Defrosting Warning!

Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the exception of those recommended in these operating instructions.

Do not use defrosting sprays, because they may be health endangering and/or contain substances damaging to plastics.

Caution! Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands Hands can freeze to the goods.

Remove frozen goods, pack them in several layers of newspaper, cover them and store them in a cool place, e.g. in a refrigerator.
