0All 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.
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could
freeze to the food.
0Place the packed food in the drawers. Unfrozen food must not touch
items already frozen, otherwise the frozen food could begin to defrost.
Tips:
•The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods:
–freezer bags and polyethylene wraps;
–plastic containers 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 plastic containers for frozen goods to the brim with liquid
or paste–like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.
0Once the required storage temperature has been reached, press the fast
freeze button again. The yellow light goes out.
Frozen Storage
Important! Wait until the necessary storage temperature of –18 °C has
been reached before storing food already frozen.
•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.
2Place 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 sym-
bol (see "Storage Goods Symbols/Freezing Calendar" section). This will
give you a better overview of the contents, avoid extended door ope-
ning and therefore save electricity.
