If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:

0Turn the temperature regulator to position "0". The green pilot light goes out.

0Unplug or switch off at the mains supply.

0Defrost freezer compartment and clean thoroughly (see section: "Maintenance and Cleaning").

0Leave door open after defrosting to avoid accumulation of odours.

Freezing

Except for the bottom drawer, which serves for storage purposes, all compartments and drawers are suited for freezing.

Important!

The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18 °C or col- der 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 several days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of that on the rating plate.

Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cause increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.

Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.

0When freezing maximum capacity press the fast freeze button 24 hours prior to freezing, or 4 to 6 hours for smaller quantities. Yellow indicator light illuminates.

3The fast freeze button need not be pressed for freezing of small quanti- ties of up to 3 kg.

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.
