SuperFrostDuraFreeze
Fresh food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as pos- sible. Frozen food can also be given a cold boost. This is provided by the SuperFrost facility and ensures that the nutritional value, appearance and flavour of the food remain intact.
WThe maximum amount of food which can be frozen in
24 hours is shown on the type plate ("Freezing capacity
... kg/24h"), fig. A2, pos. 4. This amount varies accord- ing to the model and climate rating.
Freezing with SuperFrost
WPress the SuperFrost button 4 briefly so that it lights up. The freezer temperature will decrease and the appliance will switch to the lowest temperature.
WFor small amounts of frozen food, it is normally sufficient to switch on SuperFrost 6 hours beforehand. For the maximum amount (see freezing capacity on the type plate) you will need to switch it on 24 hours beforehand.
WThen place the fresh food inside the freezer, preferably in the top drawers.
If freezing the maximum quantity of food, do not use the drawers; instead, place the wrapped food directly on the shelves. Once the food is frozen you can load it into the drawers.
-The SuperFrost function switches off automatically. Depending on the quantity of food placed in the freezer, this will normally be between 30 and max. 65 hours. The freezing process is now complete, the SuperFrost button will go dark and the appliance will continue to operate at the last setting.
Note: When the SuperFrost function is activated the appliance will be running at full capacity, so the refrigeration unit will sound slightly louder for a while.
You should not switch on the SuperFrost function:
-when placing frozen food in the freezer;
-when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily.
DuraFreeze enables you to
-preserve the quality of your food better than in normal mode for the standard length of time
-or double the length of time you store it, keeping the same quality as in standard mode.
Storage with DuraFreeze
The DuraFreeze circuit is a combination of low and even storage temperatures. This reduces drying out, frost for- mation, recrystallisation, freezer burn and weight loss. So
•Switching on DuraFreeze:
Press the DuraFreeze button 4 briefly twice.
-The DF in the temperature display 7 will light up. The temperature displayed will drop slowly to
•Switching off DuraFreeze:
Press the DuraFreeze button 4 briefly twice.
- The DF in the temperature display will go out. The tempe- rature displayed will rise slowly to the normal temperature of

•As a result of the low storage tempera-
tures in DuraFreeze mode, moisture may accumulate on the outside of the appliance if it is in a room with high hu- midity. This is not a fault but a natural physical process. You can prevent this by reducing the humidity in the room or by switching temporarily back to normal mode.
