4-6. After 24 hours load the appliance with fresh food packages.

After loading, wait for another 24 hours and switch off the switch and turn the thermostat knob to required position (see "Temperature selection").

The switch is ON when the marking I or colour marking is visible, and OFF when the marking 0 is visible or colour marking is not visible (depending on model).

The next time you want to freeze fresh foods, repeat the freezing procedure and be careful that packages with fresh foods do not touch frozen packages.

For freezing smaller amount of foods (up to 1 kg) there is no need to change the thermostat setting (see Temperature Selection).

Storing Frozen Foods

Packages of frozen foods are stored in the basket. If you remove the baskets, you can store frozen packages directly on the cooling shelves.

Commercially Frozen Foods

The storage time and the recommended temperature for storing commercially frozen foods are indicated on the packaging. For storing and using consider the manufacturer's instruction. When shopping, be careful and choose only adequately packed foods provided with complete data and stored in freezers where the temperature is not higher than -18°C. Do not buy packages of food covered with frost layer. This indicates that the package was thawed before at least once. Be careful that packages don't start to thaw, as the temperature raise reduces the quality of foods.
