Use

Freezer

The appliance is a four-star freezer approved for freezing and storing frozen items of food. With the exception of no- frost models, the freezer is equipped with a practical tray for freezing loose berries, ice cubes, etc.

Freezing

To keep food at its best, items must be frozen to -18°C as quickly as possible.

When the Super Freeze button is pressed, the compressor runs continuously, thus reducing the temperature as far as possible. If items weighing 3 kg or more are to be frozen, the Super Freeze button should be activated about 24 hours in advance.

There is no need to use Super Freeze when pre-frozen items are placed in the freezer or when small, single items are involved.

The control lamp lights yellow as long as the Super Freeze function is active. Remember to switch the Super Freeze function off again approx. 24 hours after placing items in the freezer. Otherwise, the appliance will use more electricity than necessary.

Only freeze fresh high-quality products. Meat, poultry, fish, vegetables, fruit, dairy products and ready-made meals are suitable for freezing. Items with a high water content, e.g. lettuce, radishes, grapes, apples, pears and cucumbers, are not suitable for freezing.

Pack items to be frozen in airtight containers, freezer bags or similar. Freeze items in suitable portions. Do not freeze vegetables in portions larger than 2.5 kg. Do not freeze meat in portions larger than 2.5 kg. Keep packages dry to prevent them

from freezing together. To ensure rapid freezing, make sure, as far as possible, that items placed in the freezer are not touching. Ensure that there is as little air in the packages as possible to prevent the surfaces of the items from drying out.

Always remember to write the date, content and quantity on the packages before placing them in the appliance. It is a good idea to group items within the freezer. Keep vegetables in one drawer, meat in another, and so on.

Thawing

Frozen vegetables and fruit require no thawing before use and can be immersed in boiling water direct from the freezer.

To thaw meat, it is advisable to take it out of the freezer the day before it is to be used and place it in a refrigerator to defrost. This ensures the best hygiene and maintains meat quality as much as possible.

Refreezing

If purchased items of frozen food thaw before reaching home, they must not be refrozen but should be consumed within 24 hours or cooked immediately and then frozen.

Frozen items that have been placed in a refrigerator for thawing may be refrozen without risk if they have only just thawed.

Note:

Glass bottles or cans containing carbonated (fizzy) drinks must never be placed in the freezer as they may explode.
