Freezing fresh food

In any 24 hour period you can freeze up to 13 kg of fresh food.

When you first start the freezer or after a period of non-use, press the fast freeze switch 12 hours before you want to freeze your food (the yellow light

(B) illuminates).

If the freezer is already in operation, the fast-freeze knob should be activated about 2-3 hours before freezing fresh food.

This time can be shortened, depending on the quantity of food to be frozen. After the time has elapsed place the food to be frozen in the upper compartment of the freezer as these are the coldest parts.

In order to freeze the quantity indicated on the rating plate, arrange the food directly in contact with the cooling surfaces. If the food is frozen in the baskets, the maximum quantity that can be frozen is slightly less.

Once the food is completely frozen (which could take up to 24 hours) press again the fast freeze switch; the yellow light (B) goes off.

Distribute the frozen food packages in the other compartments, so that the top compartments can be used for a further freezing operation.

-During the freezing process, ensure that the freezer door remains closed.
