The Freezer

Freezing fresh food

The appliance can be used to freeze fresh food in the quantity specified on the rating plate. Freezing fresh food should always be done after proper preparing as follows.

Press the function selection button once or twice as required to obtain super freezing mode (the super freezing mode symbol shown on the display).

Put the previously frozen food to another basket or baskets. Put the fresh food into the lower basket, leaving enough space for airflow.

Run the appliance this way for 24 hours.

To exit from super freezing mode press the function selection button again. Should you not do so, after a while the freezer returns to automatic mode.

Never freeze food in larger quantities than shown in the "Technical data" at the same time, otherwise food may not be thoroughly

frozen.

Do not make ice during freezing preferably, because making ice reduces freezing capacity.

The freezing tray is suitable for freezing smaller fruits (raspberry, strawberry, currant, etc.). Fruits should be put in the tray in thin layers without packaging. After freezing

they can be packed and sorted out then placed into the storing compartments.

Frozen Food Storage

When turning on the freezer for the first time or if the freezer has been out of use for some time, we advise you to run your appliance for at least 2 hours before storing frozen food.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the manufacturer.

Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than is necessary.

You can put frozen products into the basket(s)after freezing has finished. This will enable you to make room in the freezing compartment for other food. Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate foods already stored.

If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the baskets except the lowest one from appliance and place food on the shelves.

Important

Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.

Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer can cause a low temperature skin burn.

In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and the freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food begin to thaw it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and Tips)

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
