Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-
frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the FROSTMATIC function at least 24 hours before placing the
food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the
rating
plate
6)
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has
been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
Freezing Calendar
The symbols show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods.
Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the
quality of the foods and treating before freezing.
Opening and closing the lid
As the lid is equipped with a tightly closing seal, it is not easy to reopen it shortly after
closing (due to the vacuum formed inside).
Wait a few minutes before reopening the appliance. The vacuum valve will help you to open
the lid.
WARNING!
Never pull the handle with immense force.
Low frost System
The appliance is equipped with Low frost System (you can see a valve inside the freezer in
the backside) what reduces ice-build-up in the chest freezer by up to 80 percent. That means
for you up to 5 years without defrosting.
