Preparation of Ice Cubes
1.
Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer com-
partment and leave to freeze.
2.
To loosen the frozen cubes, either twist the ice cube tray or hold it under
running water for a few seconds.
Important!
Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer com-
partment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scraper supplied.
Frozen Food Symbols/Freezing Calendar
• The symbols on the drawers 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 pre-treating before
freezing. The lower value applies to
foods with high fat content.
• By attaching the included index-tabs to the drawers, they can be marked
according to which type of foods the individual compartments contain.
Defrosting
The freezer will become progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the thickness
of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to swit-
ch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
However when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete
defrosting should be carried out as follows:
