Storing food
The freezer allows you to store frozen food at a temperature of -18°C or below for several months, to
produce ice cubes and to freeze fresh good. Due to external influences such as room temperature, place-
ments, frequency of opening the door and the amount of food the temperature in the freezer can be influ-
enced.

•
24 hours before freezing we recommend turning the temperature control to the highest power level and to
keep this setting even after freezing for a few hours. The appliance is not compromised if the setting will
not revert to a normal operating temperature after the freezing process, but for economic reasons you
should possibly avoid it.
•
Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to the core. Therefore during freezing operation, the tem-
perature of fresh food should be lowered as fast as possible in order to keep formation of ice crystals as lit-
tle as possible and not to damage the food structure.
•
Frozen food should be kept in contact with the bottom of the compartment.
•
Keep a space between the individual items, so that the cold air can circulate.

Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in a 4-star-freezer compartment in accordance with the
manufacturer’s data. Make sure the food items do not defrost after purchase and to store them as fast as
possible in the freezer.
•
It is possible to store food for longer periods of time, up to three months. This period might vary, so ob-
serve the storage information on the packaging of the merchandise.

Safety precautions
•
Do not store bottles or cans. These can break when the contents freeze – or even explode, if they contain
carbonated drinks.
•
Once products have been defrosted halfway or completely, they should be consumed as soon as possible
and should not be frozen again, except they have been processed to a ready meal.
•
Do not open the door in case of power failure. If the failure does not take longer than 10 hours, the food will
not be affected.
•
Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not allow children to eat ice cream directly from the freezer. The cold
can cause injuries in the oral cavity.
•
Touching metal parts inside the appliance can cause symptoms similar to burns if the skin is very sensitive.
•
Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.

Because of NoFrost System the freezer keeps free from ice inside. A defrosting procedure isn´t necessary.
