Do not freeze too much food at the
same time. The freezing capacity of
the unit is indicated in the
specifications section.
Check that the cabinet is operating
and keeps the set temperature one
day after switching it on for the first
time. Only after then should the freezer
be used to freeze fresh foodstuff.
Suitable storage periods
Food purchased in frozen condition:
Follow the advice on the maximum
storage period indicated on the
packaging.
Fresh food frozen at home:
Fatty and salty food should not be kept
frozen for more than three months.
Cooked food and low-fat food may be
kept up to about six months. Lean
food and berries can be kept for
approximately one year.
Thawing
It is best to thaw foods in refrigerator.
Place the foodstuff on a plate with a
raised edge to prevent liquids from
running out. Easily thawed foods can
be placed in room temperature or in
cold water. When using a microwave
oven to thaw foodstuff, follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Cabinet interior
Freezer drawers
The freezer drawers make that it easy
to quickly and easily find the food
package you want. In order to obtain
maximum space, all fittings except the
top door and the lower box can be
removed and filled with groceries up to
the indicated loading limit.
Ice cubes
Fill the ice tray to max. 3/4 since water
expands as it freezes. Release the ice
cubes by twisting the ice tray.
If ice cubes are kept for a long time,
they will dry out and the taste is
affected. Thus, throw away old ice
cubes and prepare new ones when
needed.
Cold accumulator
The cold accumulator will keep the
food cold for longer after a power
failure. The cold accumulator will be
most effective when placed on the top
shelf. When freezing large amounts of
food/provisions, the accumulator
moves to on top of the food.
