Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen
and deep-frezen food, and for freezing
fresh food.
The maximum quantity of foods to freeze
in 24 hours is shown on the serial
number plate.
To freeze the amount of food indicated on
the serial number plate, place the food
directly in touch with the cooling surface
(remove the drawer or basket).
In case the food is frozen inside the
drawers or baskets, the maximum
quantity is slightly reduced.
Place the food to be frozen in the
compartment, as this is the coldest point.

Storing in the freezer
It is practical to replace frozen products
into the basket(s) after freezing has
finished. Doing this you could make room
in the freezing compartment for another
freezing. Intermediate freezing does not
deteriorate foods already stored.
In large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove the baskets except the
lowermost one from appliance and place
food on the cooling surface.
Do not forget to keep to the
torage time given on the packaging
of frozen products if you buy them frozen.
To store home-frozen products see the
storing instructions placed in the door of
the freezer. Symbols signify the various
foods, numbers mean maximum storing
time given in months.
It is safe to store quick-frozen,
frozen foods only if they have not
dissolved even for a short time until
placing them into the freezer. If the deep-
frozen food has already dissolved,
refreezing is not recommended, it has to
be used up as soon as possible
