stacked directly on the shelves and in the bottom

Removing the fittings
Pull out the frozen food container all the way, lift at
the front and remove.
Freezer compartment
Use the freezer compartment
▯
To store deep-frozen food.

To freeze food.
Note
Ensure that the freezer compartment door has been
closed properly. If the door is open, the frozen food
will thaw. The freezer compartment will become
covered in thick ice. Also: waste of energy due to high
power consumption!

Freezing and storing food
Purchasing frozen food
▯
Packaging must not be damaged.
▯
Use by the “use by” date.

Temperature in the supermarket freezer must be
-18 °C or lower.

If possible, transport deep-frozen food in an
insulated bag and place quickly in the freezer
compartment.
Note when loading products

Preferably freeze large quantities of food
in the lower frozen food containers where food
freezes particularly quickly and therefore also
gently.

Place the food over the whole area of the frozen
food containers.

contact with the food which is to be frozen. If
required, move the frozen food to the frozen food

Storing frozen food
Insert frozen food container all the way to ensure
unrestricted air circulation.
