When freezing smaller quantities of food
(1-2 kilograms), activating the super freeze
function is not required.
•
After 24 hours, the food can be moved to other
parts of the freezer and the freezing process can
be repeated as required:
−
rotate the
A
button back to the middle
position and than after 5 seconds to the
position
(signal light
B
will light up).
•
After the end of the freezing process, rotate the
A
dial back to the desired setting, even if the
B
signal light is not on (this means that sufficiently
low temperature has already been reached.
•
If the freezer boost is not deactivated manually, it
will be automatically switched off after
approximately 2 days. Then the temperature of
the freezer compartment returns to the most
recently set value (knob position remains at
).
Important warnings on freezing fresh food
•
The freezer should only be used for freezing
food that is appropriate for freezing. The food
should always be fresh and of adequate quality.
•
Choose an appropriate packaging for the
food and package it correctly.
•
The packaging should be airtight and
watertight to prevent loss of humidity or
vitamins from the food.
•
Indicate the type of food, quantity, and
freezing date on each food package.
•
It is important that the food is frozen as
quickly as possible; therefore, smaller
packages should be preferred. Before
freezing, the food should be cooled.
Storing Frozen Foods
Packages of frozen foods are stored in baskets.
If you remove the baskets, you can store frozen
packages directly on the cooling shelves.
To allow the required circulation of cool air, do
not place any food above the indicated line –
see image below (only with some models).
Storing Commercially Frozen Foods
The storage time and recommended temperature
for storing commercially frozen foods is indicated
on the packaging.
For storing and use consider manufacturer's
instruction.
When shopping, be careful and choose only
packages of foods which are adequately packed
and provided with complete data and stored in
freezers where the temperature is not higher than
-18°C.
Do not buy packages of food wrapped with frost.
This indicates that the package was thawed before
at least once.
Take care that packages don't start to thaw.
Temperature rise shortens the storage time of
commercially frozen foods.
