Correct use of the appliance, appropriate packaging, maintaining
the right temperature, and observing the food hygiene standards
has a decisive impact on the quality of fresh food freezing or
storage of frozen food.
Use only food suitable for freezing, i.e. food which tolerates low
temperatures well.
• Use premium quality food.
• Only freeze fruit and vegetables that are absolutely fresh.
• Use suitable packaging and pack the food correctly.
• The packaging should be air and water tight as this would
cause the food to dry out and loose vitamins.
• Films and bags should be soft and
fl
exible to
fi
t the food being
stored.
• Freezing boxes and containers must seal well.
• It is of vital importance that food is frozen as quickly as
possible. Therefore, particular packages should not be
too large and food should be cooled or refrigerated before
freezing.
• Activate the super freeze function 24 hours before freezing
fresh food:
-
Press
the
E
key (signal light
F
will be on,
SF
appears on
the display).
- Place the food into the freezer.
Before placing the food in the appliance, cool it to room
temperature.
• Maximum amount of fresh food that may be inserted at once is
speci
fi
ed on the appliance rating plate.
• If the amount of food to be frozen exceeds the indicated
amount, the quality of freezing will be inferior; in addition, the
quality of the food already frozen will deteriorate.
• If you need to freeze a large amount of food, repeat the
freezing process several times.
• When freezing smaller amounts of food (1-2 kilograms),
activating the super freeze function is not required.
• The function will be deactivated after approximately two days.
It can be deactivated manually by pressing the
E
key.
Storage time for frozen food depends on the composition of the
food, quality, expiration date, etc. High fat content in particular
will shorten the maximum storage time. Thus, lean meat may
be stored in the freezer for up to 12 months, while fatty meat
will only keep 4 to 6 months. Store the food in tightly sealed
containers or appropriate packaging.
