accordingly.
Positions towards the thicker part of the sign mean
a lower temperature in the appliance (cooler).
Settings towards the thinner part of the marking
mean a higher temperature (warmer).
Signal light
D
will flash when the temperature in
the freezer rises to a level that is too high, and
goes off when the temperature drops back to a
level that no longer represents food spoilage
hazard (see section »Troubleshooting«).
Freezing and storing frozen food
Freezing process
Maximum quantity of fresh food that can be
introduced into the appliance at a time is
indicated on the label with basic information
on the appliance. If this quantity is exceeded,
freezing quality will deteriorate, as will the
quality of the already frozen food.
•

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.
