Freezing foods / storing frozen foods
WARNING
Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury. Risk of burns caused
by low temperatures.
■
The food and the inside walls of the
freezer unit have a very low temper-
ature. Never touch them with wet
hands. This can cause injury to the
skin. Skin damage can occur even
with dry skin.
■
Do not put ice cubes or ice lollies
straight from the freezer into your
mouth.
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to explosions.
■
Do not store explosive substances or
spray cans with fl ammable propel-
lants inside the appliance, as they
may cause ignitable gas-air mixtures
to explode.
■
Do not freeze any fi zzy drinks; water
expands when frozen.
■
Do not store glass or metal containers
of liquid. The containers could break.
■
Only freeze high-proof alcohol that is
tightly sealed.
Health hazard!
Contaminated food can cause health
problems.
■
Opening the door for long periods can
cause a signifi cant increase of the
temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
■
Clean regularly surfaces that can
come in contact with food and acces-
sible drainage systems.
■
If the fridge/freezer is left empty
for long periods, switch off, defrost,
clean, dry, and leave the door open to
prevent mould developing within the
appliance.
Switch off/shutdown
If you do not want to use the empty freezer
for an extended period, switch it off in the fol-
lowing way:
1. Pull the mains plug out of the socket to
switch off the freezer.
Notice: If you set the temperature control-
ler to “MIN”, the freezer is
not
switched off.
2. Remove all food from the freezer and
store it in a cool place so that the food
does not spoil.
3. Remove the freezer baskets.
4. Clean the freezer.
5. Leave the door open slightly to avoid
mould formation in the interior.
You have now decommissioned the freezer.
