Freezing and storing food
37
Before placing food in the appliance
When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
freeze function for some time before
placing the food in the freezer (see
“Using Super freeze and DynaCool -
Super freeze function”).
This helps food which is already stored
in the freezer to stay frozen.
Placing food in the freezer section
Do not exceed the maximum
load of 25 kg in each freezer drawer.
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause frozen
food to begin to thaw.
Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
- Freezing small amounts of food
Place the food in the upper freezer
drawers.
Place the food flat in the bottom of
the freezer drawers so that it freezes
through to the core as quickly as
possible.
- Freezing the maximum amount (see
data plate)
Ensure ventilation slots at the back
of the freezer section are always free
from obstruction.
If the ventilation slots are blocked the
cooling performance will decrease
and energy consumption will
increase.
Place food on the glass plate in such
a way that the ventilation slots are
not blocked.
Please note that when removing the
drawers, the lowest freezer drawer
must always remain in the freezer.
Remove the upper freezer drawers.
Place the food flat on the upper glass
cold plates so that it freezes through
to the core as quickly as possible.
Once frozen:
Place the frozen food in the freezer
drawer and push it back in.
