Freezing and storing food
52
Before placing food in the appliance
When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the SuperFreeze
function for some time before placing
the food in the freezer (see
“SuperFreeze function” in “Using
SuperFreeze and DynaCool”).
This helps food which is already stored
in the freezer to stay frozen.
Placing food in the freezer
If the food is too heavy, this can
cause damage.
Loading food which is too heavy can
cause damage to the freezer
drawers/glass shelves.
Do not exceed the relevant maximum
load:
– freezer drawer = 25 kg
– glass shelf = 35 kg
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 of
food (see data plate)
If the ventilation slots are blocked the
cooling performance will decrease
and energy consumption will
increase.
When placing food in the freezer,
make sure that the ventilation slots
are not blocked.
Please note that when removing the
drawers, the lowest freezer drawer
must always remain in the
refrigeration appliance.
Remove the upper freezer drawers.
Place the food flat on the upper glass
shelves so that it freezes through to
the core as quickly as possible.
Once frozen:
Place the frozen goods in the freezer
drawer and push it back in.
