Freezing and storing food
54
Cooling drinks quickly
When cooling drinks quickly in the
freezer, make sure bottles are
not left in
for more than one hour
; otherwise
they could burst, causing injury and
damage.
Adjusting the interior fittings
Removing the drawers and glass
plates from the freezer
The drawers can be removed for filling,
emptying or cleaning purposes.
You can also use the space in the
freezer more flexibly. If you wish to
freeze large items such as a turkey or
game, the glass cold plates between
the drawers can be removed.
Pull out the drawers as far as they will
go, and then lift them up and out.
Lift the glass plate slightly, pull it
forwards and out.
Using accessories
Using the cool pack
The cool pack prevents the temperature
in the freezer section from rising too
quickly in the event of a power cut. This
can help prolong the storage life.
Place the cool pack in the top drawer
of the freezer section.
The cool pack will be at its most
effective after it has been in the freezer
for approx. 24 hours.
In the event of a power cut
Place the frozen cool pack directly on
top of the frozen food in the front of
the top drawer.
Tip:
When placing fresh food in the
freezer, use the cool pack to separate
the fresh food from the food which is
already frozen so that the frozen food
does not begin to thaw.
Tip:
The cool pack can also be used in
a cool bag to keep food or drinks cool
for a short period of time.
