Super freezing
Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible
in order to retain vitamins, nutritional value, appearance
and flavour.
Several hours before placing fresh food in the freezer
compartment, switch on super freezing to prevent
an unwanted temperature rise.
As a rule, 4–6 hours is adequate.
This appliance runs constantly and the freezer
compartment drops to a very low temperature.
If the max. freezing capacity is to be used, super
freezing must be switched on for 24 hours before the
fresh produce is placed in the freezer compartment.
You can freeze smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg)
without fast freezing.
Note
When super freezing is switched on, increased
operating noises may occur.
Switching on Super freezing
1. Keep pressing the “select” button until the freezer
compartment climate zone is marked with an arrow.
2. Press “super/quick ice” button.
If “super freezing” is switched on, “SU” and “super” are
indicated on the display panel.
Switching off Super freezing
1. Keep pressing the “select” button until the freezer
compartment climate zone is marked with an arrow.

m
Caution
Do not refreeze thawing or thawed food. Only ready
meals (boiled or fried) may be refrozen.
No longer store the frozen produce for the max.
storage period.
Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage
location for ready meals, cakes and pastries, preserved
food, condensed milk and hard cheese.
Arranging food in the appliance
■
Wrap or cover food before placing in the appliance.
This will retain the aroma, colour and freshness
of the food. In addition, flavours will not be
transferred between foods and the plastic parts will
not become discoloured.
■
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
■
Do not block air outlet openings with food, otherwise
the air circulation will be impaired. Food which is
stored directly in front of the air outlet openings may
be frozen by the cold air flowing out.
■
Keep plastic parts and the door seals free of oil
and grease.
■
Bottles which contain a high percentage of alcohol
must be sealed and stored in an upright position.
