Freezing foods / storing frozen foods
WARNING
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
may lead to an explosion.
■
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.
CAUTION
Health hazard!
Contaminated foods 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.
■
Clean water tanks if they have not
been used for 48 h; fl ush the water
system connected to a water supply if
water has not been drawn for 5 days.
■
Store raw meat and fi sh in suitable
containers in the refrigerator, so that
it is not in contact with or drip onto
other food.
■
Two-star frozen-food compartments
are suitable for storing pre-frozen
food, storing or making ice-cream
and making ice cubes.
■
One-, two- and three-star compart-
ments are not suitable for the free-
zing of fresh food.
■
If the refrigerating appliance is left
empty for long periods, switch off,
defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door
open to prevent mould developing
within the appliance.
Health hazard!
Incorrect handling, insuffi cient cool-
ing or overlapping items can spoil the
stored food. This could lead to a risk of
food poisoning when consumed!
■
In particular, pack raw meat and fi sh
carefully to ensure that adjacent
food cannot be contaminated by sal-
monella or similar bacteria.
■
Abide by the storage times recom-
mended by food manufacturers.
■
Note that the shelf life of the frozen
food may be shortened due to a rise
in the temperature inside the appli-
ance (from defrosting, cleaning or
power failure).
■
In case of prolonged power failure
or appliance malfunction, remove
stored frozen food from the appli-
ance and store it in a suffi ciently cool
place or in another refrigerating ap-
pliance (maximum storage time in
case of malfunction: 34 hours).
■
After a malfunction, check wheth-
er the stored food is still edible. Con-
sume thawed and defrosted foods
immediately, do not refreeze.
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 compartment have a very low
temperature. Never touch them with
wet hands. This can cause injury to
the skin. Skin damage can occur even
with dry skin.
■
Let ice cubes or ice lollies thaw a lit-
tle before eating, do not put into your
mouth straight from the freezer area.
