Freezing and storing food
53
Make a note of the contents and the
date of freezing on the packaging.
Before placing food in the freezer
section
When freezing more than 1 kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
freeze function for some time before
placing the food in the freezer (see
"Using Super cool and Super freeze -
Super freeze function").
This helps food which is already stored
in the freezer to stay frozen.
Placing food in the freezer section
The following maximum loading
weights must not be exceeded:
– freezer drawer = 25 kg
– glass cold plate = 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 drawer so that it freezes
through to the core as quickly as pos-
sible.
- 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 in-
crease.
Place food on the glass plate in such
a way that the ventilation slots are
not blocked.
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.
