Freezing and storing food
66
Home freezing
Before placing food in the appliance
When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the SuperFreeze
function
6 hours before placing the
food in the freezer.
When freezing even larger amounts of
food, switch on the SuperFreeze
function
24 hours before placing
the food in the freezer.
This helps food which is already stored
in the freezer to stay frozen.
Only freeze food which is fresh and in
good condition.
Please note that some food is not
suitable for freezing. These include, for
example, vegetables that are usually
eaten raw, such as lettuce or radishes.
Useful tip:
To retain colour, taste,
aroma, and vitamin C, vegetables
should be blanched before they are
frozen. To blanch, immerse the trimmed
and washed vegetables in boiling water
for 2-3 minutes. Remove and plunge
into ice-cold water to cool quickly. Drain
and pack ready for freezing.
Packaging food for freezing
Freeze food in portions.
Useful tip:
Use suitable packaging to
avoid freezer burn (such as freezer
containers).
Expel as much air as possible from
the packaging and close it tightly.
Label the packaging with the
contents and the date of freezing.
Placing food in the freezer
Risk of damage due to heavy
loads.
Loading food which is too heavy can
cause damage to the freezer
drawers/glass shelves.
Do not exceed the relevant maximum
load:
Freezer drawer = 12 kg
Glass shelf = 35 kg
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause the
frozen food to begin to thaw.
To prevent food sticking together
when frozen, make sure that the
packaging and containers are dry.
To ensure that food freezes through to
the core quickly, do not exceed the
following packaging and container
sizes:
- Fruit and vegetables: max. 1 kg
- Meat: max. 2.5 kg
- Freezing small amounts of food
Freeze small items in the upper freezer
drawers.
