Warning!

Do not store any bottled liquids in the freezer. Liquids
expand when frozen and the bottle may explode.

Never keep explosive substances or aerosol cans with
inflammable propellants such as butane, propane,
pentane etc. in the freezer. Any escaping gases could be
ignited by electrical components. Such aerosol cans can
be recognised by the list of contents or by the inflammable
symbols printed on the can itself.

When storing ready frozen food, you must follow the
manufacturer’s instructions on the food packaging.

Deep frozen ice-cream and ice-lollies must not be eaten
until a few minutes after being taken from the freezer to
avoid injury to lips and tongue (danger of

skin detachment). For the same reason, avoid touching
the frozen inside walls of the freezer with wet hands.

Defrosted or slightly frozen products should be used
immediately. As a rule, such products are not suitable for
re-freezing.

Packaging should be dry to avoid things freezing together.

Ready frozen foods should be stored so that they do not
come into contact with newly added foods that have not
yet frozen.
User instructions for the fridge
Relevant instructions can be found in one of the following
chapters.
8 Freezing / Storing fresh food
Almost all fresh products are suitable for freezing and
storing in the freezer.
For the most common of these products, a storage guide
with details of acceptable storage times and the most
suitable packaging is provided. (See “
Food
s
torage guide”
at the back of this user manual).
Label fresh products clearly, as they are not easy to identify
when deep-frozen in transparent freezer-bags.
We recommend using commercially available labels for
frozen foods.
Pack fresh products in portions suitable for your needs to
avoid defrosting quantities that are too big for you to use up
in one day.
Label the portions with at least the following information:

Product name (e.g. beef fillet)

Weight of the Portion

Quantity
(number of pieces)

Freezing date

Use by date
(see “Food storage guide”)
Then continue as follows:
a) Berries, fruits with peel, herbs etc. should be laid out
loose for freezing on the freezing tray (not all models are
supplied with this) in the upper part of the freezer and
then put into freezer bags after about 12 hours. Store the
filled freezer bags in one of the available drawers.
Fresh food should be placed in the top drawer and
moved down to one of the lower drawers after approx.
24 hours.
Avoid putting fresh foods directly in contact with deep
frozen food. The deep frozen food could defrost and may
not last out the normal storage time.
b) Within a period of 24 hours, fill up the freezer only with
the adequate quantities of fresh food for the freezing
capacity of your freezer.
Consult the information on the rating plate (XX
kg/24h).
c) If your freezer is equipped with a SUPER FREEZE
SWITCH, switch it on (the yellow light will come on) this
is not strictly necessary when filling up with already
frozen foods (e.g. deep frozen foods).
WARNING! Switch off the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH
after 24 hours at the latest (the yellow light will go off).
d) Set the temperature dial to a medium to high setting.
e) Keep the temperature in the freezing compartment
under control preferably by placing a suitable
thermometer with a scale range of up to -26°C.
The
storage temperature must always be at least - 18°C.
Refilling the freezer compartment with fresh (not frozen)
food
Make sure that you wait at least 24 hours before refilling
with fresh food, in adequate quantities for the freezing
capacity of your freezer
(XX kg/24h).
Maximum capacity
In order to ensure correct storage of frozen food, never fill
the drawers up to the top.
Set the temperature dial strictly according to the filling
capacity.
To save energy in normal room temperatures ( + 18°C to +
22°C) we recommend setting the temperature dial to a
medium setting.
Storage time
The storage time for ready deep-frozen products depends
on the type of product and on its ingredients. For this
reason, you should strictly follow the producer’s instructions
on the packaging.
When you want to freeze fresh foods yourself, consult the
Storage table (Chapter 18).
Once frozen foods have been defrosted, they should be
used up within between 12 to 24 hours.
Do not eat any food beyond its storage time; this
could lead to food poisoning.
Refrigerating storage battery
(Not supplied with all appliances)
Refrigerating storage batteries serve two functions:

In the event of a power cut, the storage battery prevents
the temperature inside the appliance from going up too
much – this preserves the quality of the food for longer.

Put storage batteries with the flat side in contact with the
uppermost evaporation panel or in the top compartment.

Storage batteries can also be used to keep foods cool in a
cool box.

Storage batteries reach their maximum refrigerating
capacity after they have been in the freezer for about 24
hours at - 18° C or lower and are then placed in one of the
cool boxes that are commercially available.
Precautions and advice

Whenever cleaning or defrosting, remove the power plug
or switch off the main fuse.

After closing the freezer door, do not open it immediately
and do not force it open under any circumstances. The
vacuum created by the sealing of the door is dispersed
after about 1 - 2 minutes, so that the door can be opened
normally again.
