The Freezer
Freezing fresh food
The appliance can be used to freeze fresh food in the
quantity specified on the rating plate. Freezing fresh food
should always be done after proper preparing as follows.
Press the function selection button once or twice as
required to obtain super freezing mode (the super freezing
mode symbol shown on the display).
Put the previously frozen food to another basket or baskets.
Put the fresh food into the lower basket, leaving enough
space for airflow.
Run the appliance this way for 24 hours.
To exit from super freezing mode press the function
selection button again. Should you not do so, after a while
the freezer returns to automatic mode.
Never freeze food in larger quantities than
shown in the "Technical data" at the same
time, otherwise food may not be thoroughly
frozen.
Do not make ice during freezing preferably, because
making ice reduces freezing capacity.
The freezing tray is suitable for freezing smaller fruits
(raspberry, strawberry, currant, etc.). Fruits should be
put in the tray in thin layers without packaging. After freezing
they can be packed and sorted out then placed into the
storing compartments.
Frozen Food Storage
When turning on the freezer for the first time
or if the
freezer has been out of use for some time, we advise you to
run your appliance for at least 2 hours before storing frozen
food.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than
is necessary.
You can put frozen products into the basket(s)after freezing
has finished.
This will enable you to
make room in the
freezing compartment for
other food
. Intermediate freezing
does not deteriorate foods already stored.
If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the
baskets except the lowest one from appliance and place
food on the shelves.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from
the freezer can cause a low temperature skin burn.
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will not
be affected if the power cut is short and the freezer is full.
Do not open the door. Should the food begin to thaw it
must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen.
(See Hints and Tips)
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are
damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
frost/freezer burns.
