to be frozen.
4.2 Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, before putting the products
in the compartment let the appliance run
at least 2 hours on the higher settings.

stored, remove all drawers and baskets
from appliance and place food on
cooling shelves to obtain the best
performance.
