The Super cool function will switch itself off automatically after approx. 6 hours. The appliance will then continue to work at normal power. Switching on Super cool To save energy, the Super cool function can be switched off once food and drinks are sufficiently chilled.
Super cool and Super freeze Super freeze Switch the Super freeze function on before putting fresh food into the freezer section. This helps food to freeze quickly and retain its nutrients, vitamins, flavours and appearance. Super freeze is not necessary: – when placing food in the freezer that is already frozen. – when freezing less than 2 kg fresh food daily. Switching on Super freeze When freezing small quantities of food in the freezer, the Super freeze function should be switched on 6 hours beforehand.
Using the PerfectFresh zone efficiently For every type of food, there are ideal storage conditions to ensure it stays fresh as long as possible, retaining both flavour and vitamins. The important factors for this are the storage temperature and the humidity. The correct combination of temperature and humidity is a unique feature of the PerfectFresh zone. Food can be stored for up to three times longer in the PerfectFresh zone than in a standard refrigerator.
Using the PerfectFresh zone efficiently Do not store explosive materials in the appliance or any products containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Danger of explosion. If storing food which contains a lot of fat or oil, make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic components as this could cause stress cracks. Food must not touch the back wall of the PerfectFresh zone, as it may freeze to the back wall.
Using the PerfectFresh zone efficiently Please take into account that high humidity is only achieved and effective if the food is stored unwrapped or loosely wrapped. – The high humidity setting - is ideal for storing freshly harvested products such as vegetables, salad, herbs, mushrooms and home-grown seasonal fruit. When the low humidity setting , is selected, the atmosphere inside the PerfectFresh compartment is the same as in a refrigerator.
Using the PerfectFresh zone efficiently Unpacked meat and vegetables Different types of unpacked meats and vegetables must be kept separate. To avoid any microbiological cross-contamination, these foods may only be stored together if they are wrapped. Take food out of the PerfectFresh zone approx. 30 - 60 minutes before using it. The aroma and taste do not fully develop until the food has reached room temperature.
Adjusting the interior fittings Moving the shelves To move the split shelf: The shelves can be adjusted according to the height of the food. ^ Take both halves of the split glass shelf out, ^ Raise the shelf, and pull it forwards slightly until the notch at the side is in line with the shelf support. It can then be raised or lowered to the required level. The raised edge at the back must face upwards to prevent food from touching the back of the appliance and freezing to it.
Adjusting the interior fittings PerfectFresh zone compartments The compartments in the PerfectFresh zone are on telescopic rails, and can be removed for filling, emptying or cleaning purposes. ^ Pull out the compartment as far as it will go, and then lift it up and out. Push the runners back in again to avoid injury or damage. ^ Carefully pull out the lid between the compartments slightly, and lift it down and out.
Freezing and storing food Maximum freezing capacity Storing frozen food To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer freezes through to the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freezing capacity must not be exceeded. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24-hour period is given on the data plate: "Freezing capacity ....kg/24 hrs".
Freezing and storing food Home freezing Only freeze fresh food which is in a good condition. Hints on home freezing – The following types of food are suitable for freezing: Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, vegetables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy products, pastry, leftovers, egg yolks, egg whites and a range of pre-cooked meals. – The following types of food are not suitable for freezing: Grapes, lettuce, radishes, sour cream, mayonnaise, eggs in their shells, onions, whole raw apples and pears.
Freezing and storing food Before placing food in the freezer section ^ When freezing more than 2 kg of fresh food, switch on the Super freeze function for some time before placing the food in the freezer (see "Super freeze"). This also helps to prevent food that is already in the freezer from starting to defrost. Placing food in the freezer section Food to be frozen can be placed anywhere in the freezer. Large quantities should be placed directly on the glass cold plates to freeze the food quickly.
Freezing and storing food Defrosting Cooling drinks Frozen food can be defrosted in different ways: To cool drinks quickly, place them in the refrigerator section, and switch on the Super cool function. If bottles are, however, placed in the freezer section for rapid cooling, make sure they are not left in for more than one hour, as they could burst.
Freezing and storing food Cool pack The cool pack prevents the temperature in the freezer rising too quickly in the event of a power cut. Place the cool pack in the top drawer of the freezer section, directly on top of the food. The cool pack will be at its most effective after it has been in the freezer for approx. 24 hours. If there is a power cut, place the cool pack directly on top of the frozen food in the top drawer so that the food will be kept cold for as long as possible.
