Operation Manual

Freezing and storing food
48
Make a note of the contents and the
date of freezing on the packaging.
Before placing food in the freezer
section
When freezing more than 2kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
freeze function some time before pla-
cing food in the freezer (see "Using
Super cool and Super freeze - Super
freeze"). This helps food which is
already stored in the freezer to remain
frozen.
Placing food in the freezer
The following maximum loading
weights must not be exceeded:
– freezer drawer = 25kg
– glass cold plate = 35kg
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause frozen
food to begin to thaw.
Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
- Freezing small amounts of food
Place the food in the upper freezer
drawers.
Place the food flat in the bottom of
the freezer drawer so that it freezes
through to the core as quickly as pos-
sible.
Please note that when removing the
drawers, the lowest freezer drawer
must always remain in the freezer.
When placing food on the glass cold
plate, make sure that you do not
block the ventilation slits in the back
wall of the appliance. They are im-
portant for trouble-free operation of
the appliance and normal energy
consumption.
- Freezing the maximum amount (see
data plate)
Remove the upper freezer drawers.
Place the food flat on the upper glass
cold plates so that it freezes through
to the core as quickly as possible.
Once frozen:
Place the frozen food in the freezer
drawer and push it back in.
- Large items
If you wish to freeze large items such as
a turkey or game, the glass cold plates
between the drawers can be removed.
Remove the upper freezer drawers
and carefully lift and slide out the
glass cold plates.
