Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh
food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long
time.
Before freezing fresh food make sure that the tempera-
ture inside the freezer is -18° or colder.

putting the products in the compartment let the appli-
ance run at least 2 hours.
