Super freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly
as possible. Vitamins, nutritional values,
appearance and taste are therefore
retained.
To prevent an undesirable temperature
rise when placing fresh food in the freezer
compartment, switch on super freezing
several hours beforehand.
As a rule, 4 6 hours is adequate.
If max. freezing capacity is to be utilised,
24 hours are required.
Smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg) can
be frozen without Super freezing".
Switching the super freezing
compartments on and off
The super freezing button, Fig. 2/4,
activates and deactivates this mode.
Super freezing" switches off
automatically after 2½ days at the latest.
