Freezing Fresh Foods

• Carefully select food you intend to freeze; it should be of adequate
quality and suitable for freezing.
• Use correct packaging and wrap it right.
− The packaging should be air tight and shouldn't leak since this
could cause substantial vitamin loss and dehydration of foods.
− Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the
foods.
• Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of foods and
the date of loading.
• It is most important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible.
Therefore we recommend the size of the package not to be too large
and to be cooled before loading into the freezer.
• The amount of fresh foods that can be loaded in the freezer within 24
hours is indicated on the rating plate (freezing capacity). If the
loaded amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced which
affects the quality of frozen foods.

Freezing Procedure

• If you have a model without the integrated switch for intensive
cooling, turn the thermostat knob to position 4-6 some 24 hours
before loading. After 24 hours load the freezer shelf with fresh food
packages. Some 24 hours after loading, turn the thermostat knob to
operating position if necessary (see Temperature selection), and
then reload the frozen packages into the storage baskets (storing
compartment).
If you have a model with integrated switch for intensive cooling,
switch it on some 24 hours before loading the appliance with larger
