About the Freezer Compartment
Note: Do not pull the freezer drawers with too much force as
food may fall out. Do not overpack the drawer otherwise food
will fall out when opening too fast.
Make sure that the two sides of the shelf are in level
n
n
positions otherwise food may drop off.
The shelves will not pull out accidentally when you remove
foodstuff from the appliance.
The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food, for
storing frozen food, and for making ice cubes.
If the freezer door has been left open for a long time or not
closed properly, frost will form and can prevent efficient air
circulation. To resolve this, unplug the freezer and wait for it
to defrost. Clean the freezer once it has fully defrosted.
Remove baskets, covers, and so on, to increase the storage
volume of freezer.
The freezer volume stated on the label is the volume without
baskets, covers, and so on.

DO NOT refreeze thawed food. It may pose a danger to your
health and cause problems such as food poisoning.
DO NOT put warm food in the deep freeze compartment
until it has completely cooled. It will thaw already frozen food,
which may then rot.
When purchasing frozen food, make sure it has been stored
under appropriate conditions and the packaging is not
damaged.
DO NOT purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs
of humidity or if it has a foul odour. The food may not have
been stored correctly and may have gone rotten.
The storage life of frozen food depends on the room
temperature, the thermostat setting, how often the door is
opened, the type of food, and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop to your freezer. Always
follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never
exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
NOTE: Remove frozen food from the freezer the day before
consumption, and put in the bottom compartment of
the refrigerator. This helps reduce the temperature in the
refrigerator, which in turn saves energy. If the frozen food
defrosts in an open area, energy loss will occur.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately
after closing it, you will find that it will not open easily. This
is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will
open easily.
