• Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into
meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.
• Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temper-
atures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers
with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire
extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.
• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst
when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even
explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine
etc. in the freezer.
Press the fast freeze button for the freezing of fresh food. The yellow
light illuminates.
To utilise the maximum rated freezing capacity, switch on the fast
freeze switch 24 hours before freezing is due to start (the yellow light
illuminates). For smaller amounts the fast freeze switch should be
switched on 4 - 6 hours in advance.
All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do
not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamina-
tion of other frozen goods occurs.
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could
stick to the food and cause skin abrasions.
Place the packed food in the drawers. Place food to be frozen in the
appliance´s two top drawers (2) and (3) equipped with their own
refrigerated shelves. Unfrozen food must not touch items already
frozen, otherwise the frozen food could begin to defrost. Freezer
drawers (4) and (5) should only be used for storage of frozen food.
Place frozen food in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible.
Once the food has frozen, press the fast freeze button again. The yel-
low light goes out.
Tips:
• The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods:
– freezer bags and polyethylene wraps;
– special containers for frozen goods;
– extra–thick aluminium foil.
• The following are suitable for sealing bags and wrap: plastic clips,
rubber bands or tape.
• Smooth the air out of the bag before sealing; air makes it easier for
the frozen food to dry out.
• Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly.
• Do not fill containers for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or
paste–like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.
