Before placing food in the freezer
^ When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the
SuperFreeze function for some time
before placing the food in the freezer
(see "SuperFreeze").
This also helps to prevent food that is
already in the freezer from starting to
defrost.
Placing food in the freezer
Fresh food can be placed in any
drawer for freezing, however it is
preferable to use the upper drawers.
The top freezer drawer can be
loaded with a maximum of 15 kg.
Each of the other drawers and the
glass cold plates can be loaded with
a maximum of 25 kg.
^ Place the food flat in the bottom of
the drawers or on the glass cold
plates so that it freezes through to the
core as quickly as possible.
^ Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
When freezing, make sure that food
already frozen does not come into
contact with fresh food being frozen
as this could cause the frozen food
to begin to defrost.
Freezing large items
If you wish to freeze large items such
as a turkey or game, the glass cold
plates between the drawers can be
removed. To do this:
Freezing and storing food
The lowest freezer drawer must
always remain in the appliance.
^ Remove the freezer drawers and
carefully slide out the glass cold
plates.
Make sure that you do not block the
ventilation slits in the back wall of
the appliance with food. They are
important for trouble-free operation
of the appliance.
Freezer calendar
The freezer calendar on the freezer
drawer gives the length of time in
months which various foods can be
stored for effectively.
Where the storage time given on the
packaging differs, follow the advice on
the packaging.
2-3 months:
Cakes, ice cream, stew
3-5 months:
Fish, mushrooms, bread
6-8 months:
Pork, veal, poultry
