Super Freezing; Thawing Frozen Food; Interior Fittings - Siemens GS..N SERIES User Manual

Super freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly
as possible in order to retain vitamins,
nutritional value, appearance and flavour.
Several hours before placing fresh food
in the freezer compartment, switch on
super freezing to prevent an unwanted
temperature rise.
This appliance runs constantly and the
freezer compartment drops to a very low
temperature.
If the max. freezing capacity is to be
used, super freezing must be switched
on for 24 hours before the fresh produce
is placed in the freezer compartment.
Smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg)
can be frozen without "super freezing".
Note
When super freezing is switched on,
increased operating noises may occur.
Switching on and off

e.g. turkey, duck and goose.
Ice maker
Fig. (
Use only drinking water to make ice
cubes.
1. Take out water container and fill with
drinking water up to the mark.
Note
If too much drinking water is added,
the function of the ice maker may be
impaired. The ice cubes cannot be
removed individually from the ice tray.
Too much drinking water was added
and is running into the storage
container, causing any ice cubes to
freeze together.
2. Pour drinking water into the filler
opening.
3. Re-insert water container.
4. When the ice cubes are frozen, press
lever down and release.
The ice cubes loosen and fall into the
storage container.
