The Freezer
Freezing fresh food
In the compartment various fresh food can be frozen
at home. Mind the following to get thorough result.
Freeze fresh and faultless food only.
Before starting freezing set the thermostatic control
knob to position „3" and put the wire shelf in the frozen
food compartment to the highest position. Then put in
the quantity to be frozen, directly on the wire shelf.
Freezing is completed in approx. 24 hours. After 24
hours set the thermostatic control knob back to
„Medium" (2-3) position, or leave that in position „3"
which is usually adequate for everyday use. It is
practical to store the frozen food on the cooling plate
or on each other under the wire shelf in the frozen
food compartment.
Avoid opening the door of frozen food
compartment during freezing if possible.
It is not expedient to set the thermostat knob to
higher (e.g. „6") position. Freezing time could be
reduced this way, but the temperature of the fresh
food
compartment
permanently, which would cause freezing to foods and
drinks stored there.
Never freeze food in bigger quantity than
given in the „Technical data" at the same
time, otherwise freezing will not be thorough and
after dissolving various deterioration may take
place (losing taste and aroma, lysing, etc.).
Do not make ice during freezing preferably,
because making ice reduces freezing capacity.
Frozen Food Storage
When first starting the freezer or if the freezer has
been out of use for some time, we advise you to run
your appliance for at least 2 hours before storing
frozen food.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than is necessary.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer can cause a low temperature skin
burn.
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer
will not be affected if the power cut is short and the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the
food begin to thaw it must be consumed quickly
and must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and Tips)

Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used,
can be thawed in the fridge or at room temperature,
depending on the time available. Small food items
may even be cooked from frozen, in this case
cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be eaten as soon as
possible, or thrown away. Alternatively, if the food is
uncooked and has not been completely defrosted
it can be cooked and then refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must never be
refrozen.
To Make Ice Cubes
1. Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full with cold water, place
0 °C
in the freezing compartment and leave to freeze.
2. To remove the cubes twist the tray or hold it
under running water for a few seconds.
Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to
the freezer compartment by using pointed
or sharp edged objects.
