The 4-Star freezer allows you to store frozen food at
a temperature of -18°C or colder for several months;
to produce ice cubes and to freeze fresh food. The
temperature of the freezer is automatically controlled
by the temperature control in the fridge.
NOTE: NOTE:
NOTE: NOTE:
Make sure that the temperature in the freezer does
not rise above -18°C. For this, the unit should be
defrosted regularly.

• 24 hours before freezing we recommend to set
the temperature to the highest performance level
and to keep this setting even after freezing for a
few hours. The appliance is not compromised if
the setting will not revert to a normal operating
temperature after the freezing process, but for
economic reasons you should possibly avoid it.
• Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to
the core. Therefore during freezing operation, the
temperature of fresh food should be lowered as
fast as possible in order to keep formation of ice
crystals as little as possible and not to damage
the food structure.
• Frozen food should be kept in contact with the
bottom of the compartment.
• Keep a space between the individual items, so
that the cold air can circulate.
Storing frozen food Storing frozen food
Storing frozen food Storing frozen food
• Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in a
4-star-freezer compartment in accordance with
the manufacturer's data. Make sure the food
items do not defrost after purchase and to store
them as fast as possible in the freezer.
• It is possible to store food for longer periods of
time, up to three months. This period might vary,
so observe the storage information on the pack-
aging of the merchandise.
General safety precautions General safety precautions General safety precautions General safety precautions
• Do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity.
See data under "Technical Data" and on the rat-
ing label.
• Do not store bottles or cans. These can break
when the contents freeze – or even explode, if
they contain carbonated drinks.
• Once products have been defrosted halfway or
completely, they should be consumed as soon as
possible and should not be frozen again, except
they have been processed to a ready meal.
• Do not open the door in case of power failure. If
the failure does not take longer than 15 hours
food will not be affected.
• Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not eat ice
cream directly from the freezer. The cold can
cause injuries in the oral cavity.
• Touching metal parts inside the appliance can
cause symptoms similar to burns if the skin is very
sensitive.
• Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.
