The Freezer - Zanussi Electrolux ZNB 3450 S Instruction Book

The Freezer

Freezing fresh food
The appliance can be used to freeze fresh food of quantity
specified on the data label. Freezing different products
should always be done after proper preparing as follows.
Press the function selection button once or twice as
occasion requires to obtain super freezing mode (the super
freezing mode symbol shown on the display).
Put the previously frozen food to another basket or baskets.
Put the fresh food into the lower basket, leaving enough
space for airflow.
Run the appliance this way for 24 hours.
To exit from super freezing mode press the function
selection button again. Should you not do so, after a while
the freezer returns to automatic mode.
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.
The freezing tray is suitable for freezing smaller fruits
(raspberry, strawberry, currant, etc.). Fruits should be
put in the tray in thin layers without packaging. After freezing
they can be packed and sorted out then placed into the
storing compartments.
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.
It is practical to replace frozen products into the
basket(s)after freezing has finished. Doing this you could
make room in the freezing compartment for another
freezing. Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate foods
already stored.
In large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the
baskets except the lowermost one from appliance and
place food on the shelves.
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.
