Super freezing
Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible in

ment drops to a very low temperature.
Before putting in a large amount of food, please set the
freezer temperature to the coldest (i.e. -24 °C) one day
in advance. When putting in food, activate the "super
freeze" mode immediately. After the food has been
frozen, please set the freezer temperature back to the
normal use position to avoid unnecessary energy con
sumption.
Smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg) can be frozen
without super freezing.
