Before placing food in the freezer

^ When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
freeze function for some time before
placing the food in the freezer (see
"Super freeze").
This also helps to prevent food that is
already in the freezer from starting to
defrost.

Placing food in the freezer

Fresh food can be placed in any
drawer for freezing, however it is
preferable to use the upper drawers.
The top freezer drawer can be
loaded with a maximum of 15 kg of
food. The other drawers and the
cold plates can each hold 25 kg.
^ Place the food flat in the bottom of
the drawers or on the glass cold
plates so that it freezes through to the
core as quickly as possible.
^ Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
When freezing, make sure that food
already frozen does not come into
contact with fresh food being frozen
as this could cause the frozen food
to begin to defrost.

Freezing large items

If you wish to freeze large items such
as a turkey or game, the glass cold
plates between the drawers can be
removed. To do this:

carefully slide out the glass cold

for trouble-free operation of the
