Prepare ice cubes:

Fill the ice cube trays at 2/3 with water.

The ice cubes dissolve by twisting the tray or by holding the

tray under running water for a short time.

Label fresh products clearly as they are not easy to identify

when deep frozen in transparent freezer-bags.

We recommend using commercially available labels for

frozen foods.

Pack fresh products in portions suitable for your needs to avoid

defrosting quantities that are too big for you to use up in one

day.

Label the portions with at least the following information:

 Product name (e.g. beef fillet)

 Weight of the Portion

 Quantity (number of pieces)

 Freezing date

 Use by date (see “Food storage guide”)

Then continue as follows:

a) Berries, fruits with peel, herbs etc. should be laid out loose

for freezing on the freezing tray (not all models are

supplied with this) in the upper part of the freezer and then

put into freezer bags after

about 12 hours. Store the filled freezer bags in one of the

available drawers.

Fresh food should be placed in the top drawer and moved

down to one of the lower drawers after approx. 24 hours.

Avoid putting fresh foods directly in contact with deep

frozen food. The deep frozen food could defrost and may

not last out the normal storage time.

b) Within a period of 24 hours fill up the freezer only with the

adequate quantities of fresh food for the freezing capacity

of your freezer.

Consult the information on the rating plate

(* XX kg/24h).

c) If your freezer is equipped with a SUPER FREEZE

SWITCH, switch it on (the yellow light will come on) this is

not strictly necessary when filling up with already frozen

foods (e.g. deep frozen foods).

WARNING! Switch off the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH after

24 hours at the latest (the yellow light will go off).

d) Set the temperature dial to a medium to high setting.

e) Keep the temperature in the freezing compartment

under control preferably by placing a suitable thermometer

with a scale range of up to -26°C.

The storage temperature must always be

at least - 18°C.

Refilling the freezer compartment with fresh (not frozen)

food

Make sure that you wait at least 24 hours before refilling with

fresh food, in adequate quantities for the freezing capacity of

your freezer (XX kg/24h).

Maximum capacity

In order to ensure correct storage of frozen food, never fill the

drawers up to the top.

Set the temperature dial strictly according to the filling

capacity.

To save energy in normal room temperatures ( + 18°C to +

22°C) we recommend setting the temperature dial to a

medium setting.

Storage time

The storage time for ready deep-frozen products depends on

the type of product and on its ingredients.

For this reason, you should strictly follow the producer’s

instructions on the packaging.

When you want to freeze fresh foods yourself, consult the

Food storage guide at the back of this user manual.

Once frozen foods have been defrosted, they should be used

up within between 12 to 24 hours.

Do not eat any food beyond its storage time, this

could lead to food poisoning.

Refrigerating storage battery

(not supplied with all appliances)

Refrigerating storage batteries serve two functions:

 In the event of a power cut, the storage battery prevents the

temperature inside the appliance from

 going up too much – this preserves the quality of the food for

longer.

 Put storage batteries with the flat side in contact with the

uppermost evaporation panel or in the top compartment.

 Storage batteries can also be used to keep foods cool in a

cool box.

 Storage batteries reach their maximum refrigerating

 capacity after they have been in the freezer for about 24

hours at - 18° C or lower and are then placed in one of the

cool boxes that are commercially available.

Precautions and advice

 Whenever cleaning or defrosting, remove the power plug or

switch off the main fuse.

 After closing the freezer door, do not open it immediately

and do not force it open under any circumstances. The

vacuum created by the sealing of the door is dispersed after

about 1 - 2 minutes, so that the door can be opened

normally again.

 To prevent condensation and ice forming, allow cooked food

to cool down to room temperature before closing the lid of

the dish and before storage.

 Leave the freezer door open as briefly as possible to avoid

wasting energy and to prevent an excessive amount of ice

forming in the freezer compartment.

 If the red pilot light comes on unexpectedly or stays on for a

long period of time, do not open the door on any account

and take appropriate measures immediately (see chapter

“What to do when.....“

 Never use a screwdriver or any other sharp-edged metal

tool to remove the layers of ice. The inside walls are very

delicate and can be easily damaged by sharp edges. Use

only plastic or wooden scrapers with no sharp edges.

18 Defrosting

a) Fridge

Whilst the compressor (refrigeration unit) is running,

frost and condensation can form on the rear wall. These

do not have to be removed as the fridge automatically

defrosts.

The defrost water runs from the channel via the drain

hole, into a vessel from which it evaporates.
