Warning!

Do not store any bottled liquids in the freezer. Liquids

expand when frozen and the bottle may explode.

Never keep explosive substances or aerosol cans with

inflammable propellants such as butane, propane,

pentane etc. in the freezer. Any escaping gases could be

ignited by electrical components. Such aerosol cans can

be recognised by the list of contents or by the inflammable

symbols printed on the can itself.

When storing ready frozen food, you must follow the

manufacturer’s instructions on the food packaging.

Deep frozen ice-cream and ice-lollies must not be eaten

until a few minutes after being taken from the freezer to

avoid injury to lips and tongue (danger of

skin detachment). For the same reason, avoid touching

the frozen inside walls of the freezer with wet hands.

Defrosted or slightly frozen products should be used

immediately. As a rule, such products are not suitable for

re-freezing.

Packaging should be dry to avoid things freezing together.

Ready frozen foods should be stored so that they do not

come into contact with newly added foods that have not

yet frozen.

User instructions for the fridge

Relevant instructions can be found in one of the following

chapters.

8 Freezing / Storing fresh food

Almost all fresh products are suitable for freezing and

storing in the freezer.

For the most common of these products, a storage guide

with details of acceptable storage times and the most

suitable packaging is provided. (See “Food storage guide”

at the back of this user manual).

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

Storage table (Chapter 18).

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.
