Food arrangement
Freezer compartment (B)
Use the freezer tray (21) to store small
frozen goods and make ice cubes.
Use the top frozen goods containers (22)
to store frozen foods.
Interior fittings
The shelves in the refrigerator compartment
can be re-arranged when the door is opened
at a 90° angle. Pull the shelf forwards, lower,
pull out and re-insert in the desired position
(Fig.
4
).
Bottle rack
Bottles can be placed and stacked securely in
the recesses (Fig.
5
).
The bottle shelf is provided with a retainer to
prevent bottles from falling over when the
door is opened or closed, (Figure
6
/A).
All trays, racks and containers attached
to the door can be removed for cleaning
purposes.
To remove, simply lift them up, (Fig.
7
).
The egg racks inserted into the door shelves
can be folded up to enable tubes, small tins,
etc. to be stacked in their place.
Freezing and storing
Note the following when
buying frozen food
l Inspect packaging: it should not be
damaged in any way.
l Make sure the “Best before ...” date has
not expired.
l Check thermometer of the vendor's
freezer. It should read –18 °C or colder.
l Ensure that the frozen foods are the last
items to be bought. Wrap in several layers
of newspaper or place in a thermo-
insulated bag and take home at once.
Store frozen products in the freezer with-
out delay.
Freezing at home
If freezing at home, use only foodstuffs which
are absolutely fresh and in perfect condition.
Foodstuffs that freeze well
Meat, cold slices and sausage, poultry and
game, fish, vegetables, aromatic herbs, fruit,
bread and pastries, pizza, precooked meals,
leftovers, egg yolks and whites.
Foodstuffs not suitable for freezing
Whole eggs in their shells, soured cream
and mayonnaise, lettuces, radishes,
horseradish and onions.
Blanching vegetables and fruit
It is advisable to blanch vegetables and fruit
before freezing in order to preserve colour,
flavour, aroma and vitamin C.
(To blanch, bring a large saucepan of water
to a fast boil and completely immerse fruit or
vegetables briefly. Most book stores offer a
wide selection of literature on freezing which
will also deal with blanching.)
Wrapping food
Pack the food in portions suitable for your
household.
Vegetable and fruit portions should be no
heavier than 1 kg, while meat portions can
Freezing and storing
be up to 2.5 kg. Smaller portions freeze
through more quickly and the quality is
thereby maintained better when defrosting
and preparing the food.
It is important to seal food airtight before
freezing to prevent it from losing its taste
or dehydrating.
Suitable wrapping materials:
plastic foil, polyethylene tubular film,
aluminium foil and freezing containers.
These items are available from any dealer.
Unsuitable wrapping materials:
wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cello-
phane, bin bags or used carrier bags.
Place food in the wrapping, press out any
air and seal it airtight.
Suitable sealing materials:
rubber bands, plastic clips, string, freezer
tape or similar. Polyethylene tubular film and
bags may be heat-sealed using a special
sealing iron or press.
Before placing in the freezer, each
package should be clearly labelled
with the contents and date of freezing.
Maximum freezing
capacity
Foodstuffs should be frozen right through
as quickly as possible. Only in this way it
is possible to retain vitamins, nutrients,
appearance and taste. You should therefore
never exceed your appliance's maximum
freezing capacity.
Within 24 h a max 15 kg of food for 70 cm
and 12 kg for 60 cm width appliances, can
be frozen at once in the upper compartments.
Food that is already frozen should never
come into contact with fresh food about
to be frozen.
Allow hot food and drinks to cool down
to room temperature before placing in the
freezer.
Super-cooling
If you are going to buy fresh food you should
switch on super-cooling 3-4 hours before or
at the latest when placing fresh food in the
refrigerator. To switch on super-cooling,
repeatedly press or hold down the
temperature selection button
0
C (Fig. 2/2)
until the indicator illuminates at “super-
cooling” (Fig. 2/4). "Super cooling" reduces
the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment for 6 hours. Then the
appliance automatically switches to the
temperature which was selected prior to
"super cooling".
Fast freezing
If frozen food is already being stored in the
freezer, you should switch on fast freeze
several hours before putting in fresh food
to freeze.
Normally, it will suffice to switch on fast
freeze 4–6 hours ahead. If you are planning
to make full use of maximum freezing
capacity, switch on 24 hours in advance.
Smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg) can
be frozen without the fast freeze facility. To
switch on "super" freeze, simply press the
"super" freeze button, (Fig.
2
/8).
The “super” indicator (orange light) lights up
to show that the fast freeze function is
operating.
After switching on, a very low temperature is
achieved in the freezer compartment.
Fast freezing switches off automatically
approximately 50 hours after being
switched on.
Storage of food
If you need to freeze very large quantities of
food, you may find it convenient to remove
the frozen food containers except for the
bottom container and to stack your products
directly on the freezing grids. To remove
containers, pull out as far as they will go, tilt
upwards and remove.
