Ice pack
There is an ice pack in one drawer of the freezer.
Refer to the section “Prior to Initial Start–Up” concerning freezing of
the ice pack.
In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice pack will
lengthen the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to defrost by
several hours.
The ice pack can only fulfil this task optimally if it is placed in the
uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food.
You can use the ice pack for cooling cold bags.
