Freezing and storing frozen food
days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4
of that on the rating plate. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
• To obtain the best performance from this appliance, we suggest that
all of the internal baskets are used.
• Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will
cause increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.
• Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufac-
turer.
• Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into
meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.
• Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low tempera-
tures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers
with flammable materials such as spray cans, fire extinguisher refill
cartridges etc in the freezer.
• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst
when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even
explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc.
in the freezer.
• To ensure the correct functioning of the appliance, no foodstuffs
should be stored directly against the cold air outlet.

1. To freeze the maximum quantity shown on the rating plate press the
FROSTMATIC button 24 hours prior to freezing, or 4 to 6 hours for
smaller quantities. Yellow display lights up.
The FROSTMATIC button need not be pressed for freezing of small
quantities.
2. All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do
not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination
of other frozen goods occurs.
Because freezing is faster with frost free technology, once food is
defrosted, it retains all of its original texture, vitamins and taste.
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could
stick to the food and cause skin abrasions.
3. Place the packed food in the drawers. Place food to be frozen in the
bottom drawer (4) of the freezer as this is the coldest part.
Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, otherwise the
frozen food could begin to defrost. Freezer drawers (1), (2) and (3)
should only be used for storage of frozen food so that the bottom
drawer can be used for a further freezing operation.
Place frozen foods in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible.
