1. Press the fast freeze button for the freezing of fresh food. The yellow
light illuminates.
To utilise the maximum rated freezing capacity, switch on the fast
freeze switch 24 hours before freezing is due to start (the yellow light
illuminates). For smaller amounts the fast freeze switch should be
switched on 4 - 6 hours in advance.
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.
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
appliance´s two top drawers (4) equipped with its own refrigerated
shelves. Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, otherwise
the frozen food could begin to defrost. Freezer drawers (3) should only
be used for storage of frozen food.
Place frozen foods in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible.
4. Once the required storage temperate has been reached, press the fast
freeze button again. The yellow light goes out.
Tips:
• The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods:
– freezer bags and polyethylene wraps;
– special containers for frozen goods;
– extra–thick aluminium foil.
• The following are suitable for sealing bags and wrap: plastic clips,
rubber bands or tape.
• Smooth the air out of the bag before sealing; air makes it easier for
the frozen food to dry out.
• Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly.
• Do not fill containers for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or
paste–like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.
