Opening and closing the
lid
As the lid is equipped with a tightly closing seal,
it is not easy to reopen it shortly after closing
(due to the vacuum formed inside).
Wait a few minutes before reopening the
appliance. The vacuum valve will help you to
open the lid.
Warning! Never pull the handle with
immense force.
Storage baskets
Hang the baskets on the upper edge of the
freezer (X) or place them inside the freezer
(Y). Turn and fix the handles for these two
positions as shown in the picture.
X
Y
The baskets will slide into each other.
The following pictures show how many
baskets can be placed inside the various
freezer models.

You can purchase additional baskets from
your local Service Centre.
Low frost System
The appliance is equipped with Low frost
System (you can see a valve inside the freezer
in the backside) what reduces ice-build-up in
the chest freezer by up to 80 percent. That
means for you up to 5 years without
defrosting.
Helpful hints and tips
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can
be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating
plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No
further food to be frozen should be added
during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and
thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it
to be rapidly and completely frozen and to
make it possible subsequently to thaw only
the quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or
polythene and make sure that the packages
are airtight;
