- Removing drawers, fig. G1: pull forward until the drawer
stops and lift out.
- Removing the shelf, fig. G2: lift the shelf up at the front
and pull out.
To insert: proceed in reverse order, simply push shelf in as
far as it will go.
W Always store identical food items together to avoid the
door being open for unnecessarily long periods and to
save energy.
W Do not exceed storage times given.
W Thawing: Only take out as much food as is immediately
required for thawing. Cook food which has been thawed
as quickly as possible.
Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways:
- in a conventional or fan oven
- in a microwave oven
- at room temperature
- in the refrigerator: the cold given off by the frozen food is
used for cooling the other food.
- Flat portions of meat or fish can be cooked when partially
thawed.
- Vegetables can be cooked from frozen (in half the normal
time).
Information system*
Use frozen food within the recommended period.
The numbers between the symbols indicate the storage peri-
od in months for different kinds of frozen foods.
Storage times given are guide times for food frozen at home.
Whether or not the lower or upper value is applicable de-
pends on the food quality and how it was processed prior to
freezing. The lower values always apply to food with a high
fat content.
Freezing with SuperFrost
W Press the SuperFrost button 4 briefly so that it
lights up.
The freezer temperature will decrease and the
appliance will switch to the lowest temperature.
W For small amounts of frozen food, it is normally sufficient
to switch on SuperFrost 6 hours beforehand. For the ma-
ximum amount (see freezing capacity on the type plate)
you will need to switch it on 24 hours beforehand.
W Then place the fresh food inside the freezer, preferably in
the top drawers.
If freezing the maximum quantity of food, do not use the
drawers; instead, place the wrapped food directly on the
shelves. Once the food is frozen you can load it into the
drawers.
- The SuperFrost function switches off automatically.
Depending on the quantity of food placed in the freezer,
this will normally be between 30 and max. 65 hours. The
freezing process is now complete, the SuperFrost button
will go dark, and the freezer will switch back to normal
energy-saving operation.
Note: You should not switch on the SuperFrost function:
- when placing frozen food in the freezer;
- when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily.
Notes on freezing and storage
W Items suitable for freezing: meat, game, poultry, fresh
fish, vegetables, fruit, dairy products, bread, baked goods,
pre-cooked meals.
Not suitable: lettuce, radishes, grapes, whole apples and
pears, fatty meat.
W Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or reusable
plastic, metal or aluminium containers.
W Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to come into
contact with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry
in order to avoid them sticking together.
W Always write the date and contents on the pack and do
not exceed the stated storage time for the food. This pre-
vents any risk of quality impairment.
W Pack food which you are freezing yourself in quantities
appropriate to your household. To ensure that the food
freezes right through quickly, the following quantities
should not be exceeded per package:
- fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg;
- meat: up to 2.5 kg.
W Blanch vegetables after washing and cutting them. (Add
to boiling water for 2-3 minutes, remove and quickly cool
down in cold water. If you blanch with a steamer or micro-
wave oven, please observe the relevant operating instruc-
tions.)
W Do not salt or season fresh food or blanched vegetables
before freezing. Only lightly salt and season other food.
Some spices can alter their flavour intensity.
W Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain carbonated
drinks as they might burst. Drinks can be cooled down
quickly, but take the bottles out of the freezer compart-
ment after an hour at the most.
W Storage: Each drawer and shelf can take up to 25 kg
frozen food.
- VarioSpace: By removing a drawer and a shelf, you
obtain the storage space for bulky goods equivalent to two
drawer heights. Poultry, meat, large game pieces and tall
baked goods can be frozen whole and further prepared in
one piece.
W If you want to use the maximum net capacity, you can re-
move the drawers and store items directly on the shelves.
- Always leave the bottom drawer in the appliance.
- If you have removed the top drawer, do not cover the fan
slits at the back, otherwise the freezer will not work pro-
perly.
