Miele GT 316 ES Freezer User Manual


 
Never re-freeze partially or fully
defrosted food. Consume defrosted
food as soon as possible as it will
lose its nutritional value and spoil if
left for too long. Defrosted food may
only be re-frozen after it has been
cooked.
Cooling drinks
When cooling drinks quickly, make sure
bottles are not left in the freezer for
more than one hour, as they could
burst.
Freezer tray
The freezer tray is useful for freezing
small items such as berries and
vegetables. They can be frozen
individually and therefore maintain their
shape when defrosted.
^ Place the food spaced out on the
tray.
^
Hang the tray in a basket.
Leave food for 10 - 12 hours to freeze
thoroughly on the tray. Transfer it to a
freezer bag or suitable container once
frozen.
Cool pack
The cool pack prevents the
temperature in the freezer rising too
quickly in the event of a power cut.
To ensure that the cool pack freezes
through quickly, place it at the bottom
of the freezer in a corner against two of
the side walls.
The cool pack will be at its most
effective after it has been in the freezer
for approx. 24 hours.
To save space, place the cool pack on
the freezer tray once it is frozen.
If there is a power cut, place the cool
pack directly on top of the frozen food
so that the food will be kept cold for the
longest time possible.
The cool pack can also be used in a
cool bag to keep food or drinks cool for
a short period of time.
