Miele KFN 8992 SD ED Refrigerator User Manual


 
Super Cool
The Super Cool function can be used to
rapidly reduce the temperature in the
refrigerator section to its lowest setting
(depending on the room temperature).
Switching Super Cool ON
Super Cool is particularly
recommended for faster chilling of
large amounts of fresh food or drink.
^ Press the Super Cool button, and the
indicator light will come on. The
appliance will now work at full power
to lower the temperature in the
refrigerator section.
Switching Super Cool OFF
The Super Cool function automatically
switches off after approx. 6 hours. The
indicator light turns off, and the
appliance continues running at normal
power.
To save energy, the Super Cool
function can be switched off once the
food and/or drinks are sufficiently
chilled.
^
Press the Super Cool button, and the
indicator light will now go out.
The appliance now continues running
at normal power.
Freezing fresh food
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly
as possible, so that the nutritional
value, vitamin content, appearance,
and taste are retained.
When food takes a long time to freeze,
water leaks out of the cells, which then
shrink. Later, when the food is
defrosted, only a portion of this water is
reabsorbed into the cells. This means
that slowly frozen food loses a lot of its
moisture. You can recognize this if a
large pool of water collects around the
food as it thaws.
By contrast, if the food is frozen quickly,
the cells have less time to lose
moisture, so they shrink less. Also,
because a smaller amount of moisture
is lost, it is easier for the food to
reabsorb it during the defrosting
process. This can be recognized by
the relatively small pool of water around
the food.
