•

Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to the core. Therefore during freezing operation, the tem-
perature of fresh food should be lowered as fast as possible in order to keep formation of ice crystals as lit-
tle as possible and not to damage the food structure.

•

Frozen food should be kept in contact with the bottom of the compartment.

•

Keep a space between the individual items, so that the cold air can circulate.

Storing frozen food

•

Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in a 4-star-freezer compartment in accordance with the
manufacturer’s data. Make sure the food items do not defrost after purchase and to store them as fast as
possible in the freezer.

•

It is possible to store food for longer periods of time, up to three months. This period might vary, so ob-
serve the storage information on the packaging of the merchandise.

NOTE:

Make sure that the temperature in the freezer does not rise above -18°C. The appliance should be defrosted
regularly. A thick layer of ice on the wall deteriorates the cooling effect and the power consumption increases.

Safety precautions

•

Do not store bottles or cans. These can break when the contents freeze – or even explode, if they contain
carbonated drinks.

•

Once products have been defrosted halfway or completely, they should be consumed as soon as possible
and should not be frozen again, except they have been processed to a ready meal.

•

Do not open the door in case of power failure. If the failure does not take longer than 12 hours, the food will
not be affected.

•

Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not allow children to eat ice cream directly from the freezer. The cold
can cause injuries in the oral cavity.

•

Touching metal parts inside the appliance can cause symptoms similar to burns if the skin is very sensitive.

•

Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.

NOTE

NOTE::::

For safety reasons, the freezer drawers are provided with a stopper. However they can be completely re-
moved by pulling them up and then removing them. Reattach in reverse order.

Defrosting

The fridge

fridge

fridge has an automatic defrosting system. During defrosting the water drops drain off at the rear side of

the cooling chamber. The water running through a flume, is collected in a container underneath the compres-
sor, where it will evaporate. Make sure the water discharge opening does not get clogged. Clean it carefully
with a pipe cleaner or knitting needle. A light formation of ice on the rear side during operation is normal.

To achieve better cooling and to save energy, defrost the freeze

freeze

freezer r r r regularly. To start the defrosting process

turn the temperature control to the off state and disconnect the plug or turn off the fuse. Remove the food
items and keep covered at a cool location. When the ice has melted, wipe the condensate away and dry the
device interior. You may then restart the device by connecting the plug and turning the temperature control.
