At the Chiller setting on the dial, the unit may be compared with a butcher’s cold storage 
facility. The temperature in the cabinet can range from  2 degrees C to -2 degrees C This 
temperature or ‘Partial Freeze’ is ideal for storing meat or fish for a short period.  
 
The advantage is that the food can be cooked without first defrosting or thawing it.  
Food  stored  at  the  Chiller  setting  will  not  release  water  and  will  keep  its  natural  fibre. 
Sometimes it is undesirable to freeze a fine cut of meat as some of the flavour would be 
lost during freezing.   
 
At the Chiller setting, meat could be cooked as though it were fresh and portions could 
be removed without thawing, while the balance could be stored for another occasion.  

At the freezer setting on the dial, the temperature in the cabinet is set at  a minimum of   
-18 degrees C.  This temperature is ideal for storing frozen food for long periods of time. 

Fast Freeze Button  

(Depends on model).

 

Press  this  button  to  activate  the  Fast  Freeze  function.  Press  this  button  again  to 
deactivate the Fast Freeze function.  
Use this function when you place fresh food into the freezer compartment or when you 
need  ice.  When  this  function  is  active,  your  freezer  will  run  continuously  without 
stopping.  Please  observe  the  maximum  load  limit  for  fresh  food  on  the  specification 
table. Press the Fast Freeze button again to deactivate this function. 

Deep Freeze packaging information

 

Materials  to  be  used  for  packaging 

must  be  tear-proof  and  resistant  to  cold,  humidity, 

odour, oils and acids and they must also be airtight. They must be made from materials 
that are suitable for deep freeze usage.

 

Materials necessary for packaging 

Cold resistant adhesive tape, Self adhesive labels, Rubber rings and a Pen. 

Maintaining the quality of food

 

Food  must  be  frozen  as  rapidly  as  possible  when  placed  in  a  freezer  to  maintain  the  
quality  of  the  food.  It  is  possible  to  keep  the  food  for  a  long  time  period  only  at 
temperatures  of  -18  degrees  C  or  lower.  The  quality  of  food  in  a  freezer  can  be 
maintained for many months at temperatures of -18 degrees C or lower. 

At the refrigerator setting on the dial, the temperature in the cabinet will be above  
0  degrees  C.  This  temperature  is  ideal  for  storing  perishable  foods  such  as  dairy 
products,  fresh  vegetables,  and  cold  meats.  Cold  drinks  can  also  be  stored  at  this 
temperature.
