Freezing fresh food
To freeze the maximum quantity of fresh food specified on the rating plate you should follow the “Freezing using the super frost
setting” section as per below on page 9 a few hours prior to freezing.
For smaller quantities of fresh food then it should be switched on 1 hour prior to freezing as per the below.
Fresh food should be packed into airtight containers or packaging. This will help to make sure that the food doesn’t dry out or lose its
flavour. It will also ensure that flavour does not transfer from other food.
The food should be placed in the freezer compartment’s base. Do not allow fresh food to touch items that are already frozen.
After 24 hours you should check that the fresh food is satisfactorily frozen. If it is, then the super frost setting should be switched off
by pressing the super frost on/off button again. The super frost setting indicator neon will go out.
IMPORTANT: The super frost setting should not be switched on for prolonged periods of time; otherwise it may
cause the appliance to overwork. It could also cause the fridge and freezer section to freeze over.
Tips on Freezing
Freezer bags, polythene wraps, aluminium foil (extra thick) and special cans for frozen foods are suitable packaging for storing frozen
food.
Tape, rubber bands or plastic clips are suitable for sealing bags and wrapping.
Before sealing a suitable bag you should compress the air out of it as this will help the food more easily.
Flat packages freeze more easily.
If you are freezing liquid then do not fill the container to the brim. Liquids will expand when being frozen.
Do not place bottles (glass or tin) containing liquids (especially sparkling liquids) into the freezer as they could cause
the bottle to burst during freezing.
Making Ice Cubes
Fill the ice cube tray with water and place it in the freezer compartment.
After the water is completely frozen and turned to ice, twist the ice cube tray (as shown in the drawing below) to dispense the ice.
Freezing using the Super Frost Setting
If you are freezing the maximum amount of fresh food that can be frozen in a 24 hour period then it should be switched on a few
hours prior to freezing.
If you are freezing a smaller quantity of fresh food then it should be switched on 1 hour prior to freezing.
Press the super frost on/off button and the freezer will start to run continuously at its maximum setting
The green super frost indicator neon will light when the super frost on/off button has neon switched on.
