Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways,
depending on the type of food and the size of the
packs.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
or poultry can even be cooked while still frozen, but
you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked
through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for
thawing any type of frozen or deep-frozen food:
follow the oven instructions, particularly regarding
the placement of aluminium wrapping in the oven.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with two plastic ice cube
trays.
Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and
place them in one of the freezer drawers.
To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a
slight twist to release the cubes.
Cold accumulator
The freezer contains one cold accumulator which
can be found in one of the freezer drawers. Place the
cold accumulator in the FAST FREEZE
compartment see Fig. 5. The cold accumulator
increases storage times in the event of a power cut
or breakdown.
Removal of this unit will increase the capacity of the
fast freezing compartment but will reduce storage
times in the event of a power cut or breakdown.
