Fast Freezing; Switching On And Off; Thawing Frozen Food; Interior Fittings - Gaggenau RB 289 Gebrauchsanleitung

Fast freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible
in order to retain vitamins, nutritional value,
appearance and flavour.
Several hours before placing fresh food in the freezer
compartment, switch on fast freezing to prevent an
unwanted temperature rise.
As a rule, 4-6 hours is adequate.
This appliance runs constantly and the freezer
compartment drops to a very low temperature.
If you would like to use the max. freezing capacity,
switch on fast freezing for 24 hours before placing the
fresh produce in the freezer compartment.
You can freeze smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg)
without fast freezing.
Note
When fast freezing is switched on, increased
operating noises may occur.
