Packing the food
Pack the food in separate portions which
suit the day to day needs of your
household. Divide vegetables and fruit
into portions no heavier than 1 kg and
meat into portions up to 2.5 kg. Smaller
portions freeze more quickly and retain
their quality better during defrosting and
cooking.
To retain the flavour and prevent the food
from drying out, wrap the food airtight.
Suitable for packing are:
plastic film, polythene tube film,
aluminium foil and freezer tins. These
products can be bought at a specialist
outlet.
Unsuitable are:
wrapping paper, greaseproof paper,
cellophane, refuse bags and used
shopping bags.
Place the food in the wrapping, squeeze
out all air and seal the wrapping well.
Suitable for sealing are:
elastic bands, plastic clips, string,
cold resistant tape or such like. Bags and
tube film of polythene may be sealed with
a film sealer.
Before placing the food in the freezer
compartment, mark each freezer packet
with the contents and the date on which it
was inserted.
Allow hot food and drinks to cool to room
temperature before placing them in the
freezer compartment.

Fast freezing
If there is already food in the freezer
compartment, switch on Fast freeze"
several hours before placing fresh
produce in the freezer compartment.
As a rule, 4-6 hours is adequate.
If max. freezing capacity is to be utilised,
24 hours are required. Smaller quantities
of food (up to 2 kg) can be frozen without
Fast freeze".
To switch ON fast freeze, simply press the
fast freeze button Fig. 2/3.
The yellow pilot light indicates that fast
freeze is ON. The refrigerating unit now
operates continuously. The freezer
compartment drops to a low temperature.
After inserting fresh produce into the
freezer compartment, switch OFF fast
freezing. The freezing process is now
controlled automatically by the appliance
at a reduced power consumption.
When the temperature indicator Fig. 3 is
in the black area, the freezing process is
complete.
