Storing Frozen Food; Freezing Fresh Food; Packing Frozen Food - Bosch KIS Series Gebrauchsanleitung

When loading products
Freeze large quantities of food preferably
in the very top compartment where food
freezes particularly quickly and therefore
also gently. Place the food over the
whole area of the compartments or in
the frozen food container. Food which is
already frozen must not come into
contact with the food which is to be
frozen. If required, move the frozen food
to the frozen food container.

Storing frozen food

Insert frozen food container all the way to
ensure unrestricted air circulation.

Freezing fresh food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
To retain the best possible nutritional
value, flavour and colour, vegetables
should be blanched before freezing.
Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and
asparagus do not require blanching.
Literature on freezing and blanching
can be found in bookshops.
Note
Keep food which is to be frozen away
from food which is already frozen.
