Storing frozen food

Your freezer is suitable for the long-term
storage of commercially frozen foods and also
can be used to freeze and store fresh food.
If there is a power failure, do not open the
door. Frozen food should not be affected if the
failure lasts for less than 16 hrs. If the failure
is longer, then the food should be checked
and either eaten immediately or cooked and
then re-frozen.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with water and
place it in the frozen food compartment.
Loosen frozen trays with a spoon handle or a
similar implement. Never use sharp-edged
objects such as knives or forks.

Instruction Manual

Freezing fresh food

Please observe the following instructions to
obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one
time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your
appliance in 24 h.
Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the refrigeration machine
to operate continuously until the food is frozen
solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive
cooling of the refrigeration compartment.
When freezing fresh food, keep the thermostat
knob at medium position. Small quantities of
food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be frozen without
adjusting the temperature control knob.
Take special care not to mix already frozen
food and fresh food.
Defrosting
A) Fridge compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically.
The defrost water runs to the drain tube via a
collection container at the back of the appliance
(Fig. 3).
During defrosting, water droplets may form at
the back of the fridge compartment where a
concealed evaporator is located. Some droplets
may remain on the liner and refreeze when
defrosting is completed. Do not use pointed
or sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks
to remove the droplets which have refrozen.
If, at any time, the defrost water does not drain
from the collection channel, check that no food
particles have blocked the drain tube. The
drain tube can be cleared with a pipe-cleaner
or similar implement.

Defrosting is very straightforward and without
