The freezer compartment is suitable for:
F r e e z e r c o m p a r t m e n t

The temperature in the freezer

The freezer compartment can be used
to store perishable foods long-term
almost without any noticeable reduction
in quality as the low temperatures
considerably slow down or stop
deterioration. Appearance, flavour and
all valuable ingredients are largely
retained.
The time between putting fresh food in
the freezer compartment and it freezing
solid depends on the following factors:
set temperature
