Storing food
NOTE: Recommendation!
To guarantee that the temperature is low enough,
you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before
initial loading foods.
CAUTION:
Always pay attention to the storage instructions on
the sales packaging.
The 4-star freezer allows you to store frozen food at
a temperature of -18°C or colder for several months;
to prepare ice cubes and to freeze fresh food.
To avoid contamination of food, respect the following
instructions:
• Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the com-
partments of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact
with food and accessible drainage systems (see
"Cleaning and Maintenance"
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in
the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or
drip onto other food.

Freezing
• CAUTION, refer to the enclosed product data
sheet for the maximum amount of food in kg that
can be frozen in 24 hours. If the quantity is
greater, the quality of the freezing and the already
frozen food will be affected.
• Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to
the core. During freezing operation, the tempera-
ture of fresh food should be lowered as fast as
possible to keep formation of ice crystals as little
as possible and not to damage the food structure.
• Keep a space between the individual items, so
that the cold air can circulate.
Storing frozen food
• Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in
accordance with the manufacturer's data. Make
sure the food items do not defrost after purchase
and to store them as fast as possible in the
freezer.
• It is possible to store food for longer periods of
time. The period might vary, so observe the stor-
age information on the packaging of the merchan-
dise.
General safety precautions
• Do not store bottles or cans. These can break
when the contents freeze – or even explode if
they contain carbonated drinks.
• Once products have been defrosted halfway or
completely, they should be consumed as soon as
possible and should not be frozen again, except
they have been processed to a ready meal.
• Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not eat ice
cream directly from the freezer. The cold can
cause injuries in the oral cavity.
• Touching metal parts inside the unit can cause
symptoms like burns if the skin is very sensitive.
• Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.
