Freezing and storing frozen food

You an use your freezer for freezing fresh food.

Important!

• The temperature in the freezer ompartment must be –18 °C or older

before freezing food.

Energy Saving Tips

• Do not install the applian e near ookers, radiators or other sour es of

warmth. High ambient temperatures ause longer, more frequent opera-

tion of the ompressor.

• Ensure suffi ient air ir ulation and exhaust at the applian e base and at

the ba k wall of the applian e. Never over air vent openings.

• Do not pla e warm foods into the applian e. Allow warm foods to ool

first.

• Only leave door open as long as ne essary.

• Do not set temperature any older than ne essary.

• Put frozen food in the fridge to defrost. The old in the frozen food will

then be used to ool the fridge.

• Always keep the heat emitting ondenser, the metal grille on the rear wall

of your applian e, lean.

• The applian e must be dry before it is pla ed ba k into servi e.

Attention!

• Ethereal oils and organi solvents an atta k plasti parts, e.g.

– lemon jui e or the jui e from orange peals;

– butyri a id;

– leansers whi h ontain a eti a id.

Do not allow su h substan es to ome into onta t with applian e parts.

• Do not use any abrasive leansers.

1. Remove frozen food and the food from the refrigerator. Wrap frozen food

in several layers of newspaper. Store it in a ool pla e, well overed.

2.. Swit h the applian e off and remove the plug from the mains, or swit h off

or turn out the ir uit breaker or fuse.

3. Clean the applian e and the interior a essories with a loth and lukewarm

water. Commer ially available dish washing detergents may also be used.

4. After leaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry.

A umulation of dust at the ondenser in reases energy onsumption. For

this reason arefully lean the ondenser at the ba k of the applian e on e

ACTUAL temperature means:

The temperature display indi ates the urrent temperature inside the freezer.

The ACTUAL temperature is indi ated with illuminated numbers.

Temperature display

The temperature display an indi ate several pie es of information.

• During normal operation, the temperature urrently present in the freezer

(ACTUAL temperature) is displayed.

• When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indi ates the

freezer temperature urrently set (DESIRED temperature).

Starting Up - Setting the Temperature

1. Plug the mains plug into the mains so ket.

2. If the display is OFF, press ON/OFF button. The green mains pilot indi ator

illuminates. The alarm light flashes and the buzzer sounds.

3. Press the “I” button to stop the buzzer, the light still flashes sin e the tem-

peratur is rea hed.

4. Press either the “C“ or “E“ button. The temperature display swit hes over and

the DESIRED temperature urrently set flashes on the temperature display.

5. Set the required temperature by pressing the “C“ or “E“ buttons (see se tion

"Temperature setting buttons"). The temperature display will immediately

show the hanged setting. Ea h time the button is pressed the temperatu-

re is adjusted by 1 °C.

From a food safety point of view -18 °C should be onsidered suffi iently

old for storing food in the freezer.

Ice pack

There are two i e pa ks in one drawer of the freezer.

In the event of a power failure or malfun tion, the i e pa k will lengthen

the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to be ome too warm by

several hours. The i e pa k an only fulfil this task optimally if it is pla ed in

the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food. You an use the

i e pa k for ooling old bags.

FROSTM TIC
