7 Storing of food
7.1 Correct storage
For an optimal use of the appliance we recommend the precautions:
Only use perfect food.
Do only open the appliance when necessary and only as short as possible.
The freezer is suitable for storage of deep-frozen foods and freezing of fresh,
impeccable food.
Freezing of fresh food
During freezing process temperature of fresh food should be reduced as fast as
possible, so that the formation of ice-crystals can be held as slightly as possible and
the food structure is not damaged.
Should the freezing process take place slowly, ice-crystals are formed and the quality
of food can be impaired.
Therefore, please consider scheduling 2-3 hours’ time in advance, before you
freeze fresh food. Turn the temperature control to highest setting according to model.
Allow warm dishes to cool down first, before placing them in the freezer.
Already cooled down dishes increase energy efficiency.
Put fresh food to be frozen in top freezing drawer/compartment. This means you may
rearrange distribution of deep frozen food occasionally.
Already deep-frozen goods should be stored in one of the lower drawer, so that top
drawer is available for freezing fresh food.
Wherever applicable, frozen goods should be stored in direct contact with the bottom
of the drawer. Leave some space between frozen products for circulation of cold air.
Do not freeze again already thawed foods. Do not withdraw deep-frozen goods with
moist or wet hands: hands could freeze to it. For security reason, freezing
compartments are secured with a stop mechanism. However they can be withdrawn
completely being pulled up and taken out. To re-insert proceed in reverse order.
Storage of deep-frozen goods/freezing fresh food
Appliances with compartments marked with the two-star symbol are suitable for
storing frozen products for a maximum period of a month.
Appliances marked with the three-star symbol are suitable for storing frozen
products, however they are not suitable for freezing fresh food, whereas appliances
marked with the symbol are suitable for both.

KGC320/90-5A++

Possibly escaping gases may ignite by electrical construction units. FIRE
RISK!
Store high proof alcoholic beverages only tightly closed and standing. Please,
consider the indications of the beverage manufacturer
Do not freeze too large amounts of food at once. Quality of food is preserved best
if frozen quickly through up to the core. The temperature during the freezing
process has to be regulated by temperature control in the appliance (only
refrigerator with freezer compartment and refrigerator/freezer).
Do not freeze food that has already been thawed once.
Not suitable for freezing are:
Eggs in eggshell, salad, radish, sour cream and mayonnaise
7.2 Ice cubes
Fill in the ice tray to the level of three quarters with potable water and put it on the
shelf in the upper section of the freezer. Only free frozen ice tray by a stump utensil
(spoon handle). Ice cubes are taken out easier, if the tray is kept under running water
for a short time.

8 Defrosting
Manually
After using your appliance for a certain period of time, building of a layer of ice can
occur. If this layer of ice reaches a thickness of 6 –8 mm, your appliance must be
defrosted and cleaned. Layers of ice increase energy consumption.
Before defrosting regulate temperature on maximum. Stored goods keep cold for a
certain time.
Disconnect the plug before any cleaning or maintenance operation.
Disconnect the plug from the socket
Remove all food and store the goods in a cool room.
Place a container with hot water (80 °C) Caution scalding! Inside the appliance
and leave the doors open. This helps for defrosting quickly.
Do not use mechanical items for removing layer of ice.
Inside the appliance do not use electrical appliances for defrosting, unless the use
of that electrical appliance has been authorised expressively by the manufacturer.

11 Energy savings tips
Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other heat sources. High
ambient temperature causes longer, more frequent operation of the compressor and
lead to increased energy consumption.
Please care for sufficient ventilation on the bottom, side and rear of the appliance.
Never cover ventilation openings.
The drawing shows the right combination of the drawers, crisper and shelves which
can lead to the more energy efficiency. Adjusting combination may result in consuming
more energy. Therefore best is to keep this combination.
All drawers and shelves shall be left in the appliance to keep stable temperature and
save energy.
For having more storage space (e.g. for important goods) you can remove
drawers in the middle. If required, remove upper and lower drawers in last place.
A compartment filled evenly contributes for an optimal use of energy. Avoid empty or
half-empty compartments.
Do not place warm foods into the appliance. Allow warm foods to cool first, before
placing them into the appliance. Already cooled foods increase energy efficiency.
Open the door as short as possible for minimizing lost of coldness inside the
appliance. Doors opened only for a short time and closed correctly decrease energy
required.
Do not set temperature any colder than necessary. This contributes for an optimal use
of energy.
Door seal of the appliance have to be in order, for correct closing of the doors and for
not increasing energy consumption unnecessary.
