Freezing and storing frozen food

You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.

Important!

• The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18 °C or colder

before freezing food.

• Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The freezing

capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be frozen within

a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food several days in a row,

please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of that on the

rating plate. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen

right through to the core as quickly as possible.

• Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cause

increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.

• Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufacturer.

• Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals)

may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.

• Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temperatures.

There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable

materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill

cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.

• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst when

the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode!

Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer.

Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be stored in the freezer.

• All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not

dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of

other frozen goods occurs.

• Not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely

necessary.

• Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, otherwise the frozen

food could begin to defrost.

Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze

to the food.

1. Place the food to be frozen on the freezer shelf.
