Packing frozen food
Pack food so that it is airtight to prevent it from losing
its flavour or drying out.
1. Store food in its packaging.
2. Press out any air.
3. Close the packaging tightly.
4. Label packaging with its contents and date of
freezing.
The following are suitable as packaging:
Plastic film, polyethylene hose film, aluminium foil,
freezer bags.
You will find these products at your specialist dealer.
The following are not suitable as packaging:
Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane,
rubbish bags and used shopping bags.
The following are suitable for sealing packaging:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, pack-twines, cold-resistant
scotch tape, or similar.
Polyethylene bags and hose film can be fused closed
using a bag sealer.
Storage life of frozen foods
The storage life depends on the type of food.
At a temperature of -18 °C:
ʋ Fish, sausages, prepared dishes, baked goods:
Up to 6 months.
ʋ Cheese, poultry, meat:
Up to 8 months.
ʋ Vegetables, fruit:
Up to 12 months.
Defrosting frozen food
You can choose between the following options,
depending on the type of food and its intended use:
ʋ at ambient temperature
ʋ in the fridge
ʋ in an electric oven, with/without hot air convection
ʋ In the microwave oven.
m Caution
Do not refreeze defrosted food. It can only be refrozen
after it has been made into a ready-to-eat meal (cooked
or roasted).
Do not continue to use the complete max. storage time
for the frozen food.
Ice and water dispenser
Any of the following can be dispensed, as required:
ʋ chilled water
ʋ crushed ice
ʋ ice cubes
m Warning
Never reach into the ice cube dispenser spout.
There is a risk of injury.
m Caution
Never place bottles or food in the ice cube container in
an attempt to cool them quickly. You could block and/
or damage the ice-maker.
Points to observe when switching on for
the first time
The ice and water dispenser only functions when the
appliance is connected to the water supply.
After the appliance is first switched on, it takes roughly
24 hours for the first portion of ice cubes to be
produced.
When the water supply is first connected, there are still
air bubbles in the pipes.
Draw off and throw away the drinking water until there
are no longer any air bubbles in the water dispensed.
Discard the first 5 glasses of water.
When the ice-cube maker is used for the first time, for
hygiene reasons the first 30 - 40 ice cubes should not
be used.
Notes on using the ice-maker
Once the freezer compartment has reached its freezing
temperature, water is fed into the ice-maker and freezes
into ice cubes inside. When ready, the ice cubes are
automatically discharged into the ice-cube container.
After the appliance is first switched on, it takes roughly
24 hours for the first portion of ice cubes to be
produced.
Sometimes, the ice cubes may stick together. They
usually come apart of their own accord when fed to the
dispenser spout.
When the ice-cube container is full, the ice-maker
switches off automatically.
The ice-maker can make roughly 140 ice cubes in a
period of 24 hours depending on the ambient
temperature and the appliance setting.
When ice cubes are being made, the sound of the
water valve humming, the water running into the ice tray
and the ice cubes dropping into the container can be
heard.
