Freezing and storing food (depending on model)
35
Before placing food in the appliance
Set the temperature to 4°C or colder
for approx. 4hours before placing
food in the freezer compartment and
switch on the Super cool function.
This helps create a cold reserve in food
which is already stored in the freezer.
Placing frozen goods in the freezer
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause frozen
food to begin to thaw.
To open the freezer compartment,
press the handle upwards and then
pull the door open.
Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
Place the frozen goods flat on the
bottom of the freezer compartment or
in contact with the interior side walls,
so that they freeze through to the
core as quickly as possible.
Approx. 24hours after placing fresh
food in the freezer compartment
The freezing process is complete.
Set the temperature back to the one
you want for the refrigerator section.
We recommend a refrigerator temper-
ature of 4°C.
Storage time for frozen food
The storage life of food is very variable,
even at a constant temperature of
-18°C. Decomposition processes also
take place in frozen food, albeit at a
very reduced speed. For example, fat
can become rancid from contact with
oxygen in the air. This is why lean meat
can be stored approx. twice as long as
fatty meat.
The storage times quoted are guide val-
ues for the storage life of different food
groups in the freezer zone.

Ice cream 2to6
Bread, baked goods 2to6
Cheese 2to4
Fish, oily 1to2
Fish, lean 1to5
Sausage, ham 1to3

Poultry, beef 2to10
Vegetables, fruit 6to18
Herbs 6to10
For standard freezing results, follow the
advice on packaging.
By keeping the freezer compartment at
a constant temperature of -18°C and
taking appropriate hygiene measures
you can maximise the storage life of
your food and avoid food waste.
