Packing frozen food
To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out,
place in airtight containers.
1. Place food in packaging.
2. Remove air.
3. Seal the wrapping.
4. Label packaging with contents and date of freezing.
Suitable packaging:

aluminium foil, freezer containers.
These products are available from specialist outlets.
Unsuitable packaging:
Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, bin
liners and used shopping bags.
Items suitable for sealing packaged food:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, string, cold-resistant
adhesive tape, etc.
Bags and tubular film made of polyethylene
can be sealed with a film heat sealer.
Shelf life of frozen food
Depends on the type of food.
At a temperature of -18 °C:
■ Fish, sausage, ready meals and cakes and pastries:
up to 6 months
■ Cheese, poultry and meat:
up to 8 months
■ Vegetables and fruit:
up to 12 months
Super freezing
Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible in
order to retain vitamins, nutritional value, appearance
and flavour.
To prevent an undesirable temperature rise when
placing fresh food in the freezer compartment, switch
on super freezing several hours beforehand. As a rule,
4–6 hours is adequate. 24 hours are necessary when
using the maximum freezer capacity fully.
After 2 days the temperature set before super freezing
is automatically restored.
Switching on
Press super freezing button.
The display panel indicates the symbol SUPER¾ and
the compartment for which the function was switched
on.
Switching off
Press super freezing button.
Thawing frozen food
Depending on the type and application, select
one of the following options:
■ at room temperature
■ in the refrigerator
■ in an electric oven, with/without fan assisted hot-air
■ in the microwave
ã=Caution
Do not refreeze food which is beginning to thaw
or which has already thawed. It can only be refrozen
when it has been used to prepare a ready meal (boiled
or fried).
No longer store the frozen produce for the max.
storage period.
Ice maker
The ice maker makes ice cubes.
The ice maker starts to make ice cubes as soon as
the appliance has reached the set temperature. If
the ice cube container is full, the ice maker
automatically switches off.
The ice maker can make approx. 1.3 kg ice cubes
within 24 hours.
ã=Caution
Do not place bottles or food in the cube container in
order to cool them quickly. The ice maker may block
and be damaged.
