STORING AND FREEZING FOOD
Freezing fresh food and storing frozen food
Freezing procedure
Maximum amount of fresh food that may be inserted at once is
specified on the appliance rating plate. If the amount of food to be
frozen exceeds the indicated amount, the quality of freezing will
be inferior; in addition, the quality of the food already frozen will
deteriorate.
• To make use of the entire freezer volume, remove all drawers. Place the food directly on the
shelves and on the freezer bottom.
• Activate the intensive freezing function 24 hours before freezing fresh food. Then, insert the
fresh food into the freezer compartment.
• Make sure the fresh food is not in contact with the food that is already frozen. The most
suitable place for freezing a large amount of fresh food is the upper section of the freezer.
• When freezing smaller amounts of food (1-2 kilograms), activating the boost function is not
required.
• After 24 hours, the food can be moved to other freezer compartments and the freezing
process can be repeated as necessary.
Important warnings on freezing
• Only use the freezer to freeze food appropriate for freezing. Always
use quality and fresh food.
• Select the most suitable packaging for the food and use the
packaging correctly.
• Make sure the packaging is air and water tight so that the food does
not dry out and loose its vitamins.
• Indicate the type of food, amount, and date of freezing on the
packaging.
• It is important that the food freezes quickly. Therefore, smaller
packages are recommended. Refrigerate the food before freezing.
