ter. Then place the tray flat in the freezer for a few
hours.

Storing food
NOTE: Recommendation!
To guarantee that the temperature is low enough,
you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before
initial loading foods.
CAUTION:
Always pay attention to the storage instructions on
the sales packaging.
The 4-star freezer allows you to store frozen food at
a temperature of -18°C or colder for several months;
to prepare ice cubes and to freeze fresh food.
To avoid contamination of food, respect the following
instructions:
• Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact
with food and accessible drainage systems (see
“Cleaning and maintenance”
).
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in
the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or
drip onto other food.
• Two-star frozen-food compartments are suit-
able for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making
ice-cream and making ice-cubes.
• One- , two- or three-star compart-
ments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh
food.
• If the appliance is out of use for long period, fol-
low the instructions under
"Switching off"
.
Freezing
• CAUTION, refer to the enclosed product data
sheet for the maximum amount of food in kg that
can be frozen in 24 hours. If the quantity is great-
er, the quality of the freezing and the already fro-
zen food will be affected.
• Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to
the core. During freezing operation, the tempera-
ture of fresh food should be lowered as fast as
possible to keep formation of ice crystals as little
as possible and not to damage the food structure.
• Keep a space between the individual items, so
that the cold air can circulate.
Storing frozen food
• Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in
accordance with the manufacturer’s data. Make
sure the food items do not defrost after purchase
and to store them as fast as possible in the freez-
er.
• It is possible to store food for longer periods of
time. The period might vary, so observe the stor-
age information on the packaging of the mer-
chandise.
