2. If equipped with a SUPER FREEZE SWITCH turn
it on (the yellow light will also come on).
3. Do not open the door of the freezer compartment
for about 4 hours, or for as long as the red light is
on, so that the temperature in the freezer can drop
to the necessary level.
4. You can now fill the freezer with any amount of
frozen food (food which has been bought ready
frozen]. The SUPER FREEZE SWITCH should be
switched off again after 24 hours at the latest.

Warning)
■ Do not store any bottled liquids in the freezer.
Liquids expand when frozen and the bottle may
explode.
■ Never keep explosive substances or aerosol cans
with inflammable propellants such as butane,
propane, pentane etc. in the freezer. Any escaping
gases could be ignited by electrical components.
Such aerosol cans can be recognised by the list of
contents or by the inflammable symbols printed on
the can itself.
■ When storing ready frozen food, you must follow
the manufacturer's instructions on the food
packaging.
■ Deep frozen ice-cream and ice-lollies must not be
eaten until a few minutes after being taken from
the freezer to avoid injury to lips and tongue
(danger of
skin detachment]. For the same reason, avoid
touching the frozen insidewalls of the freezer with
wet hands.
■ Defrosted or slightly frozen products should be
used immediately. As a rule, such products are
not suitable for re-freezing.
■ Packaging should be dry to avoid things freezing
together.
■ Ready frozen foods should be stored so that they
do not come into contact with newly added foods
which have not yet frozen.
Instruction for use
8 Freezing/ Storing besh food
Almost all fresh products are suitable for freezing and
storing in the freezer.
For the most common of these products, a storage
guide with details of acceptable storage times and the
most suitable packaging is provided, (see "Food
storage guide "at the back of this user manual].
Label fresh products clearly as they are not easy to
identify when deep frozen in transparent freezer-bags.
We recommend using commercially available labels
for fr^ozen foods.
Pack fresh products in portions suitable for your needs
to avoid defrosting quantities that are too big for you to
use up in one day.
Label the portions with at least the following
information;
■ Product name (e.g. beef fillet)
■ Weight of the Portion
■ Quantity (number of p/ecesj
■ Freezing date
■ Use by date (see "Food storage guide")
Then continue as follows:
a] Berries, fruits with peel, herbs etc. should be laid
out loose for freezing on the freezing tray (not all
models are supplied with this] in the upper part of
the freezer and then put into freezer bags after
about 12 hours. Store the filled freezer bags in one
of the available drawers.
Fresh food should be placed in the top drawer and
moved down to one of the lower drawers after
approx. 24 hours.
Avoid putting hash foods directiy in contact with
deep frozen food. The deep frozen food could
defrost and may not last out the normal storage
time.
b] Within a period of 24 hours fill up the freezer only
with the adequate quantities of fresh food for the
freezing capacity of your freezer.
Consult the Information on the rating plate (XX
kg/24h).
c] If your freezer is equipped with a SURER FREEZE
SWITCH, switch it on (the yellow light will come
on) this is not strictly necessary when filling up
with already frozen foods (e.g. deep frozen foods).
WARNING! Switch off the SUPER FREEZE
SWITCH after 24 hours at the latest (the yellow
light will go off).
d] Set the temperature dial to a medium to high
setting.
e] Keep the temperature in the freezing compartment
under control preferably by placing a suitable
thermometer with a scale range of up to -26'’C.
The storage temperature must always be at
least - 18**C.
Resiling the heezer comparhnent with fres/i (not
frozen) food
Make sure that you wait at least 24 hours before
refilling with fresh food, in adequate quantities for the
freezing capacity of your freezer (XX kgf24h).
