13.1 Power failure
During a power failure, the temperat-
ure in the appliance rises; this re-
duces the storage time and the qual-
ity of the frozen food.
On the website for your appliance,
the technical data provides you with
the storage times for frozen food in
the event of a fault.
Notes
¡ Open the appliance as little as
possible during a power failure
and do not place any other food in
the appliance.
¡ Check the quality of the food
immediately after a power failure.
– Dispose of any frozen food that
has defrosted and is hotter than
5°C.
– Cook or fry slightly thawed
frozen food, and then either con-
sume it or freeze it again.

test which displays faults that can be
eliminated by your customer service.
