Freezer compartment

WARNING

Risk of explosion!

Never store products containing

flammable propellants (such as

spray cans) or explosive or easily

combustible substances in the

appliance.

The freezer compartment temperature

can be adjusted between 5 °F (-15

°C) and -7 °F (-22 °C).

We recommend a setting of 0 °F

(-18 °C).

NOTICE

Make sure that the freezer

compartment drawer is always kept

closed. The frozen food will thaw if

the freezer compartment drawer is

open. The freezer compartment will

become covered with thick ice. Also:

Energy will be lost due to high

power consumption.

When the freezer compartment door

is closed, low pressure occurs

inside the compartment.

If you cannot reopen the freezer

compartment door right away, wait

two to three minutes until the low

pressure has adjusted itself.

Use the freezer compartment

to

- store deep-frozen food

- freeze food

- make and store ice cubes.

Freezing food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food

only. Separate food to be frozen from

food that is already frozen. Place food

in airtight containers to prevent it from

losing its flavor or drying out.

How to wrap food correctly:

1. Place food in packaging.

2. Press out any air.

3. Seal the packaging.

4. Label the package with the

contents and date.

Items not suitable for wrapping food:

Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper,

cellophane, garbage bags and used

shopping bags.

Items suitable for wrapping food:

Plastic film, polyethylene blown film,

aluminum foil and freezer cans.

These products can be purchased

from your retailer.

Items suitable for sealing wrapped

food:

Rubber bands, plastic clips, string,

cold-resistant adhesive tape or similar

items.

Bags and polyethylene blown film can

be sealed with a film sealer.

Storage life of frozen food

The storage life depends on the type

of food. At a temperature setting of

0 °F (-18 °C):

S Fish, sausage, ready meals and

cakes and pastries:

up to 6 months

S Cheese, poultry and meat:

up to 8 months

S Fruit and vegetables:

up to 12 months.

Purchasing and

storing deep-frozen

food

Follow these guidelines when

purchasing deep-frozen food:

S Make sure the packaging is not

damaged.

S Check the ”sell by” date.

S The temperature of the

supermarket freezer should be

lower than 0 °F (-18 °C). If not, this

shortens the storage life of the

frozen food.

S Pick up deep-frozen food last when

shopping. Wrap in newspaper or

place in a cold bag and take

home.

S At home, immediately place

deep-frozen food in the freezer

compartment. Use the deep-frozen

food before the ”sell by” date.

Thawing frozen food

CAUTION

Risk of poisoning!

Do not refreeze food that is

beginning to thaw or has already

thawed. The food cannot be

refrozen until it has been prepared

(boiled or fried). Do not store these

refrozen products for the maximum

storage period.

Depending on the type of food and its

intended use, frozen food can be

thawed as follows:

S at room temperature

S in the refrigerator

S in an electric oven with/without

fan-assisted hot air

S in the microwave.
