t
storing frozen food
■
making ice cubes

freezing food
■
The temperature can be set from
–16 °C ... –24 °C.
The freezer compartment can be used
to store perishable foods long-term
almost without any noticeable reduction
in quality, as the low temperatures
considerably slow down or stop
deterioration. Appearance, flavour and
all valuable ingredients are largely
retained.
Long-term storage of food should be at
–18 °C or lower.
The time between putting fresh food in
the freezer compartment and it freezing
solid depends on the following factors:
set temperature
■
type of food
■
amount of food in the freezer
■
compartment
quantity and type of storage
■
Freezing smaller amounts of
food
Place the food:
in the top frozen food container
■
starting from the outer right
■
over a wide area
■
The food will freeze most quickly this
way.
