Fast freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible

appearance and flavour.
To prevent an undesirable temperature rise when
placing fresh food in the freezer compartment, switch
on fast freezing several hours beforehand.
If you would like to use the max. freezing capacity,
switch on fast freezing for 6 hours before placing the
fresh produce in the freezer compartment.
You can freeze smaller quantities of food without fast
freezing.
Note
When fast freezing is switched on, increased
operating noises may occur.

Switching on and off

Press "fast" button freezer compartment h.
If the fast freezing has been switched on the button is
lit.
Fast freezing automatically switches off after approx.
1½ days.

Usable capacity

at chapter "Customer service").

Refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage
location for ready meals, cakes and pastries,
preserved food, condensed milk and hard cheese.

Storing food

▯
Store fresh, undamaged food. The quality and
freshness will then be retained for longer.
▯
In the case of ready-made products and bottled
goods, observe the best-before date or use-by
date specified by the manufacturer.
▯
To retain aroma, colour and freshness, pack
or cover food well before placing in the
appliance. This will prevent the transfer
of flavours and the discolouration of plastic parts
in the refrigerator compartment.
▯
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
Note the chill zones in the
refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones.
The coldest zone is on the partition and on the shelf
for large bottles.
Warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Notes
▯
Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest
zone. Cheese can then continue to release its
flavour and the butter will still be easy to spread.
▯
Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat)
in the "cool-fresh" compartment (see chapter
The "cool-fresh" compartment).
