freezing food
The temperature can be set from -16 °C to -26 °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

Maximum freezing capacity

The maximum freezing capacity indicates the quantity of
food that can be frozen solid within 24 hours.
Information on the maximum freezing capacity can be
found on the rating plate.
~ "Getting to know your appliance" on page 23
To use the maximum freezer capacity, switch on fast
freezing 24 hours before placing the fresh food in the
freezer compartment.

2 Take the container out of the freezer compartment
and stack the food directly on the shelves and on
the floor of the freezer compartment.
