Super freezing
Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible
in order to retain vitamins, nutritional value, appearance
and flavour.
Several hours before placing fresh food in the freezer
compartment, switch on super freezing to prevent
an unwanted temperature rise.
As a rule, 4–6 hours is adequate.
This appliance runs constantly and the freezer
compartment drops to a very low temperature.
If the max. freezing capacity is to be used, super
freezing must be switched on for 24 hours before the
fresh produce is placed in the freezer compartment.
Smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg) can be frozen
without "super freezing".
Switching on Super freezing
1. Press the "freeze" button until "freeze" is lit on the
freezer compartment display panel.
2. Press "super" button.
If super freezing is switched on, "super" is indicated on
the display panel.
Switching off Super freezing
1. Press the "freeze" button until "freeze" is lit on the
freezer compartment display panel.
2. Press "super" button.
If Super freezing is switched off, the "super" display
goes out on the display panel.
Note
Super freezing automatically switches off after
approx. 2^ days.

Caution
Do not refreeze thawing or thawed food. Only ready
meals (boiled or fried) may be refrozen.
No longer store the frozen produce for the max.
storage period.
Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage
location for meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs,
ready meals and pastries.
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
Avoid contact between food and rear panel. Otherwise
the air circulation will be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to the rear panel.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones:
Coldest zone is between the vegetable container and
■
the glass shelf situated above.
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat)
in the coldest zone above the vegetable container.
Warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
■
Note
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.
Vegetable container with humidity
controller
To create the optimum storage climate for fruit and
vegetables, you can set the air humidity in the
vegetable container depending on the quantity stored:
smaller quantities of fruit and vegetables – high air
