for short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob between the minimum and
medium position.
3-4:
for long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob to the medium position.

for freezing fresh food. The appliance will run for colder temperatures.
Set the thermostat on setting 3. The appliance now cools continuously until the set temperature has been reached. Do
not place anything in the refrigerator until the set temperature is reached. This usually takes 2 or 3 hours. Then set the
thermostat at the desired setting and place food into the refrigerator.
Attention:
The ambient air temperature, how often the door is opened and the position of the appliance can affect the internal
temperature. These factors must be taken into account when setting the thermostat.

food storage in the appliance
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time on the
packaging and for making ice cubes.
• Do not freeze too large an amount of food at one time; the faster the food is frozen, the longer is preserves its qualities.
• Wrap and seal fresh food properly. The packaging should be air tight and shouldn't leak.
• Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after purchase. Make sure that it doesn't defrost
during transport.
• The length of time you can keep food depends very much on the quality of the food.
• Always mark the date and the content on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time.
• Do not store glass bottles or containers with liquids in the freezer which will freeze. The freezing may cause the bottles to
break. Highly carbonated drinks can even explode. Never keep lemonade, fruit juice, beer, wine, champagne, etc. in the
freezer.
• Once the food is thawed, it must not be refrozen: you must cook it as quickly as possible in order to consume or to freeze
again.
