Fast Freezing; Thawing Frozen Food; Interior Fittings - Gaggenau RB 280 Notice D'utilisation

Fast freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible in
order to retain vitamins, nutritional value, appearance
and flavor.
Several hours before placing fresh food in the freezer
compartment, switch on fast 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 you would like to use the max. freezing capacity,
switch on fast freezing for 24 hours before placing the
fresh food in the freezer compartment.
You can place smaller quantities of food (up to 2 kg)
in the top compartment without fast freezing.
Note:
When fast freezing is switched on, increased
operating noises may occur.
Switching on and off
