Note:
The acoustic alarm will stop:

the "Quick freeze on/off switch")
Freezing
Prepare the various foods properly and then freeze
them always in the freezing compartment.
The quick freeze function ("FROSTMATIC") is used to
achieve the quick freezing of fresh food and to prevent
the already frozen goods from undesirable warming
up.
For using the quick freeze function, press the quick
freeze on/off switch (J) for 2-3 seconds; in the case of
small and great food volumes you should do it approx.
4 and 24 hours, respectively, before you want to freeze
the fresh food.
The yellow indicator (H) will light up and the
compressor will operate continuously until the
product reaches the freezing temperature.
Once the food is completely frozen (it may take up to
24 hours) you can manually switch off the quick freeze
function by pressing the switch (J) for 2-3 seconds. If
not switched off manually, the quick freeze function
will be automatically switched off 48 hours later. The
yellow indicator (H) will also go out.
Freezing and storage of frozen
foods
As freezing with "No-Frost" technology is quicker,
the foods frozen this way will preserve their original
form, nutritional value and taste even after thawing.
Place the foods to be frozen in the second part of
the product.
For the best operation of the product, make sure
that the frozen foods will not touch the ventilator
cover or the ventilator mounted on the backside of
the product.
For the best results it is recommended to distribute the
frozen foods evenly in the boxes.
If you make small portions of the foods, the freezing
process will take less time and subsequent thawing will be
possible in small portions also.
In order to avoid freezing burns, do not touch ice-creams
immediately after they have been taken out from the
freezer.
It is recommended to state the freezing date on the
package so that later you can check the storage duration.
The time of transportation from the seller to the
consumer must be as short as possible.
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used,
can be thawed in a fridge or at room temperature,
depending on the time available. Small food items
may even be cooked from frozen, in this case
cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be eaten as soon as
possible, or thrown away.Alternatively, if the food is
uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it
can be cooked and then refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must never be
refrozen.
How to make ice cubes
Fill the supplied ice cube tray ¾ full with water and place
in the freezer compartment. Turning up the thermostat
control will speed up the freezing process, but remember
to turn the thermostat control back to its original
position.
To release the ice cubes, twist the tray along its length.
Do not use sharp or pointed items to remove a frozen
ice cube tray from the freezer compartment.
