Storing in the freezer
Once the freezing process has been completed all
compartments can be used for storage but if you require
to freeze further quantities of food move the recently
frozen foods to the upper compartments.
If you are storing large quantities of food you can remove
the top two baskets from the freezer and store foods
directly on the shelves. Do not remove the bottom
freezing compartment.
For supermarket pre-frozen foods be aware of the
use by date on the packaging at all times and use
the foods prior to that date.
It is not safe to re-freeze foods that were
previously frozen and have defrosted; you are
advised to use the foods as soon as possible or to cook
the foods and then re-freeze. If ice cream has defrosted
children will help out with this problem.
How to make ice cubes
To make ice cubes fill the ice cube tray with fresh or
filtered water and place the tray into the frozen food
compartment. Set the thermostat control to maximum
to reduce the freezing time. Re-set the thermostat
control to normal running.To release the ice cubes hold
the tray under running water then twist the tray.
Using the freezer
Freezing
The freezer is suitable for freezing fresh or cooked foods
prepared in the home. It is also suitable for freezing foods
purchased from supermarkets; be aware and follow the
freezing instructions on the packaging. Follow the guidelines
for the freezer below.
Prior to home food preparation using the function button
(E) press once or twice to select super freezing mode (the
super freezing mode symbol will appear on the display).The
freezer will now start to lower the temperature to a save
freezing temperature.
Remove previously frozen foods from the bottom freezing
compartments to the two storage compartments above and
place the fresh foods in the freezing compartment; ensuring
there is space around the foods for the air to circulate.
Run the freezer on super freezing mode for 24 hours.
To cancel the super freezing mode press the function button
(E) to returnthe freezer to normal mode. The freezer will
automatically return to normalmode after approximately 50
hours'
Never freeze food in larger quantities than
stated in the technical specifications. the foods
will not be safely and thoroughly frozen and after
defrosting, deterioration of the food will take place
resulting in a loss of taste, structure and aroma.
Do not make ice cubes during freezing; it will reduce
the freezing capacity of the freezer.
