Max. freezer capacity
Food should be frozen right through as
quickly as possible. Only in this way are
vitamins, nutritional values, appearance
and taste retained. Therefore, you should
not exceed the maximum freezing
capacity of your appliance.
Freezing capacity
Information about the max. freezing
capacity within 24 hours can be found
on the rating plate.
Note:
Freezing fresh food automatically causes
the refrigerating unit to remain in operation
until all items are frozen all the way
through. This can lead to a drop in
temperature inside the refrigerator
section. Set the temperature selector to a
lower setting.
Freezing food*
Freeze fresh, undamaged food only. Keep
food which is to be frozen away from food
which is already frozen. To prevent food
from losing its flavour or drying out, place
in airtight containers.
