u Press the setting button, freezer compartment Fig. 3 (6) the
number of times needed until the required temperature
shines in the LED display.
Note

value within a small temperature range (e.g.: between
-15 °C and -18 °C). The LED of the next lower temperature
range then shines in the temperature display.
5.3.5 SuperFrost
With this function you can freeze fresh food quickly
through to the core. The appliance operates with
maximum refrigeration. The noise of the refrigeration
unit may be temporarily louder as a result.
In addition, frozen food already in storage is given a “cold
reserve”. The food stays frozen longer as a result when you
defrost the appliance.
The maximum amount of fresh food which can be frozen in 24
h is indicated on the type plate under “freezing capacity ... kg/
24h”. This amount varies according to the model and climate
rating.
You have to activate SuperFrost in good time, depending on
how much fresh food is to be frozen: about 6 hours before
placing the food inside in case of small amounts and about 24
hours in advance in case of the maximum amount of food to be
frozen.
Wrap produce and spread it out as far as possible. Do not
allow produce to be frozen to touch produce that is already
frozen to prevent the latter thawing.
You do not have to activate SuperFrost in the following cases:
- when placing frozen food in the freezer
- when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily
Freezing with SuperFrost
u
Briefly press the SuperFrost button Fig. 3 (7) .
w The SuperFrost button shines.
w The freezer temperature drops, the appliance operates with
the maximum refrigerating capacity.
Note
u Pressing the SuperFrost button can cause the compressor
to switch on up to 8 minutes later, thanks to the integrated
switch-on delay. This delay increases the service life of the
compressor.
In case of a small amount of food to be frozen:
u wait approx. 6 h.
u Place wrapped produce in the bottom drawers.
In case of the maximum amount of food to be frozen (see
type plate):
u wait about 24 h.
u Remove bottom drawer and place produce directly in the
appliance so that it touches the base or sides.
w SuperFrost is automatically deactivated after about 65 h.
w The SuperFrost button extinguishes once freezing is
completed.
u Place produce in the drawer and then push the drawer back
in again.
w The appliance continues to operate in the energy-saving,
normal mode.
5.3.6 Drawers
u To store frozen food directly on the shelves: pull the drawer
forwards and lift it out.
