Freezing
Warning! � Before foods are frozen, the actual temperature in the freezer compartment must be -18 °C or colder. � Please observe indicated freezing capacity on the rating plate. The freezing capacity represents the maximum amount of fresh goods that can be frozen within 24 hours. If you freeze goods on several days, one after the other, freeze amounts equal to 2/3 to 3/4 of the capacity indicated on the rating plate. � Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time. 0 1. For freezing the maximum capacity press the FROSTMATIC button 24 hours prior to freezing, or 4 to 6 hours for smaller quantities. Yellow indicator lights up.

The FROSTMATIC button need not be pressed for freezing of small quantities of up to 3 kg. 2. All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods occurs. Caution! Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands. Hands can freeze to the goods. 3. Place packaged goods in the drawers. Unfrozen goods may not come into contact with already frozen goods, otherwise the frozen goods may start to thaw. Tips: � The following are suitable for the packaging of frozen goods: � freezer bags and polyethylene wraps; � plastic containers for frozen foods; � extra-thick aluminium foil � The following are suitable for sealing bags and wraps: plastic clips, rubber bands or adhesive tape. � Press air out of bags and wraps before sealing, because air encourages drying of frozen goods. � Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly. � Do not fill plastic containers for frozen foods to the brim with liquid or paste-like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.
