Freezing and storing
frozen food

Buying frozen food

The packaging must not be damaged.

Note the sellĆby date.

The temperature in the supermarket
freezer should be -18 ºC or lower.

Transport the frozen food in an insulating
bag, where possible and put it quickly into
the freezer compartment.

Storing frozen food

To ensure good air circulation in the
appliance, insert the freezer drawers all
the way.

Preferably freeze large quantities of food
in the top compartments, where food
freezes particularly quickly and therefore
also gently.

Do not cover the ventilation slots on the
rear panel with frozen food!

If a large quantity of food is to be placed
in the freezer compartment, the food can
be stacked directly on the glass shelves
and in the bottom of the freezer
compartment. To do this, open all freezer
compartment flaps and take freezer
drawers out of the appliance.

S Pull out the freezer drawers all the way,

lift at the front and remove. Fig. 3.
To insert the freezer drawer with
telescopic rails, the rails must be pulled
out, Fig. 4.

S Open freezer compartment flap, hold

one of the bearing pins and remove flap,
Fig. 5.
