Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could
stick to the food and cause skin abrasions.
Place the packed food in the drawers.
Place food to be frozen in the
bottom drawer (4) of the freezer as this is the coldest part.
Unfrozen food must not touch items already frozen, otherwise the
frozen food could begin to defrost. Freezer drawers (1), (2) and (3)
should only be used for storage of frozen food
so that the bottom
drawer can be used for a further freezing operation.
Place frozen foods in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible.
Once the required storage temperate has been reached, press the
FROSTMATIC button again. The yellow light goes out.
Tips:
• The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods:
– freezer bags and polyethylene wraps;
– special cans for frozen goods;
– extra–thick aluminium foil.
• The following are suitable for sealing bags and wrap: plastic clips,
rubber bands or tape.
• Smooth the air out of the bag before sealing; air makes it easier for
the frozen food to dry out.
• Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly.
• Do not fill cans for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or
paste–like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.

Storage Goods Symbols/Freezing Calendar
• The symbols on the drawers show
different types of frozen goods.
• The numbers indicate storage times
in months for the appropriate types
of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated
storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-
treating before freezing. The lower value applies to foods with high
fat content.
