In order for it to maintain its nutritional
value, vitamins and appearance, it is
necessary to freeze the middle of the
food as fast as possible. For this reason,
the appliance’s maximum freezing
capacity should not be exceeded.
In the event of needing to freeze a large
quantity of foodstuff, all the freezer
drawers can be removed (except the
lowermost drawer) and the food can be
stacked on the freezer shelves. To
remove the drawers, pull them out to
their limit and then tilt them upwards.
When freezing products in the freezer
drawers, reduce the appliance’s freezing
capacity slightly.
If you wish to keep already-frozen food
in the freezer, turn the “super” function
on several hours before putting the fresh
food in the freezer.
Storing frozen products
• In order not to obstruct the free
circulation of air inside the appliance,
make sure that all the freezer drawers
in the compartment are pushed in to
the limit.
