u
Food once thawed should be re-frozen only in exceptional
cases.
5.4.3 Setting the temperature
The temperature can be set between the first point (warmest
temperature, lowest refrigerating capacity) and max. (coldest
temperature, highest refrigerating capacity), the recommended
temperature is-18 °C i.e. the 3rd point.
u
Turn the temperature control of the freezer compartment
Fig. 3 (1)
with a coin until the temperature wanted lights up
in the temperature display.
The temperature is dependent on the following factors:
the frequency of door opening
the room temperature of the installation site
the type, temperature and quantity of frozen food
u
You may have to readjust the temperature, depending on
the temperature wanted.
The temperature can be set slightly colder within a temperature
range, e. g. –15 °C to –18 °C or between two control settings.
u
If required, slowly turn the temperature control further.
w
The lit bar of the temperature range, e. g. –18 °C flashes
briefly. The temperature within the temperature range was
set colder.
5.4.4 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.
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

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 top drawers.
In case of the maximum amount of food to be frozen (see
type plate):
u
wait about 24 h.
u
Remove top drawers and place produce directly on the top
shelves.
w
SuperFrost is automatically deactivated after about 65 h.
w
The temperature range set for the normal mode shines in
the temperature display.
u
Place produce in the drawers and push the latter back in
again.
w
The appliance continues to operate in the energy-saving,
normal mode.
5.4.5 Drawers
Note
The energy consumption increases and the cooling perform-
ance decreases if there is insufficient ventilation.
For appliances with NoFrost:
u
Leave the bottom drawer in the appliance!
u
Always keep the air slits of the fan free at the rear wall!
u
To store frozen food directly on the shelves: pull the drawer
forwards and lift it out.
5.4.6 Shelves

ucts can be frozen in one piece
and prepared.
