How to use the freezer

Freezing

In the compartment various fresh food can be frozen at
home. Mind the following to get thorough result.
Freeze fresh and faultless food only.
Before starting freezing set the thermostatic control knob
to position „3" and put the wire shelf in the frozen food
compartment to the highest position. Then put in the
quantity to be frozen, directly on the wire shelf. Freezing
is completed in approx. 24 hours. After 24 hours set the
thermostatic control knob back to „Medium" (2-3) posi-
tion, or leave that in position „3" which is usually ade-
quate for everyday use. It is practical to store the frozen
food on the cooling plate or on each other under the wire
shelf in the frozen food compartment.
Avoid opening the door of frozen food compart-
ment during freezing if possible.
It is not expedient to set the thermostat knob to
higher (e.g. „6") position. Freezing time could be
reduced this way, but the temperature of the fresh food
compartment would go beyond °C permanently, which
would cause freezing to foods and drinks stored there.
Never freeze food in bigger quantity than
given in the „Technical data" at the same time,
otherwise freezing will not be thorough and after dis-
solving various deterioration may take place (losing
taste and aroma, lysing, etc.).
Do not make ice during freezing preferably,
because making ice reduces freezing capacity.

Storing in the freezer

After finishing freezing it is practical to put the frozen food
from the wire shelf in the frozen food compartment to the
place under that making room for a next possible freez-
ing. Adjustment of the wire shelf in the frozen food com-
partment („2" positions) can be used only during storing,
as freezing can be done only at the highest position of the
wire shelf. Food already stored is not damaged by anoth-
er freezing.
(The goods when are put directly on the cooling plate
freeze too fast!)
Do not forget to keep to the storage time given on
the packaging of frozen products if you buy them
frozen. To store home-frozen products see the storing
instructions placed in the door of the freezer. Symbols
signify the various foods, numbers mean maximum stor-
ing time given in months.
It is safe to store quick-frozen, frozen foods only if
they have not dissolved even for a short time until
placing them into the freezer.
If the deep-frozen food has already dissolved, refreezing
is not recommended, it has to be used up as soon as
possible.

How to make ice cubes

To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice cube tray with
water and put it to the frozen food compartment. Wetting
the bottom of the tray and setting thermostatic control
knob to maximum position can shorten preparing time.
After finishing do not forget to reset the thermostatic con-
trol to the suitable position.
Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the tray under run-
ning water then twist or hit it. If the ice tray freezes to the
compartment, avoid using metal tools or knife to take it out
as the cooling system can be damaged.
Some useful information and
advice
The variable shelves are worth paying attention to,
which increases the usability of the fresh food com-
partment considerably. Rearranging the shelves is
also possible when the door is open at an angle of
90°.
After opening and closing the door of freezer vacuum
will rise inside the appliance because of the low tem-
perature. So wait 2-3 minutes after closing the door
- if you want to open it again - while inner pressure
equalises.
Take care of operating the freezer at a position of
thermostatic control so that the inside temperature
can never go above -18 °C, since temperature high-
er than this can deteriorate frozen foods.
It is practical to make sure of faultless operation of
the appliance daily so as to notice possible failure in
time and prevent deterioration of frozen foods.

Hints and ideas

In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given about
how to use the appliance to reach maximum energy sav-
ing and there is environmental information about the
appliance as well.

How to save energy

The colder the ambient temperature of the appliance
is the less energy it uses.
Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny place and near
anything that gives off heat.
Be sure that the condenser and the compressor are
well ventilated. Do not cover the sections where ven-
tilation is.
Wrap products in tightly closing dishes or cling film to
avoid building up unnecessary frost.
Do not leave the door open longer than necessary
and avoid unnecessary openings.
Put foods into the appliance only in a closed dish.
Put warm foods into the appliance only when they are
at room temperature.
Keep the condenser clean.
