AEG 2170-4 Operating Instructions Manual

Switching the Appliance Off

0 To switch off, turn the temperature regulator to position "0". The green
pilot light goes out.
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:
0 Turn the temperature regulator to position "0". The green pilot light
goes out.
0 Unplug or switch off at the mains supply.
0 Defrost freezer compartment and clean thoroughly (see section:
"Maintenance and Cleaning").
0 Leave door open after defrosting to avoid accumulation of odours.

Freezing

Except for the bottom drawer, which serves for storage purposes, all
compartments and drawers are suited for freezing.
Important!
• The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18 °C or col-
der before freezing food.
• Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The
freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be
frozen within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food several
days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4
of that on the rating plate.
• Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will
cause increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.
• Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into
meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.
0 When freezing maximum capacity press the fast freeze button 24 hours
prior to freezing, or 4 to 6 hours for smaller quantities. Yellow indicator
light illuminates.
The fast freeze button need not be pressed for freezing of small quanti-
3
ties of up to 3 kg.
0 All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not
dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of
other frozen goods occurs.
