Maximum capacity / Stacking limit

Fig. 10

To be able to store larger quantities or bulky products for freezing

you can remove all the storage baskets. The appliance will still

function safely if used in this way.

Do not stack the products higher than the lower edge of the plastic

frame.

Tip: To freeze fresh foods use the small freezing compartment on

the right of the dividing partition (also see section on "Interior

accessories/ dividing partition"). This enables you to separate al-

ready frozen foods from fresh foods. Always make sure already

frozen goods cannot defrost by coming into contact with fresh prod-

ucts. If the freezing compartment is too small you can freeze part

of the products in the large storage section on the left of the divid-

ing partition.

Attention!

• Before freezing food the temperature in the freezer must be -18

°C or colder.

• Please observe indicated freezing capacity on the serial plate.

The freezing capacity represents the maximum amount of fresh

goods that can be frozen within 24 hours. If you freeze goods on

several days, one after the other, freeze amounts equal to 2/3

to 3/4 of the capacity indicated on the serial plate.

• Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked

into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second

time.

In order to utilize the maximum freezing capacity, keep pressing the

SUPER FROST button for 2 seconds 24 hours before the freezing, in the

case of smaller quantity, 4-6 hours before the freezing.
