At this point, the yellow warning light lights up, the „SP" sign will

appear on the display. (Fig. 11)

The FAST FREEZE button need not be pressed for freezing of small quan-

tities of up to 3 kg.

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.

Caution! Do not touch the frozen foods with wet hands. Hands can

freeze to the goods.

Place the packed food products into the freezer. Ensure they come into

contact with the side walls. Unfrozen goods may not come into contact

with already frozen goods, otherwise the frozen goods may start to thaw.

If more products have to be frozen, keep on the fast freeze switch

otherwise switch the fast freeze function off about 24 hours after in-

serting the food products, for smaller quantities earlier. To do this,

press the FROSTMATIC button again. The yellow FROSTMATIC display

goes out.

If you do not switch off the „SUPER FROST" mode by pressing the „SU-

PER FROST" button, the device will automatically switch back to nor-

mal operation after 48 hours (the yellow warning lamp goes out, the

temperature of the inner space will appear on the display instead of

the „SP" sign). After this, the device will cool the inside compartment

according to the value specified by the temperature controller.

Tips:

• The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods:

– freezer bags and polyethylene wraps;

- special cans for frozen goods;

– extra-thick aluminium foil

• The following are suitable for closing bags and foil: plastic clips,

rubber bands or adhesive tape.

• Before closing press out the air from the bags and foil, as air make

the frozen products dry out more easily and wastes space.

• Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly.

• Do not fill cans for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or paste-like

goods, because liquids expand during freezing.

Note for inspection authorities:

Botch plans for the determination of freezing performance or warm-up

time can be requested directly from the manufacturer.
