WARNING
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
may lead to an explosion.
■ Do not store explosive substances
such as aerosol cans with a flamma
-
ble propellant in this appliance, as
they can form ignitable gas-air mix
-
tures.
CAUTION
Health hazard!
Incorrect handling, insufficient cool
-
ing or overlapping items can spoil the
stored food. This could lead to a risk of
food poisoning when consumed!
■ In particular, pack raw meat and fish
carefully to ensure that adjacent
food cannot be contaminated by sal
-
monella or similar bacteria.
■ Abide by the storage times recom
-
mended by food manufacturers.
■ Note that the shelf life of the frozen
food may be shortened due to a rise
in the temperature inside the freezer
(from defrosting, cleaning or power
failure).
■ If there is a mains failure, the frozen
food may remain sufficiently cold
for a few hours. In case of prolonged
mains failure or a longer malfunction
of the appliance, remove the stored
frozen food from the appliance and
keep it in a sufficiently cool place or
in another refrigerating appliance.
The maximum storage time in the
event of a fault is shown on the appli
-
ance’s type plate.
■ After a malfunction, check wheth-
er the stored food is still edible. Con-
sume thawed and defrosted foods
immediately; do not refreeze.
Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
may lead to injuries. Risk of burns
caused by low temperatures.
■ The food and the inside walls of the
freezer have a very low temperature.
Never touch them with wet hands.
This can cause injury to the skin. Skin
damage can occur even with dry skin.
■ Let ice cubes or ice lollies thaw a lit

tle before eating, do not put into your
mouth straight from the freezer.
• Follow the instructions in this chapter to
store your food over the longest possible
time in the best possible way.
Freezing food
Freezing means reducing the core tempera-
ture of fresh, room-temperature food to fro-
zen as quickly as possible – for best results
‘flash-frozen’. If not cooled quickly enough,
the food will be “killed by frost”, i.e. the struc-
ture will be destroyed. A constant storage
temperature of –18 °C is needed to maintain
the food’s consistency, taste and nutritional
value.
Freezing food has a positive effect on its shelf
life. You can also avoid food waste in this way.
• Set the temperature in the freezer to
–18 °C and fill the fridge in such a way
that the temperature conditions inside are
optimally utilised, guaranteeing optimal
food storage:
– Place food to be frozen in the freezer
drawers (5) and (6).
