Freezing food/Food storage and Making ice
To seal use either of the following:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, string,
cold-resistant adhesive tape or similar.
Plastic sheets and polyethylene bags can
be sealed together with a welding machine
for plastic materials.
Before placing the wrapped food in the
freezer, mark each package to show its
contents and include the date of freezing.
Freezing capacity
Depending on the type of freezer, you can
freeze the following amounts of food at one
time:
SF-26/KGVA/... 4kg./24h.
SF-31/KGVA/... 5kg./24h.
SF-36/KGVA/... 5kg./24h.
Set temperature selector to
freezing
If you are freezing fresh food, set the
temperature selector to a moderate degree
(approximately 4).
When loading the freezer
please observe
That frozen products stored in the freezer
should not be mixed with fresh food.
Freezing the food
If you need to freeze very large quantities of
food, you may find it convenient to remove
the frozen food bins (botton bin may not be
removed) from the unit and to stack your
products directly on the freezing grids. To
remove bins, pull forwards until they catch,
tilt upwards and remove.
Observe that food should not project over
the border line, figure e/A, otherwise the air
circulation within the unit will be adversely
influenced.
Making ice

Ice trays are obtainable at stores which
specialize in this line of business. Fill the
ice-tray three quartes full of water and place
on the freezing tray or in the upper food bin.
The ice-cubes can be easily removed from
the ice-tray by slightly twisting it.
Use the ice container to store ice-cubes so
that you always have an extra supply ready
at hand.
Artificial ice blocks
(Fig. q/30).
This accessory is only included with certain
models, so if yours does not contain one,
disregard this section.
The artificial ice blocks prevent food from
warming-up too quickly in the event of a
power cut or failure.
They are most effective if they are placed in
the upper drawer directly on top of the
products.
The artificial ice blocks may be taken out of
the appliance and used as a practical
means to keep food temporarily cool, e.g. in
an insulated cooling bag.

So as to avoid quality deterioration of the
products it’s important to observe the expiry
date and to consume the products before
this date expires.
The admissible length of storage depends
on the individual type of products.
The figures next to the symbols show the
number of months for which the particular
kind of food may be stored.
In the case of purchased pre-frozen food,
note the date of manufacture or the expiry
date.
