Freezer compartment m WARNING m Explosion Hazard Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire. The freezer compartment temperature can be set from 7 °F (-14 °C) to -15 °F (-26 °C). We recommend a setting of 0 °F (-18 °C). Use the freezer compartment: - For storing deep-frozen food. - To freeze food. - To make ice cubes. Ensure that the freezer compartment door is always closed. If the door is open, the frozen food will thaw. The freezer compartment will become covered in thick ice. Also: Energy will be lost due to high power consumption. When the freezer compartment door is closed, a low pressure occurs, causing a sucking noise. Wait two to three minutes until the low pressure has adjusted itself. Features of the freezer compartment (not all models) Freezer calendar 2 - 6 Months 4 - 8 Months 6 -12 Months The figures next to the symbols indicate the permitted storage period of the produce in months. When purchasing frozen produce, observe the date of manufacture or sell-by date. Ice block If a power failure or malfunction occurs, the ice blocks can be used to slow down the thawing process. The longest storage time is obtained by placing the ice block directly on the food in the top compartment. The ice blocks can also be used to cool food temporarily, e.g. in a cold bag. Freezing food Freeze fresh, undamaged food only. Keep food which is to be frozen away from food which is already frozen. To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place in airtight containers.
