4.1 Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, before putting the products in
the compartment let the appliance run at
least 2 hours with the FROSTMATIC
function turned on. The freezer drawers
ensure that it is quick and easy to find
the food package you want. If large
quantities of food are to be stored,
remove all drawers except for the bottom
drawer which needs to be in place to
provide good air circulation. On all
shelves it is possible to place food that
protrude until 15 mm from the door.
WARNING!
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due
to a power failure, if the
power has been off for
longer that the value shown
in the technical
characteristics chart under
"rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed
quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
