freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food, place it in the

there for 24 hours.
Move frozen food in the storing (lower)
compartments to make room for another

than the value shown in the

under "rising time", the
defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
5.3 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
compartment or at room temperature,
depending on the time available for this
operation.

case, cooking will take longer.
