The freezing capacity represents the maximum amount of fresh goods that can be frozen within 24 hours. If you freeze goods on several days, one after the other, freeze amounts equal to 2/3 to 3/4 of the capacity indicated on the rating plate. · When freezing large quantities of food, place the frozen freezing accumulation block at the front into the top drawer in the freezing compartment. · Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time. 0 For freezing the maximum capacity press the FAST FREEZE button 24 hours prior to freezing, or 4 to 6 hours for smaller quantities. The FAST FREEZE button need not be pressed for freezing of small quantities of up to 3 kg. 0 All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods occurs.

The task of the compressor is to draw in vaporised refrigerant from the evaporator, to compress it, and to pass it on to the condenser. The refrigerant compressed in the compressor is liquefied in the condenser. During this process, heat is released to the surrounding air at the surface of the condenser. [. . . ]
