  • Insert the supplied components to make the most of your appliance.

Foods management

Storing food

WARNING

Risk of fire
Do not use any electrical appliances in the food area of the appliance unless recommended by the manufacturer.

Note
The energy consumption increases and the cooling power goes down if ventilation is not sufficient.

  • Always keep air slots clear.

When storing food, always observe the following:

  • Air vents on the inside rear wall are unobstructed.
  • Air vents on the fan are unobstructed.
  • Food is in sealed packaging.
  • Raw meat and fish are in clean, sealed containers to prevent them coming into contact with or dripping onto other foods.
  • Foods are not stored too closely together, as the air needs to circulate.

Note
Failure to follow these guidelines can lead to food perishing.

Freezer compartment
This provides a dry, frosty storage climate at -18 °C. A frosty climate is great for storing frozen food and frozen goods for several months, making ice cubes and freezing fresh food.

Freezing food
You can freeze as many kilograms of fresh food within 24 hours as indicated on the nameplate (see 9.5 Model plate) under “freezing capacity … kg/24h”.

So that the food is rapidly frozen through to the core, keep to the following quantities per pack:

  • Fruit, vegetables up to 1 kg
  • Meat up to 2.5 kg

Before freezing goods, please make sure of the following:

  • SuperFrost is activated (see 6.3 Functions) when the amount of food to freeze exceeds approx. 2 kg.
  • With a small amount of frozen goods: SuperFrost is activated approx. 6 hours prior.
  • With the maximum amount of frozen goods: SuperFrost is activated approx. 24 hours prior.

Arrange your food as follows:

CAUTION
Risk of injury from glass fragments! Drink bottles and cans may explode if frozen. This applies particularly to carbonated drinks.

  • Only freeze drink bottles and cans when using the bottle timer function.

With a small amount of frozen goods:

  • Place packaged groceries in the top drawer.
  • If possible, place groceries at the back of the drawer near the rear wall.

With a maximum amount of frozen goods:

  • Distribute packaged groceries across all drawers, but do not place any groceries in the bottom drawer.

  • If possible, place groceries at the back of the drawer near the rear wall.
    With a maximum amount of frozen goods:

  • Once SuperFrost deactivates automatically, place food into the drawer.

Defrost the food

  • In the fridge
  • In the microwave
  • In the stove/oven
  • At room temperature

WARNING

Risk of food poisoning!

  • Do not re-freeze thawed food.
  • Only take out the food you need at the time.
  • Cook defrosted food as soon as possible.

Freezer tray
Use the freezer tray for berries, herbs, vegetables and other small goods without them freezing together in the process. The food keeps its shape and is easier to separate into portions later on.

You can also store the freezer packs in the freezer tray to save space.

  • Spread food, unsealed, at a good distance apart, over the whole surface of the freezer tray.

Storage times
Refer to the specified storage times as a guide. In the case of foods with a minimum shelf life, the date indicated on the packaging still applies.

Recommended storage period for various types of food

Ice cream| at -18 °C| 2 to 6 months
Sausages, ham| at -18 °C| 2 to 3 months
Bread, baked goods| at -18 °C| 2 to 6 months
Game, pork| at -18 °C| 6 to 9 months
Fatty fish| at -18 °C| 2 to 6 months
Lean fish| at -18 °C| 6 to 8 months
Cheese| at -18 °C| 2 to 6 months
Poultry, beef| at -18 °C| 6 to 12 months
Vegetables, fruit| at -18 °C| 6 to 12 months

Saving energy

  • Pay attention to good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation holes or grids.
  • Always keep the fan air slits clear.
  • Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight, next to an oven, radiator or similar.
  • Energy consumption depends on the installation conditions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.4 Appliance range of use). A warmer ambient temperature can increase energy consumption.
  • Open the appliance for as short a time as possible.
  • The lower the temperature is set the higher the energy consumption.
  • Keep all food properly packed and covered. This prevents frost from forming.
  • Inserting warm food: allow to cool down to room temper‐ature first.

Filling the water tank

WARNING
Impure water!

Poisoning.

  • Only fill with potable water.

NOTICE
Sugar-content liquids!

Damage to EasyTwist-Ice.

  • Only fill with cold drinking water.

Note
Using filtered, decarbonised water ensures the best-tasting drinking water for your ice cubes.

This water quality can be achieved using a table water filter of the kind available in trade retail outlets.

  • Always fill the water tank only with filtered, decarbonised drinking water.

The EasyTwist-Ice is supplied with water from the water tank.

  • Lift up the water tank at the rear Fig. 44 (1) and remove to the top Fig. 44 (2).
  • Fill with drinking water up to the marking.
  • Insert the water tank by reversing the steps described above.

Producing ice cubes
The production volume depends on the freezer temperature. The colder the temperature, the more ice cubes that can be produced in a certain period. Maximum capacity of the ice cube drawer – 40 cubes (2x ice cube production). Time required for ice cube production – at least 5 hours.

Releasing the ice cubes

  • Turn the knob to the right up to its stop limit.
  • If necessary, repeat this step several times and turn the knob a little more.

**IceMaker***
The IceMaker will produce ice cubes for household use only. Ensure that the following conditions are met:

  • IceMaker is cleaned (see 8 Maintenance) .
  • IceMaker drawer is cleaned.
  • IceMaker drawer is fully inserted.

Producing ice cubes
The volume depends on the freezing temperature. The colder the temperature, the more ice cubes the system can produce in a certain time period.

After the IceMaker is turned on for the first time, it can take up to 24 hours for the first ice cubes to be made.

  • Activate the IceMaker function (see 6.2 Control concept) .
  • To make a high number of ice cubes: Activate the MaxIce function (see 6.2 Control concept) .
  • Distribute the ice cubes evenly in the drawer to increase the capacity.
  • Closing the drawer: IceMaker starts making ice cubes again automatically.

Note
When a certain level is reached in the IceMaker drawer, it stops producing ice cubes. The IceMaker does not fill the drawer all the way to the top.

VarioSpace

You can remove drawers and glass panels from your appli‐ance. This provides more room for large food items such as poultry, joints of meat, large game, and tall baked products. You can then freeze these items whole for later preparation.

  • Note the weight limits on the drawers and glass panels (see 9.1 Technical specifications) .
Accessories

Freezer pack

  • Freezer packs prevent the temperature rising too quickly should there be a power cut.
  • The freezer packs are in the drawer.
  • You can store the freezer packs in the freezer tray.

Using the freezer pack

When the freezer packs are fully frozen:

  • Place on the frozen goods in the top, front part of the freezer.

**Ice cube tray with cover***

Using the ice cube tray

When the water is frozen:

  • Hold ice cube tray under hot water for a short time.
  • Remove the lid.
  • Gently turn the ends of the ice cube tray in opposite directions.
  • Release the ice cubes.

Dismantling the ice cube tray
You can take the ice cube tray apart for cleaning.

  • If you can remove the lamps yourself without destroying them, also remove these before disposal.
  • Take the appliance out of operation.
  • Appliances with batteries: remove the batteries. For description, see Maintenance chapter.
  • If possible: remove lamps without destroying them.

Disposing of the appliance in an environmentally friendly manner

For Germany:
You can dispose of the appli‐ance free of charge via the class 1 collection containers at the local recycling and recyclable material collection centres. When purchasing a new fridge/freezer, if the sales area 400 m2, retailers will also take back the old appliance free of charge.
