• If you need the whole upper drawer for freezing or storage, the ice cube bin can be removed.
• Important: The ice maker will not eject the ice cubes from its tray if the bin has been removed.

Freezing
Fresh food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as possible. Frozen food can also be given a cold boost. This is provided by the SuperFrost facility.

The maximum amount of food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the type plate (“Freezing capacity”). This amount varies according to the model and climate rating.

Freezing with SuperFrost
Touch the SuperFrost icon briefly so that the LED comes on.

• For small amounts of frozen food switch on SuperFrost 6 hours beforehand. For the maximum amount (see freezing capacity on the type plate) you will need to switch it on 24 hours beforehand.
• Then place the fresh food inside the freezer.
  • The SuperFrost function switches off automatically. Depending on the quantity of food placed in the freezer, this will normally be between 30 and max. 65 hours. The freezing process is now complete, the SuperFrost LED will go out.

You should not switch on the SuperFrost function:

• when placing frozen food in the freezer;
• when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily.

Notes on freezing

• Always store identical food items together.
• Pack food that you are freezing yourself in quantities appropriate to your household. To ensure that the food freezes right through, the following quantities should not be exceeded per package: fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg, meat: up to 2.5 kg.
• Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or reusable plastic, metal or aluminium containers.
• Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to come into contact with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry to avoid them sticking together.
• Always write the date and contents on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time for the food.
• Do not freeze bottles and cans that contain carbonated drinks as they might burst.
• Only take out as much food as is immediately required for thawing. Use food that has been thawed in prepared meals as quickly as possible.

Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways:

• in a fan oven,
• in a microwave oven,
• at room temperature,
• in the refrigerator: the cold given off by the frozen food is used for cooling.

Icemaker Vacation state

In case of longer vacations, the ice cube tray should be emptied.

• By setting the ice maker into the vacation state, the tray will rotate down and no water will remain in the tray.
• The freezer drawer must be left open so that the surface of the tray dries up and no mould or unpleasant odours can occur.

Activating the ice maker vacation state
Be sure the upper freezer drawer is completely closed and the ice cube bin is installed correctly.

When the interior temperature appears in the display, the tray is in the down position and the ice maker is switched off automatically.

Defrosting

• Refrigerator compartment
  The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. The water that forms on the rear wall drains into a reservoir at the back of the appliance and evaporates automatically through the compressor heat.

• Freezer compartment
  The NoFrost system automatically defrosts the appliance. Any moisture arising collects on the evaporator and freezes, and is periodically defrosted and evaporated.
