The maximum amount of fresh food which can be frozen in 24 h is indicated on the type plate under “freezing capacity … kg/ 24h”.
This amount varies according to the model and climate rating.
You have to activate SuperFrost in good time, depending on how much fresh food is to be frozen: about 6 hours before placing the food inside in case of small amounts and about 24 hours in advance in case of the maximum amount of food to be frozen.
Wrap produce and spread it out as far as possible. Do not allow produce to be frozen to touch produce that is already frozen to prevent the latter thawing.
You do not have to activate SuperFrost in the following cases:

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

Freezing with SuperFrost

▶Briefly press the SuperFrost button Fig. 11 (7).
▷The SuperFrost symbol Fig. 11 (10) is shown on the display.
▷The freezing temperature is reduced, and the appliance operates at the maximum freezing capacity.

Note
Pressing the SuperFrost button can cause the compressor to switch on up to 8 minutes later, thanks to the integrated switch-on delay. This delay increases the  service life of the compressor.

In case of a small amount of food to be frozen:
▶Wait approx. 6 hours.
In case of the maximum amount of food to be frozen (see type plate):
▶Wait approx. 24 hours.
▶Place packaged food in the top drawers.
▷SuperFrost is automatically deactivated after about 65 hours.
▷The SuperFrost symbol Fig. 11 (10) goes out when freezing is finished.
▷The appliance continues to operate in the energy-saving, normal mode.

Malfunctions

Your appliance is designed and manufactured for a long life span and reliable operation. If a malfunction nonetheless occurs during operation, check whether it  is due to a handling error. In this case you will have to be charged for the costs incurred, even during the warranty period. You may be able to rectify the  following faults yourself:
Normal noises in the appliance:
Running noise due to speed-regulated compressors.
A bubbling or splashing sound from the coolant flowing through the coolant circuit.
A quiet clicking, when the cooling unit (motor) switches itself on and off automatically.
Brief humming noise, slightly louder:

• When the motor switches on, when SuperFrost is switched on, if fresh food has been recently stored or the door has been open for a long period, the  freezing capacity automatically increases.
• High ambient temperature (s. 1.2 Appliance range of use)

Deep humming – Noise of air flowing through the fan.
The compressor runs for a long time:

• It switches to a lower speed when it requires a lower cooling capacity, to save energy.
• SuperFrost is switched on.

A LED on the bottom rear of the appliance (at the compressor) flashes regularly every 15 seconds*.

• The inverter is equipped with a diagnostic LED.
  The flashing is normal.
