The figures indicate the storage time in months for several types of frozen food in each case. Storage times given are guide times.

5.13 Drawer for herbs and berries

In the drawer for herbs and berries you can freeze, berries, herbs, vegetables and other small items of food without them sticking together. Items being frozen will largely retain their shape, and it will be easier to remove exactly the right quantity later on.

5.13.1 Using the special drawer for herbs and berries

Spread the items out loosely

in the special drawer for herbs and berries. Allow the food to freeze

through for 10 to 12 h. Transfer the frozen food to

freezer bags or containers. Store freezer bags or containers in a drawer.

To thaw the items, spead them out loosely again.

5.14 Freezer pack

Freezer packs prevent the temperature rising too quickly should there be a power cut.

5.14.1 Using freezer packs

Put the freezer packs in the

herbs and berries section to save space. Put the fully frozen freezer

packs on the frozen food in the top front section of the freezer compartment.
