u

cases.

5.4.4 SuperFrost*

With this function you can freeze fresh food quickly
through to the core. The appliance operates with
maximum refrigeration. The noise of the refrigeration
unit may be temporarily louder as a result.

In addition, frozen food already in storage is given a “cold
reserve”. The food stays frozen longer as a result when you
defrost the appliance.

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.

6.1 Defrosting

6.1.1 Defrosting refrigerator compartment*

The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically. The
water evaporates. Drops of water on the rear wall are function­ally conditioned and perfectly normal.

Clean the drain hole at regular intervals to allow the defrost

u

water to drain (see 6.2) .

* Depending on model and options 9

Maintenance

6.1.2 Defrosting freezer compartment*

A layer of frost and ice forms in the freezer compartment after
the appliance has been in use for a lengthy period of time. This
is quite normal. The layer of frost and ice forms more quickly if
the door is opened frequently or if the food is warm when
placed inside. However, a thick layer of ice will increase the
appliance‘s energy consumption. You should therefore defrost
the appliance regularly.

CAUTION

Risk of injury and damage as a result of hot steam!

Do not use electric heaters or steam cleaners, naked flames

u

or defrosting sprays for defrosting.
Do not remove ice using sharp instruments.

u

u

a cool place.
Leave the compartment and appliance door open during

u

defrosting.
Remove detached pieces of ice.

u

If necessary, pick up defrost water several times, using a

u

sponge or cloth.
Clean the compartment (see 6.2) .
