[. . . ] When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer becomes slightly warmer and expands. As soon as the lid is closed again the air is cooled immediately. This may lead to the creation of a vacuum which makes it hard to open the lid immediately after it has been closed. Wait a few minutes until the vacuum has disappeared, then open the lid by pulling gently. Never pull the handle violently. FREEZING CAPACITY FAST FREEZING It is important that fresh food placed in the freezer is frozen quickly, and that the food already in the freezer is heated as little as possible. If more than 3-4 kg of food is to be frozen: Turn the thermostat knob to the coldest setting (7). The freezer will now run continuously, creating a sufficient reserve of the temperature required. Turn the thermostat knob 6-24 hours before placing new food in the freezer, depending on how much food is to be frozen. Place the food in the freezer and leave the thermostat set at 7. Then turn the thermostat knob back again. The freezer will return to normal storage temperature. If you forget to turn the thermostat knob back, the freezer will not be damaged by running at this setting for some time but energy will be wasted. 5 HELPFUL HINTS STORAGE Frozen food can be stored anywhere inside the freezer, but should be kept at least 5 mm below the top edge. Never exceed the maximum storage time for purchased frozen food. When you buy frozen food, make sure that it has been stored at the correct temperature. Do not buy products which have wet or damaged packaging. Place purchased products in your freezer as quickly as possible. We recommend using an insulated bag to bring such products home with you. Never place bottles, warm objects, or fizzy drinks in the freezer. If freezing is too slow, the quality of the food being frozen deteriorates. IMPORTANT Never use a knife or any other sharp implement to remove frost. When the frost or ice layer is 10-15 mm thick, the freezer should be defrosted. We suggest that you defrost your freezer when there is little or no food inside.
