5.4.5 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.

You can freeze as many kilograms of fresh food within 24 hrs as is indicated on the type plate under "Freezing capacity ... kg/24hrs". This maximum freezing quantity can vary depending on model and climate class.

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. 1 kg fresh food daily

6 Maintenance

6.1 Manual defrosting

Fridge compartment:

The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically. The defrost water evaporates as a result of the heat of the compressor. Drops of water on the rear wall are perfectly normal.

Regularly clean the drain opening to allow the water to flow away (see 6.2).

Freezer compartment:

A layer of frost or ice can build up in the freezer compartment after a long period of operation.

The layer of frost or ice builds up faster if the appliance is opened often 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.

Thawing process:
