Before the freezing process is started, the
foods already in the freezer are cooled
down further to prevent them warming up
too much due to the effect of the products
being frozen.
If a lot of frost (more than 0,5 cm) has ac-
cumulated in the freezer, it is advisable to
defrost it before starting the freezing pro-
cess.
To freeze:
1 The freezer can be activated to operate
the freezing process for 48 hours.
Switch the freezer to positive drive in
good time before starting the freezing
process. When freezing small amounts
(1 kg), no precooling is needed.
This function is used when freezing lar-
ge quantities.
Activating the function:
Press the F-button of the display
enough times so that the text SF ap-
pears on the screen; this text stays on
the screen throughout the speedy free-
zing period. During speedy freezing,
neither the set temperature value nor
the interior temperature of the freezer
can be checked on the display using
the display buttons.
Unnecessary precooling can be stop-
ped by resetting the storage temperatu-
re for the freezer using the display but-
tons.
Press the F-button until the display be-
gins to flash. Then, using the F-button,
select the desired temperature and lea-
ve it visible.
The selection has now been made, and
no separate confirmation is needed.
The display will return to showing the
interior temperature.
Freezing
2 If the quantity to be frozen is more than
5 kg, then allow the mechanism to go
through one freezing cycle (48 hours)
before beginning the freezing. After the
48-hour freezing cycle, the electronic
thermostat returns automatically to the
storage temperature. When freezing
small amounts (1 kg), no precooling is
needed.
3 Put the products to be frozen in such a
way that there will be a gap for air
circulation between the products to be
frozen. In this way, the products will
freeze more efficiently.
4 Reactivate the freezing cycle (48
hours) for the freezer. After the 48-
hour freezing cycle, the electronic
thermostat will return automatically to
the storage temperature.
If it is desired to stop the freezing cycle
before the 48 hours are over, this is
done by resetting the storage
temperature for the freezer, using the
display buttons.
The freezing time depends on the
quantity of products to be frozen, and
on other use of the freezer. In practice,
the freezing time is about ½ - 1 day.
