� The following are suited for sealing bags and wraps: plastic clips, rubber bands or adhesive tape. � Press air out of bags and wraps before sealing, because air encourages drying of frozen goods. � Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly. � Do not fill plastic containers for frozen foods to the brim with liquid or paste-like goods, because liquids expand during freezing.
Frozen Storage
Warning! Before initial loading of the freezer compartment with previously frozen goods, the required storage temperature of -18°C must be reached. � Load freezer only with packaged frozen goods, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods can occur. � Please observe maximum storage times and expiry dates of frozen goods.

When possible store frozen goods separately according to type in drawers. The models are provided with index-tabs which can be attached to the drawers. In order to identify the contents of individual compartments, attach the index-tabs so that they cover the storage goods symbols (see section: "Storage Goods Symbols/Freezing Calendar").
