Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending on the type of food and the size of the packs. Meat, �sh and fruit should be thawed in the refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat or poultry can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through. Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in the oven in their aluminium wrapping. A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping in the oven.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with two plastic ice cube trays. Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and place them in one of the freezer drawers. To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight twist to release the cubes.
Cold accumulator
The freezer contains one cold accumulator which can be found in one of the freezer drawers. Place the cold accumulator in the FAST FREEZE compartment see Fig. 5. The cold accumulator increases storage times in the event of a power cut or breakdown. Removal of this unit will increase the capacity of the fast freezing compartment but will reduce storage times in the event of a power cut or breakdown. Fig. 5
