Freezer compartmen
• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen foods for long periods of time and
making ice cubes.
• To freeze fresh food, ensure that as much of the surface as possible of food to be frozen
is in contact with the cooling surface.
• Do not put fresh food with frozen on side by side as it can thaw the frozen food.
• While freezing fresh foods(i.e meat,fish and mincemeat), divide them in parts you will
use in one time.
• Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods into freezer and remember to
consume them in as short period of time.
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment. As it will disturb the frozen foods.
• For storing the frozen foods;the instructions shown on frozen food packages should
always be followed carefully and if no information is provided food should not be stored
for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• When buying frozen foods ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures
and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen foods should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality
of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest
possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable
that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have
deteriorated.
• Not that; if you want to open again immediately after closing the freezer door, it will not
be opened easily. It’s quite normal! After reaching equilibrium condition, the door will be
opened easily.
• The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed
on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
