• 24 hours before freezing fresh food, activate the rapid freezing
function (freeze boost):
- press the
E
key.
After this period place fresh food in
the freezing
compartment
.
Do not let the already frozen packages touch the fresh ones.
• After 24 hours you may move the food to
the storage
compartment
, and repeat the freezing procedure if required.
You may also remove the drawers and store frozen food
directly on cooling shelves.
• For freezing smaller quantities of fresh food (1-2 kg), the
engagement of the fast freeze function is not required.
Freeze only such food which is suitable for freezing
and can sustain low temperatures. Food should be of
adequate quality and fresh.
Select adequate packaging for each kind of food and
pack it correctly.
The packaging should be air tight and well sealed
without leaking since this could cause substantial
vitamin loss and dehydration.
Mark packages with following data:Type, kind and
amount; with the date of placing.
It is imperative that food is frozen as quickly as
possible. We therefore recommend the size of the
package not to be too large and to be cooled before
placing into the freezer.
The amount of the fresh foods that can be loaded in
the freezer as a single load is declared on the rating
plate. If the loaded amount is too large, the quality of
freezing is reduced which in turn affects the quality of
frozen foods.
The storage time and recommended temperature for storing
commercially frozen foods is indicated on the packaging. Always
follow manufacturer’s instructions for storage and use of frozen
food. When shopping be careful to choose only food which is
adequately packed and provided with complete data and stored
in freezers where the temperature never rises above -18°C.
Do not buy packages of food wrapped with frost. This indicates
that the package was thawed before at least once.
