5.4 Recommendations for
preserving the frozen food
Compartment shall be set to -18°C at
least.
1.
Put packages in the freezer
as quickly as possible after
purchase without allowing the
to thaw.
2.
Check whether the “Use By”
and “Best Before” dates on the
packaging are expired or not
before freezing it.
3.
Ensure that the package of the
food is not damaged.
5.5 Deep-freeze information
According to IEC 62552 standards,
the product shall freeze at least
4.5 kg of food at 25°C ambient
temperature to -18°C or lower
within 24 hours for every 100-litres
of freezer volume.
It is possible to preserve the food
for a long time only at -18°C or
lower temperatures.
You can keep the freshness of
food for many months (at -18°C or
lower temperatures in the deep
freeze).
Foods to be frozen should not be
allowed to come in contact with the
previously frozen items to prevent
them from getting thawed partially.
Boil the vegetables and drain their
water in order to store vegetables
for a longer time as frozen. After
draining their water, put them
in air-proof packages and place
them inside the freezer. Food such
as bananas, tomatoes, lettuce,
celery, boiled eggs, potatoes are
not suitable for freezing. When
these foods are frozen, only their
nutritional value and taste shall
be affected negatively. They shall
not be spoiled so that they would
create a risk for human health.
