Freezing and storing food
35
Cooling drinks quickly
When cooling drinks quickly in the
freezer, make sure bottles are
not left in
for more than one hour
, otherwise
they could burst, causing injury and
damage.
Using accessories
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice cube tray three quarters
full of water and place it on the
bottom of one of the freezer drawers.
Once frozen, use a blunt instrument,
for example a spoon handle, to
remove the ice tray from the freezer if
it is stuck.
Useful tip:
The ice cubes can be easily
loosened by holding the tray briefly
under running water.
Using the cool pack
The cool pack prevents the temperature
in the freezer from rising too quickly in
the event of a power cut. This helps to
prolong the storage life.
Place the cool pack in the top drawer
of the freezer.
The cool pack will be at its most
effective after it has been in the freezer
for approx. 24 hours.
In the event of a power cut:
Place the frozen cool pack directly on
top of the frozen food in the front of
the top drawer.
Useful tip:
When placing fresh food in
the freezer, use the cool pack to
separate the fresh food from the food
which is already frozen so that the
frozen food does not begin to thaw.
Useful tip:
The cool pack can also be
used in a cool bag to keep food or
drinks cool for a short period of time.
