Freezing and storing food (depending on model)
26
Approx. 24 hours after placing fresh
food in the freezer compartment
The food will be frozen.
Reset the temperature to the one you
want.
We recommend a temperature of
5 °C.
Storage time for frozen food
The storage life of food is very variable,
even at a constant temperature of
-18 °C. Decomposition processes also
take place in frozen food, albeit at a
very reduced speed. For example fat
can become rancid from contact with
oxygen in the air. This is why lean meat
can be stored approx. twice as long as
fatty meat.
The storage times quoted are guide
values for the storage life of different
food groups in the freezer section.
