FREEZING OF FOODSTUFFS IN THE FREEZER
COMPARTMENT
In the freezer compartment the fast-freeze section is marked with the symbol
Fresh foodstuffs prepared for freezing should be placed in one or two layers in the
fast-freeze section. The thermostat knob should be set to
7
. After 24 hours the frozen
food products should be replaced from the quick-freeze section to the storage section
drawer(s) (
Fig. 1
). When the products are frozen, the thermostat wheel should be
set
at its earlier position
.
•
DO NOT EXCEED THE INDICATED MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF FOOD FOR
FREEZING (see page 34).
•
Leave not less than 3 cm gap between a top of frozen products and a bottom of
drawer, which is over them.
•
Do not place unwrapped foodstuffs in the freezer sections.
•
Fresh food for freezing should not touch already frozen foodstuffs.
•
Do not freeze foodstuffs that are warmer than the room temperature.
•
WARNING! Do not freeze liquid foodstuffs in glass vessels or bottles.
•
Strictly observe the frozen foodstuffs validity dates indicated by the manufacturer on
the product packaging.
•
WE RECOMMEND THAT FROZEN FISH AND SAUSAGE SHOULD BE STORED IN
THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT NOT LONGER THAN 6 MONTHS; CHEESE,
POULTRY, PORK, LAMB – NOT MORE THAN 8 MONTHS; BEEF, FRUIT AND
VEGETABLES – NOT LONGER THAN 12 MONTHS.
DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the
back wall of the refrigerator compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not
working and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray
17
on
top of the compressor
18
(
Fig. 1
), where it evaporates.
DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The freezer compartment should be thawed not less than twice a year or when a layer
of ice thicker than 5 mm forms in it. Do the actions below in the order they are listed:
IMPORTANT!
Turn off the appliance – unplug the power supply cord plug from
the electrical socket.
•
Remove foodstuffs from freezer compartment. The frozen
foodstuffs will not warm up too much while you are thawing the
freezer compartment if you cover them with a thick cloth and keep
them in a cool place.
•
Remove the thaw water chamfer, turn it 180 º and place in front
of the freezer compartment
(Fig. 4). Place a bowl under the thaw
water chamfer.
•
Place a dish under the thaw water channel. Leave door of freezer compartment open.
•
When the ice melts, clean and wipe dry the surfaces and fixtures of the freezer
compartment.
