Note:
The temperature in the freezer compartment is
maintained at the ideal level for the storage of
frozen food also during power failures of limited
duration, although it is advisable to avoid
opening the freezer compartment door during
such periods.
Important:
The table alongside shows the recommended
maximum storage time for frozen fresh
foods.
When purchasing frozen food products:
•
ensure that the packaging is not damaged
(frozen food in damaged packaging may
have deteriorated). Avoid packages that are
swollen or show evidence of damp areas
indicating that the food may have thawed
partially during its period of storage.
• When shopping, leave frozen food
purchases till last and transport the products
in a thermally insulated cool bag.
• Place the items in the freezer compartment
as soon as you get home.
• If food has thawed, even partially, do not re-
freeze it. Consume within 24 hours.
• Avoid subjecting foods to temperature
variations. Observe the “best before” date on
the package.
• Always observe the storage information on
the package.
Removing the baskets
•
Pull out fully, raise slightly and remove.
Note:
The freezer compartment can be used without
the two upper baskets to increase storage space
for large products. The lower basket must not be
removed.
Place the food products directly on the racks.
After inserting food, ensure that the freezer
compartment door closes properly.
Making ice cubes
• Pour water into the ice tray up to 2/3 full and
place it in the freezer compartment.
• If the ice tray sticks to the shelves, do not use
pointed or sharp objects to detach it.
• Bend the ice tray slightly to remove the
cubes.
