Freezer compartment
• Please use the deep freeze compartment of your refrigerator for storing the frozen food
for a long time and for producing ice.
• To get maximum capacity for freezer compartment, please just use glass shelves for
upper and middle section. For bottom section, please use lower basket.
• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, Set the
refrigerator at 4 for 24 hours before placing fresh food into the freezer.
• After placing fresh food into the freezer, change the setting to 5 for 24 hours is generally
sufficient. After 24 hours, you can reduce the setting if required.
• Please do not place the food you shall newly freeze nearby the already frozen food.
• You should freeze the food to be frozen (meat, minced meat, fish, etc.) by dividing them
into portions in such a way that they can be consumed once.
• Please do not refreeze the frozen food once they are thawed. It may pose a danger for
your health since it might cause problems such as food poisoning.
• Do not place the hot meals in your deep freeze before they become cold. You would
cause the other food frozen beforehand in the deep freeze to become putrefied.
• When you buy frozen food, makes sure that they were frozen under appropriate
conditions and the package is not torn.
• While storing the frozen food, the storage conditions on the package should certainly
be observed. If there is not any explanation, the food must be consumed within the
shortest time possible.
• If there had been humidification in the frozen food package and it has a foul smell, the
food might have been stored under unsuitable conditions previously and gone rotten.
Do not purchase this type of foods!
• The storage durations of frozen food change depending on the ambient temperature,
the frequent opening and closing of the doors, thermostat settings, food type and the
time elapsed from the purchase time of the food to the time it is placed into the freezer.
Always abide by the instructions on the package and never exceed the indicated
storage duration.
Note that; if you want to open again immediately after closing the freezer door, it will not be
opened easily. It’s quite normal! After reaching equilibrium condition, the door will be opened
easily.
Important note:
• Frozen foods, when thawed, should be cooked just like fresh foods. If they are not
cooked after being thawed they must NEVER be re-frozen.
• The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar,
assorted spices, ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.)
changes and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a long period.
Therefore, the frozen food should be added little amount of spices or the desired spice
should be added after the food has been thawed.
• The storage period of food is dependent on the oil used. The suitable oils are margarine,
calf fat, olive oil and butter and the unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
• The food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and the other food should be
frozen in plastic folios or bags.
Some recommendations have been specified on pages 18, 19 and 20 for the placement and
storage of your food in the deep freeze compartment.
