Important
Do not consume ice-lollies which have just come out
of the freezer. Their extremely low temperature can
cause frost burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
Caution
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will
not be affected if the power cut is short and if the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food
begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must
not be re-frozen.
Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending
on the type of food and the size of the packs.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigeration compartment and small pieces of meat or
poultry can even be cooked while still frozen, but you
must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the
oven instructions, particularly regarding the
placement of aluminium wrapping in the oven.
Ice making
Fill the ice trays with water to the top of each ice cube
compartment, and place them in the freezer
compartment. To release the ice cubes, twist the tray
along its length.
Never use a sharp instrument to remove the ice trays.
