Food Storage

¥ To obtain the best results from your appliance,

neither hot foods nor liquids which may

evaporate, should be placed in the larder

compartment.

¥ Keep the time between buying chilled food and

placing it in your fridge as short as possible.

¥ Do not push food together too much, try to allow

air to circulate around each item.

¥ Do not store food uncovered.
¥ Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and

clean, refer to ÔMaintenance and CleaningÕ.

¥ Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated

and labelled and used in date order to ensure

that food is consumed at its best.

¥ Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it

straight away. The use of an insulated container

is advisable. When you arrive home place the

frozen food in the freezer immediately.

¥ The symbols on the drawers show different types of

frozen goods. The numbers indicate storage times in

months for the appropriate types of frozen goods.

Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated

storage time is valid depends on the quality of the

foods and pre-treating before freezing.

Energy Saving Advice 

¥ Do not install the cabinet close to sources of

heat, i.e. boiler or radiator.

¥ Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated

room and make sure that the air openings of the

cabinet are not obstructed.

¥ Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by

packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages

before placing them in the freezer.

¥ Always leave warm food to cool down to room

temperature before placing in the fridge or

freezer.

¥ Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should be

placed in the fridge before being transferred to

the freezer.

¥ Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure

safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of

the refrigeration unit.

¥ Try to avoid keeping the door open for long

periods, or opening the door too frequently as

warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the

compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.

¥ Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the

door from closing properly.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen

foods, keep the door closed. If the temperature

within your freezer should rise do not refreeze the

food without checking itÕs condition. 
The following guidelines should assist you.

Ice Cream:

Once thawed should be discarded.

Fruit and Vegetables:

If soft should be cooked and used up.

Bread and Cakes:

Can be refrozen without danger.

Shellfish:

Should be refrigerated and used up quickly.

Cooked Dishes:

i.e. casseroles, should be refrigerated and used up.

Large Pieces of Meat:

Can be re-frozen providing there are ice crystals

remaining within them.

Small Joints:

Should be cooked and then re-frozen as cooked

dishes.

Chicken:

Should be cooked and re-frozen as a fresh dish.
