into portions that can be consumed in
one sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within a
short period of time after defrosting
• Never place warm food in the freezer
compartment as it will thaw the frozen
food.
• Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions on food packaging when
storing frozen food. If no information
is provided food, should not be stored
for more than 3 months from the date
of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make
sure that it has been stored under
appropriate conditions and that the
packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in
appropriate containers and placed in
the freezer as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the
packaging shows signs of humidity
and abnormal swelling. It is probable
that it has been stored at an
unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food
depends on the room temperature,
the thermostat setting, how often the
door is opened, the type of food, and
the length of time required to transport
the product from the shop to your
home. Always follow the instructions
printed on the packaging and never
exceed the maximum storage life
indicated.
• The maximum amount of fresh food (in
kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is
indicated on the appliance label.
• For optimum appliance performance
to reach maximum freezing capacity,
set the refrigerator thermostat at 4 - 5
for 24 hours before placing fresh food
into the freezer.
• After placing fresh food into the
freezer, change the setting to 4 - 5 for
24 hours is generally sufficient. After
24 hours, you can reduce the setting
if required.
• To use the maximum capacity of the
freezer compartment, use the glass
shelves for the upper and middle
section, and use the lower basket for
the bottom section.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze
home cooking (and any other food
which needs to be frozen quickly)
more quickly because of the freezing
shelf’s greater freezing power. Fast
freezing shef is the bottom drawer of
the freezer compartment.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer
door immediately after closing it, you
will find that it will not open easily. This
is normal. Once equilibrium has been
reached, the door will open easily.
Important note:
• Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
•
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 of
time. Therefore, add small amounts
of spices to food to be frozen, or the
desired spice should be added after
the food has thawed.
• The storage time of food is dependent
on the type of oil used. Suitable oils
are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and
butter. Unsuitable oils are peanut oil
and pig fat.
• Food in liquid form should be frozen in
plastic cups and other food should be
frozen in plastic folios or bags.
The table below is a quick guide to
show you the most efficient way to
store the major food groups in your freezer
compartment.
