Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you
should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs
were adequately stored by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the
foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave it open longer
than absolutely necessary.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot
be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food
manufacturer.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here
are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in
24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food
to be frozen should be added during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned,
foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly
and completely frozen and to make it possible subse-
quently to thaw only the quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and
make sure that the packages are airtight;
• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which
is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of
the latter;
• lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt
reduces the storage life of food;
• water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the
skin to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each in-
dividual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage
time;
• on the inner door or special card (if supplied) you will
find sketches of various animals and food types to-
gether with the recommended storage time (in months)
from the time of freezing;
• do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in
the freezer compartment as they may burst.
