Storing frozen food
The deep-freeze chain must not be broken
between the manufacturer and your freezer.
The temperature of the frozen food must al-
ways be at least -18 °C.
• Therefore, do not buy any goods that
– are in frosty, over-icy chests.
– are stacked above the stipulated high-
load marker.
– partially clumped (particularly easy to
identify with berries and vegetables).
– have snow and juice traces.
• Transport frozen foods in special styro-
foam boxes or insulated bags.
• Observe the storage conditions and times
on the packaging
Defrosting food
Observe the following basic rules when de-
frosting food:
– To defrost food, remove it from the freezer
and let it defrost at room temperature or in
the refrigerator.
– To defrost food quickly, use the defrost
function on your microwave, for example.
Observe the manufacturer’s instructions
and note that bacteria and germs can form
in this way.
– Cook or use thawed foods as soon as pos-
sible.
– Dispose of the defrosting liquid.
– If you only want to defrost part of a pack,
remove the portion you need and immedi-
ately close the rest of the pack. In this way,
you will avoid “freezer burn” and will reduce
ice formation on the remaining foods.
– Always defrost meat, poultry and fish in the
refrigerator. Make sure that the frozen food
is not immersed in its own thawing liquid.
Cook or use thawed foods as soon as
possible. Dispose of the defrosting liq-
uid.
Making ice cubes
CAUTION
Health hazard!
Eating ice cubes which have been pre-
pared using impure or standing water
can be harmful to health! Incorrect
handling can lead to risks of causing
food poisoning.
■
Use only fresh drinking water to make
ice cubes.
• Fill the supplied ice cube container to
the ¾ level with fresh drinking water and
place it horizontally in the freezer com-
partment.
The ice cubes are best removed by
bending the ice cube container slightly
or holding it under running water for a short
while.
