Hints ffor ffreezing
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;
• prepare food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and
completely frozen and to make it
possible subsequently 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;
• water ices, if consumed immediately
after removal from the freezer
compartment, can possibly cause
frost burns;
• it is advisable to show the freezing-
in date on each individual pack to
enable you to keep a tab of the
storage time;
• do n
not p
put c
carbonated lliquids ((fizzy
drinks, e
etc.) iin tthe ffreezer
compartment a
as tthey m
may b
burst.
Hints for storage of
frozen food
To obtain the best performance from
this appliance, you should:
• 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.
