STORING FROZEN FOOD
It is impossible to accurately predict the effective storage
period for frozen food in that this varies considerably ac-
cording to the nature of the food itself.
To be safe, always follow the instructions reported on the
packaging of frozen food products.
ICE-CUBE PRODUCTION
Fill the ice-tray 3/4 full with water. Place it in the sliding
drawer (where itted) in the freezer compartment.
GENERAL ADVICE:
Make sure that the packaging is intact and that there are
no damp marks or swelling, in that these indicate that the
frozen product may already have deteriorated.
Any food that has started to thaw out must not under any
circumstances be re-frozen.
Do not store frozen foods for longer than the recommended
time period.
DEFROSTING:
If a power cut should occur, try to establish its duration.
If the forecast is less than 12 hours, leave the food in the
freezer and keep the door closed. If the power cut lasts for
longer than 12 hours and part of the food starts to thaw
out, this should be consumed as soon as possible. Frost
that forms on the cooling grids must be removed when it
reaches a thickness of approximately 3-4 mm. Otherwise,
the cold transfer will be impeded and the energy consump-
tion will increase. The layer of frost must be removed using
the plastic scraper supplied. Any damage caused by the use
of the scraper is not covered by the guarantee.
Generally speaking, the freezer should be defrosted at least
twice a year as follows:
- Remove the food, wrap it in several layers of news-
paper and place it in the fridge or in a cool location.
- Remember that an increase in the temperature of the
food will greatly reduce its storage life.
- Remove the racks, ice-trays and leave the door open.
- Use a sponge to mop up the water that collects at the
bottom of the appliance.
- To accelerate the defrosting action, scrape off the layer
of frost using the spatula supplied.
