To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times
you open the door. When retuning from shopping, sort foods
to be kept in your Fridge before opening the door. Only open
the door to put food in or take it out.
Tips for shopping for frozen foods
Your Freezer is 4 star
When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage
Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each
item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star
rating. This is usually the period stated as “Best, Before”,
found on the front of the packaging.
Check the Fridge/Freezer temperature
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop
where you buy your frozen foods.
Choose packs carefully
Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
Purchase frozen food last
Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit
to the supermarket.
Keep frozen foods together
Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping, and on the
journey home as this will help to keep the food cooler.
Store food straight away
Don’t buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away.
Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets
and hardware shops. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
Thawing frozen food
For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary.
Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water
or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a
saucepan and heated gently until thawed.
Freezing fresh foods, useful tips
Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze
food in small quantities, it freezes faster, takes less time to
thaw and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.
Freezing fresh foods
First, estimate the amount of food you will be freezing. If you
are freezing large amounts of fresh food, remember to turn
the control dial to Max. This will lower the temperature in the
Freezer, freezing your food quicker and helping to keep the
goodness in. However you should do this sparingly to
conserve energy.
Preparations for freezing
·
Leave cooked food to cool completely.
·
Chill food in a Fridge before freezing if possible.
·
Consider how you want to cook the food before freezing
it.
·
Don’t freeze food in metal containers as you may want to
microwave it straight from the Freezer.
·
Use special Freezer bags available from supermarkets,
Freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers,
aluminum foil for acidic foods(such as citrus fruits).
Do not use thin cling film or glass. Do not use used food
containers (unless cleaned thoroughly first).
·
Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You
could buy a special vacuum pump which sucks excessive
air out of the packaging.
·
Leave a small amount of “air space” when freezing
liquids, to allow for expansion.
·
You can use the space in the Freezer most efficiently if
you freeze liquids(or solids with liquids, such as stew) in
square blocks.
This is known as “performing” Pour the liquid into a
polythene bag which is inside a square sided container.
Freeze it like this, then remove it from the container and
seal the bag.
Defrosting
This appliance is designed as automatic defrosting ,no need to
defrost by hand.
Recommended storage periods

given on your food packaging.
Cleaning inside the Fridge/Freezer
You should clean the Fridge/Freezer internally with a weak
solution of bicarbonate of soda. Then rinse with warm water
using a damp sponge or cloth and wipe dry. Wash the baskets
in warm soapy water and ensure they are completely dry
before replacing in the Fridge/Freezer.
Cleaning outside the Fridge/Freezer
Use standard non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water
to clean the Fridge/Freezer exterior.
The grille of the condenser at the back of the Fridge/Freezer
and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft
brush attachment.
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean
any part of the Fridge/Freezer
