Frozen food can be stored anywhere inside the freezer, but
should be kept at least 5 mm below the top edge. Never
exceed the maximum storage time for purchased frozen
food. When you buy frozen food, make sure that it has been
stored at the correct temperature. Do not buy products
which have wet or damaged packaging. Place purchased
products in your freezer as quickly as possible. We
recommend using an insulated bag to bring such products
home with you. Never place bottles, warm objects, or fizzy
drinks in the freezer.

Only use fresh food of the best quality. Cool hot dishes to
room temperature as quickly as possible before placing
them in the freezer. Wrap food carefully in freezer foil, or
use the special freezer boxes or bags which are on the
market. Divide food into small portions before freezing - this
ensures that freezing is more rapid, and means that you
only need to defrost the amount needed for immediate
consumption. Remember that defrosted food must not be
re-frozen. However, dishes which have been made using
defrosted food may be frozen. Mark the freezer packaging
with the date of freezing. We recommend keeping a record
of the contents of your freezer. If freezing is too slow, the
quality of the food being frozen deteriorates. Consequently,
do not freeze larger amounts than stated in the freezers
data plate. If you wish to freeze food several days in a row,
the maximum freezing capacity stated per day is reduced
by about one-third. As far as possible, keep the lid
closed during freezing. If you know nothing about home
freezing, we recommend that you purchase a book
containing advice and guidelines.

In general food should not be defrosted at room
temperature, since this increases the risk of bacteria
growth. It is best to defrost large portions of meat or
poultry in the refrigerator, and this also applies to food
which is to be consumed as it is (e.g. fruit, butter and
sliced meat). Small portions of food can be cooked
straight from the freezer. A good number of ready-to-
cook dishes can also be cooked without defrosting.
Always observe the instructions on product packaging.
Bread tastes good when defrosted in a moderate oven.
Microwave ovens can be used for the rapid defrosting of
most frozen foods. Observe the instructions for use of
the microwave oven concerned.
