Freezing fresh food

 

The 4-star compartment (

) is suitable for long 

term storage of commercially frozen food (i.e. for 3 
months, unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer), 
and for freezing fresh food.
Under normal circumstances, to freeze fresh foods it 
is not necessary to change the setting of the 
thermostat knob with respect to the normal running 
position.
However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the 
thermostat knob to the coldest setting, but remember 
that, in this condition, the refrigerating compartment 
temperature might drop below 0

 

°

 

C. If this occurs 

reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting.

To help you make the most of the freezing process, 
here are some important hints:

Place the food to be frozen on the shelf.

The maximum quantity of food which can be frozen 
in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.

Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned 
foodstuffs.

Prepare the fresh 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 at the time.

Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and 
make sure that the packages are airtight.

It is advisable to show on the single food packet the 
freezing-in date to enable you to keep tab of the 
storage time.

Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food 
which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in 
temperature of the latter.

 

Important

 

Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in 
the freezing compartment as they may burst.

Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal 
from the freezing compartment, can possibly cause 
the skin to be freeze burnt.

Remember that, once thawed, frozen food deteriorates 
rapidly.

On the rear side of the door you will find a list of 
foods followed by a number. These numbers indicate 
the maximum period of time for which the food in 

 

question may be conserved (in months).

Storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this appliance, 
we strongly recommend that you make sure that the 
commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately 
stored by the retailer and, furthermore, be sure that 
these frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the 
foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time (a 
temperature increase of the frozen food could shorten 
its storage period).
It is also advisable not to exceed the storage period 
indicated by the producer of the food.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it 
open longer than absolutely necessary.
If there is a power failure when food is in the freezer, 
do not open the door of the freezing compartment.
The frozen food will not be affected if the power cut 
is of short duration (a temperature increase of the 
frozen food could shorten its safe storage period), 
otherwise it is recommended that the food should be 
used within a very short time.

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can 
be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room 
temperature, depending on the time available for this 
operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly 
from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take 
longer.
