Freezer compartment

• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen foods for long periods of time
and making ice cubes.
• To freeze fresh food, ensure that as much of the surface as possible of food to be
frozen is in contact with the cooling surface.
• Do not put fresh food with frozen on side by side as it can thaw the frozen food.
• While freezing fresh foods(i.e meat,fish and mincemeat), divide them in parts you
will use in one time.
• Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods into freezer and remember to
consume them in as short period of time.
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment. As it will disturb the frozen
foods.
• For storing the frozen foods;the instructions shown on frozen food packages
should always be followed carefully and if no information is provided food should
not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• When buying frozen foods ensure that these have been frozen at suitable
temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen foods should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the
quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the
shortest possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is
probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that
the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat
setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time
required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the
instructions printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life
indicated.

opened easily. It's quite normal! After reaching equilibrium condition, the door will be
opened easily.
