often the door is opened and how long it remains open. If

Freezing and storing food
∙ With an operating temperature of –18°C and below,
the various freezer compartments can be used to store
frozen or pre-frozen food for several months, to make ice
cubes and to freeze fresh food.
∙ To ensure that nutritious elements such as vitamins are
not lost, fresh food should be deep-frozen right through

maximum freezing capacity per day. The product data
sheet contains details of the maximum daily freezing
capacity. Spread it out well in the freezer compartment
and avoid contact with food that has already been frozen.
∙ Prior to freezing, fresh food (e.g. meat, fi sh, minced
meat) should be divided into smaller portions suitable for
use after thawing).
∙ When storing pre-frozen food, strict attention should be
paid to the manufacturer's information provided on the
packaging. If no such information is to be found, however,
a storage period of 3 months from the date of purchase
