Thawing food
• Before eating, frozen or deep frozen food may be thawed in the refrigerator compartment
or at ambient temperature, depending on the time available.
• Some food may also be cooked directly when taken out of the freezer, while it is still frozen.
In this case, cooking will take longer.
Important In the event of accidental thawing, caused for example by a power break, quickly
eat the thawed food. Never refreeze thawed food.
Hints for the storage of frozen food
To guarantee optimum performance, comply with the following instructions:
• Ensure that frozen food has been stored correctly by the food retailer.
• Ensure that frozen food is quickly carried from the retailer to your freezer.
• Do not open the door too often or avoid leaving the door open longer than necessary.
• Once thawed, food will deteriorate rapidly and should never be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage states shown on the food.
