Hints for freezing
● When first starting-up or after a period out of use, let
the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher
settings before putting food in the compartment.
● Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be
rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible
to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
● Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene
food wraps which are air tight.
● Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food
which is already frozen to avoid temperature rise of
the latter. Iced products, if consumed immediately
after removal from the freezer compartment, will
probably cause frost burns to the skin.
● It is recommended to label and date each frozen
package in order to keep track of the storage time.
Hints for the storage of frozen food
● Ensure that frozen food has been stored correctly by
the food retailer.
● Once defrosted, food will deteriorate rapidly and
should not be re-frozen. Do not exceed the storage
period indicated by the food manufacturer.
