contaminating each other.
Do not put packages and food in contact with the wall at the back of the appliance, this is a
particularly cold and damp area of the appliance and water droplets and frost condense there as
part of your refrigerator's normal operation.
The coldest area, indicated by the logo, is designed for delicate, sensitive and highly perishable
food: meat, poultry, fish, cooked meats, prepared dishes, ready-made salads, egg or cream-based
dishes and pastries, fresh pasta, pastry, pizza/quiches, fresh produce and raw milk cheese, ready-
to-use vegetables sold in plastic bags and, more generally, any fresh product whose consume-by
date is linked to its storage at a temperature of +4°C or below.
FROZEN AND DEEP- FROZEN FOOD
Your domestic appliance enables you to freeze food, it lowers its core temperature rapidly and you
can therefore keep it longer.
Deep-freezing is an industrial process that is quicker and more intense that domestic freezing. The
products you purchase from the shops are deep-frozen.
PREPARING FOOD FOR FREEZING
Freezing does not sterilize. It is therefore important to observe some simple hygiene rules
when preparing your food for freezing: wash your hands before you touch the food and clean
the kitchen tools you have just used before using them again.
Only freeze fresh, good quality food. Refer to the table "Food Freezing Guide" to know which
products you can freeze and how long you can keep them.
Blanch fruit and vegetables before freezing them to preserve their color, smell, taste and vitamins:
plunge them in boiling water for few moments.
Divide the food you wish to freeze into small individual portions corresponding to one meal each.
Small portions freeze quicker at their core.
Pack the food hermetically so that they do not lose their flavor or dry up. Use plastic bags,
polyethylene film, aluminum foil or special freezer containers for this. If you are using plastic bags,
compress them to eliminate the air before sealing them hermetically.
Note on each package:
-The freezing date
-The consume-by date
-The type of food contained
-The number of portions contained
If you are purchasing deep-frozen food, pick it up last when you are shopping.
Check that:
- The packaging isn't damaged
- They are not covered in a layer of frost (which means that they have partially defrosted)
Pack them in an isotherm bag or in newspaper. Transport them quickly and store them immediately.
Comply with the maximum storage dates shown on the pack. Your appliance has a *** freezer
compartment.
ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR FREEZER
Do not put fresh food next to food that has already been frozen to avoid causing the frozen food to
warm up.
The maximum weight of food that you can freeze over 24 hours is shown on the information
plate (inside your appliance's refrigerator section near the bottom of the left-hand wall) under
the heading: "CAPACITE DE CONGELATION/ FREEZING CAPACITY (kg/24h)".
