warm.
• During the freezing time (24 hours) do
not place other food to the freezer.
• Place your foods to the freezing shelves
or racks by spreading them so that they
will not be cramped (it is recommended
that the packaging does not come into
contact with each other).
• Frozen foods must be immediately con-
sumed in a short period of time after de-
frosting and must never be frozen again.
• Do not block the ventilation holes by put-
ting your frozen foods in front of the ven-
tilation holes located on the back surfa-
ce.

to the package and write the name of the
foods in the package and the freezing ti-

Advice on Storing Frozen Foods

te temperatures and their packages are
not broken.
• Put the packages in the freezer compart-
ment as soon as possible after purcha-
sing them.
• Make sure that the expiration date indica-
ted on the packaging is not expired befo-
re consuming the packaged ready meals
that you remove from the freezer com-

Defrosting
The ice in the freezer compartments is au-
tomatically thawed.
Freezer Details
The EN 62552 standard requires (according
to specific measurement conditions) that
at least 4.5 kg of food for each 100 litres of

Defrosting the Frozen Foods
Depending on the food diversity and the
purpose of use, a selection can be made
