STORING FOOD IN THE FREEZER
Store frozen food
• When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, turn the thermostat tem-
perature control to setting 5 for at least 4 hours before introducing the food to be
stored, Then adjust the thermostat to your preferred setting once the temperature in
the freezer compartment has dropped to -18°C.
• All frozen food products you purchase should be placed in the freezer as soon as
possible to avoid the frozen food from defrosting.
• Storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufac-
tures should always be followed.
Freezing fresh food
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic condi-
tions, as freezing alone does not sterilise the food. Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs
into the freezer. Prior to storing the food, pack it in plastic bags, aluminium foil or freezer
containers and place into the freezer without putting them in contact with food that has
already been frozen. See the technical data sheet at the rear of this booklet for the maxi-
mum permissible amount in kilograms of fresh food that can be frozen in any 24 hour
period with a room temperature of 25°C Never freeze more than the maximum permis-
sible (2Kg).
