Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the
freezing process, here are some
important hints:
• Place the food to be frozen on the
freezer shelf as this is the coldest part.
• the maximum quantity of food
which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is
shown on the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24
hours. No further food to be frozen
should be added during this
period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and
thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and
completely frozen and to make it
possible subsequently to thaw only
the quantity required;
• wrap up the food in aluminium foil
or polythene and make sure that
the packages are airtight;
• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food
to touch food which is already
frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter;
• lean foods store better and longer
than fatty ones; salt reduces the
storage life of food;
• water ices, if consumed
immediately after removal from the
freezer compartment, can possibly
cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
• it is advisable to show the freezing-
in date on each individual pack to
enable you to keep tab of the
storage time;
• do n n ot p p ut c c arbonated l l iquids ( ( fizzy
drinks, e e tc.) i i n t t he f f reezer

Hints for storage of
frozen food
To obtain the best performance from
this appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially
frozen foodstuffs were adequately
stored by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are
transferred from the foodstore to
the freezer in the shortest possible
time;
• not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates
rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period
indicated by the food manufacturer.
