Freezing Fresh Food - Beko CS 137140 Bedienungsanleitung

B) Freezer compartment
Defrosting is very straightforward
and without mess, thanks to a special
defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a
frost layer of around 7 (1/4") mm
has formed. To start the defrosting
procedure, switch off the appliance
at the socket outlet and pull out the
mains plug.
All food should be wrapped in several
layers of newspaper and stored in a
cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Containers of warm water may be
placed carefully in the freezer to speed
up the defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
objects, such as knives or forks to
remove the frost.
Never use hair dryers, electrical
heaters or other such electrical
appliances for defrosting.
Sponge out the defrost water
collected in the bottom of the freezer
compartment. After defrosting, dry the
interior thoroughly.
Insert the plug into the wall socket
and switch on the electricity supply.

Freezing fresh food

• It must be preferred to wrap or cover
the food before placing them in the
refrigerator.
• Hot food must cool down to the room
temperature before putting them in
the refrigerator.
• The foodstuff that you want to freeze
must be fresh and in good quality.
• Foodstuff must be divided into
portions according to the family's daily
or meal based consumption needs.
• The foodstuff must be packaged in an
airtight manner to prevent them from
drying even if they are going to be
kept for a short time.
• Materials to be used for packaging
must be tear-proof and resistant to
cold, humidity, odor, oils and acids
and they must also be airtight.
Moreover, they must be well closed
and they must be made from easy-
to-use materials that are suitable for
deep freeze usage.
• Frozen food must be used
immediately after they are thawed and
they should never be re-frozen.
• Please observe the following
instructions to obtain the best results.
1. Do not freeze too large quantities
of food at one time. The quality of
the food is best preserved when it
is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
2. Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the cooling
system to operate continuously until
the food is frozen solid.
