• To avoid increase in temperature of
already frozen food, do not place fresh
unfrozen food directly next to it. Place
food at room temperature in the part of
the freezer compartment where there is
no frozen food.
• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice
lollies immediately after taking them out
of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.
• Do not re-freeze defrosted food. If the
food has defrosted, cook it, cool it down
and then freeze it.

Shopping tips
After grocery shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not
damaged - the food could be
deteriorated. If the package is swollen or
wet, it might have not been stored in the
optimal conditions and defrosting may
have already started.
• To limit the defrosting process buy frozen
goods at the end of your grocery
shopping and transport them in a
thermal and insulated cool bag.
• Place the frozen foods immediately in the
freezer after coming back from the shop.
• If food has defrosted even partially, do
not re-freeze it. Consume it as soon as
possible.
• Respect the expiry date and the storage
information on the package.
