6. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
6.1 Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some hints:
• The maximum quantity of food which
can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on
the rating plate.
• The freezing process takes 24 hours.
No further food to be frozen should be
added during this period.
• Freeze only 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.
6.2 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 store to the freezer
in the shortest possible time;
• not open the lid 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.
