Freezing Fresh Food; Recommendations For Preservation Of Frozen Food - Beko DNE 61100 DPX Manual

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.
• 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.
• Food to be frozen must be put in the
freezer compartment. (They should not be
allowed to come in contact with the previously
frozen items to prevent their partial thawing.
Freezing capacity of our product is given in the
technical specifications of your refrigerator.)
• Periods given in the information about
deep freeze must be obeyed for storage
times.
• 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.
3. Take special care not to mix already frozen
food and fresh food.
Recommendations for
preservation of frozen food
• Prepacked commercially frozen food
should be stored in accordance with the
frozen food manufacturer's instructions
for a
compartment.
• To ensure that the high quality achieved
by the frozen food manufacturer and the food
retailer is maintained, the following should be
remembered:
1. Put packages in the freezer as quickly as
possible after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are labeled and
dated.
3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best Before"
dates on the packaging.
If there is a power failure do not open the
freezer door. Even if the power failure lasts
up to the "Temperature Increasing Time"
indicated in the "Technical specifications of
your refrigerator" section, frozen food will not
be affected. In case the failure lasts longer, the
food must be checked and when necessary,
must be consumed immediately or must be
frozen after cooked.
Defrosting
The fridge and freezer compartments defrost
automatically.
