period of time indicated on packaging. The freezer can also
be used to freeze fresh food by positioning it on the rack;

frozen.
The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours is

Important:
Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in:
• aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight plastic bags,
polythene containers with lids or freezer containers suitable
for freezing fresh food.

door during such periods.

The table alongside shows the recommended maximum
storage time for frozen fresh foods.
When purchasing frozen food products:
• Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen food in
damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package is

under optimal conditions and defrosting may have already
begun.
• When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and
transport the products in a thermally insulated cool bag.
• Place the items in the freezer compartment as soon as you get
home.
• If food has defrosted even partially, do not re-freeze it.
Consume within 24 hours.
• Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum.
Respect the best-before date on the package.
• Always observe the storage information on the package.
Making ice cubes
• Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 with water and place it at the bottom
of the freezer compartment.
If the tray sticks to the bottom of the compartment, do not use
pointed or sharp instruments to detach it.
