HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
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.
