PLACING THE FOOD

3.2 Deep-Freeze Compartments

• The freezer compartment is used for storing frozen foods for a long time or for producing
ice.
• If you leave the door of freezer open for a long time, frosting will appear on the lower
stage of freezer. Thus, air circulation will be obstructed. In order to avoid this, first unplug
the cord and wait until thawed. After ice melts, you should clean the freezer.
• You can take off baskets, cover, etc. to increase storing volume of freezer.
• Volume specified on the product label shows the value without baskets, covers, etc.
IMPORTANT
Please never refreeze frozen food after thawing them.
It may be hazardous to your health as it may lead to food poisoning.
• Do not place hot food to the freezer before cooling them. This may cause other frozen
food in the freezer to get decayed.
• When buying frozen food, make sure that it was frozen under appropriate conditions and
its package is not torn.
• In case of humidification on package of frozen food and a smelly odour, food may have
been stored under inappropriate conditions beforehand and it may have gotten decayed.
Do not buy those kinds of food.
• Storing time for frozen food may differ according to the ambient temperature, frequency
of door openings, thermostat adjustments, type of food and the time between the buying
of the food and placing of the food in the freezer. Always follow instructions on the
package and do not exceed storing period.
• Note: If frozen food taken out of freezer of refrigerator is placed into bottom compartment
one day before, it promotes refrigerator by preserving its temperature there, so energy
will be saved. If you put the material in the deep freeze to an open area, energy loss
occurs.
Some spices in cooked food (aniseed, basil, dill, vinegar, spice mix, ginger, garlic, onion,
mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, bologna sausage etc.) may have a foul taste when
stored for a long time. Therefore, frozen food should be spiced just a little or spice should be
added after the food is thawed.
The storing time for the food depends on the oil used. Margarines, veal fat, olive oil and
butter are suitable, peanut oil and lard are not suitable.
Cooked food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic containers, other food should be frozen
wrapped in plastic foil or in plastic bags.
Some suggestions on the placing and storing of your food in the freezer compartment are
supplied pages 19, 20 and 21.
