Freezer Compartment - Scandomestic BIF 293 User Manual

7.Freezer compartment

3-star or 4-star freezer are suitable for storing deep frozen
food (already frozen before added to the freezer), storing
fresh food for a short period (2-3 weeks) by freezing it, or
making ice, ice cream and water ice.
Recommended expiration date of food must be observed.
Freezer can be used to produce ice cubes.
1.Temperature within the freezer can be adjusted by
setting temperature regulator. For fresh food and food
which needs to be stored for a long period, -18°C or below
is recommended, as microbes can barely survive under
this temperature. Once temperature is higher than -10°C,
microbes will start to cause spoiling of food, and storage
period of food will be effectively reduced. If you need to
freeze food which is already partly or totally thawed,
please cook it before adding it to the freezer again. The
high temperature of cooking process can eliminate most
microbes.
2 Normally, when food requires only short period of
storage, select a medium setting.
3 Normally, when food requires a long period of storage,
select a high setting.
NOTE!
· Never add caned or bottled carbon dioxide drinks to the
freezer, as carbon dioxide may expand when under
freezing, and lead to explosion hazard.
· Bottled food which needs immediate cooling should be
stored in the freezer for no more than one hour before
