• After this period, place the fresh food in freezing
compartment I.
• Do not let the already frozen packages touch the fresh ones.
• After 24 hours you may relocate the food to the storage
compartments (II) and repeat the freezing procedure if
required.
• Fresh food should be packed into airtight containers or
packaging. This will help to make sure that the food doesn't
dry out or lose its fl avour. It will also ensure that fl avour does
not transfer from other foods.
• The food should be placed on the freezer compartment's base.
Do not allow fresh food to touch items that are already frozen.
• After 24 hours you should check that the fresh food is
satisfactorily frozen. If it is then the fast freeze function should
be switched off.
• Freezer bags, polythene wraps, aluminium foil (extra thick)
and special cans for frozen foods are suitable packaging for
storing frozen goods in.
• Tape, rubber bands or plastic clips are suitable for sealing
bags and wrappings.
• Before sealing a suitable bag, you should compress the air out
of it, as this will help the food to freeze more easily.
• Flat packages freeze more easily.
• If you are freezing liquid, then do not fi ll the container to the
brim. Liquids will expand when being frozen.
• Do not place bottles (glass or tin) containing liquids
(especially sparkling liquids) into the freezer as they could
cause the bottle to burst during freezing.
