Freezing Fresh Food; Recommendations For Preservation Of Frozen Food - Beko DNE 65000 E Manual

Freezing fresh food

• It must be preferred to wrap or cover the food
before placing them in the refrigerator.
• Hot food must cool down to the room
temperature before putting them in the refrigerator.
• The foodstuff that you want to freeze must be
fresh and in good quality.
• Foodstuff must be divided into portions
according to the family's daily or meal based
consumption needs.
• Foodstuff must be packaged in an airtight
manner to prevent them from drying even if they
are going to be kept for a short time.
• Materials to be used for packaging must be
tear-proof and resistant to cold, humidity, odor,
oils and acids and they must also be airtight.
Moreover, they must be well closed and they
must be made from easy-to-use materials that are
suitable for deep freeze usage.
• Food to be frozen must be put in the freezer
compartment. (They should not be allowed to
come in contact with the previously frozen items to
prevent their partial thawing. Freezing capacity of
our product is given in the technical specifications
of your refrigerator.)
• Periods given in the information about deep
freeze must be obeyed for storage times.
• Frozen food must be used immediately after
they are thawed and they should never be re-
frozen.
• Please observe the following instructions to
obtain the best results.
1. Do not freeze too large quantities of food at
one time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
2. Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the cooling system to
operate continuously until the food is frozen solid.
3. Take special care not to mix already frozen
food and fresh food.
Recommendations for
preservation of frozen food
• Prepacked commercially frozen food should
be stored in accordance with the frozen food
manufacturer's instructions for a
frozen food storage compartment.
• To ensure that the high quality achieved by the
frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is
maintained, the following should be remembered:
1. Put packages in the freezer as quickly as
possible after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are labeled and dated.
3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best Before" dates
on the packaging.
If there is a power failure do not open the freezer
door. Even if the power failure lasts up to the
"Temperature Increasing Time" indicated in the
"Technical specifications of your refrigerator"
section, frozen food will not be affected. In
case the failure lasts longer, the food must be
checked and when necessary, must be consumed
immediately or must be frozen after cooked.
Defrosting
The fridge and freezer compartments defrost
automatically.
