As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer
must have the capacity to freeze 4,5 kg of
food items at -18°C or lower temperatures at
25°C room temperature in 24 hours for each
100 litres of freezer compartment volume.
Food products can only be preserved for ex-
tended periods at or below temperature of
-18°C .
You can keep the foods fresh for months (in
deep freezer at or below temperatures of
-18°C).
The food products to be frozen must not
contact the already-frozen food inside to
avoid partial defrosting.
Boil the vegetables and filter the water to ex-
tend the frozen storage time. Place the food
in air-tight packages after filtering and place
in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce,
celery, boiled eggs, potatoes and similar
food items should not be frozen. In case
these foods are frozen, only nutritional values
and eating qualities will be negatively af-
fected. A rotting threatening human health is
not in question.
Placing the food
Freezer compartment shelves:Different
frozen food like meat, fish, ice cream, veget-
ables etc.
Cooler compartment shelves:Food items
inside pots, capped plate and capped
cases, eggs (in capped case)
Cooler compartment door shelves :Small
and packaged food or beverages
Crisper:Vegetables and fruits
Fresh food compartment:Delicatessen
(breakfast food, meat products to be con-
sumed in short notice)
Storing food in the cooler compartment
• Compartment temperatures rise promin-
ently if compartment door is opened and
closed frequently and kept open for a long
time, this can reduce the life span of the
food and cause the food to go bad.
• In order not to cause odour and taste
changes, the food should be stored in the
closed containers.
• Do not store too much food in your refri-
gerator. To achieve a better and homo-
geneous cooling, place the food separ-
ately in a way that cold air can wander
through them.
• Provide air flow by leaving a space
between the food and internal wall. If you
lean the food against the rear wall, the
food may freeze.
• Bring cooked hot meals to the room tem-
perature before placing them in the refri-
gerator. Then, you can place the tepid
meal in the lower shelves of your refriger-
ator. Do not place the tepid meals close to
the foods which may easily spoil.
• Defrost your frozen food in the fresh food
compartment. Thereby, you can cool fresh
food compartment by using frozen food
and save energy.
• Storing unripe tropical fruits (mango,
melon varieties, papaya, banana, pine-
apple) in the refrigerator may speed up the
ripening process This is not recommended
because it will cause shorter storage time.
• You should store onions, garlics, gingers
and other root vegetables in dark and cold
room conditions, not in the refrigerator.
• If you notice that a food has spoiled in the
refrigerator, throw away that food and
clean the accessories which have come
into contact with it.
• In order to cool the meals like soups and
stews, which are cooked in the large pots,
quickly, you can put them in the refriger-
ator by separating them into their own
shallow containers.
• Do not place the unpackaged food close
to the eggs.
• Keep the fruits and vegetables separately
and store each variety together (for ex-
ample; apples with apples, carrots with
carrots)
• Take green vegetables out of the plastic
bag and place them in the refrigerator after
wrapping them in a paper towel or drying
cloth. If you wash this type of food before
placing them in the refrigerator, remember
to dry them.
