Freezing
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions äs freezing
alone does not sterilise the food. It is advisable to freeze the food by packing it into separate meal
portions and not in bulk form. Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs into the freezer! Prior to
storing the frozen food, pack it in plastic bags, polyethylene sheets, aluminium foil or freezing
Containers (this material is found on the market and is labelled "suitable for freezing"). Each pack
or Container, etc. which you will störe into the freezer must follow the instructions below:
• freezing date and expiry date;
• number of portions;
• the glass Containers must be of the Pyrex type and MUST NEVER be fHled to the brim:
(freezing expands liquids);
• the packs must be pressed down for air elimination within and must be äs flat äs possibk;
• all frozen food packs, whatever the type, must be closed in order to protect the food.
The maximum quantity of food which can be stored within a period of 24 hours is shown on the
data table. Never störe a higher quantity of food than indicated.
Do not place fresh foodstuffs next to frozen food. This would cause an increase in the temperature
of the frozen foodstuffs.________________________________________
tongue damage.
In case of prolonged current absence transfer
the frozen foodstuffs into another working
freezer.
If the food stuffs have been thawed, even
partially, you may rc-frecze them only after
having cooked them!
Before freezing fresh foodstuffs, you must empty the fast freezing compartment, place frozen
foodstuffs into the preservation compartments, then activate the fast freezing. After 24 hours you
may place the fresh foodstuffs into the fast freezing compartment.
The quick-freezing compartments are the first two at the top.
Walt a further 24 hours before disconnecting the fast freezing and regulate the thermostat onto the
preservation position.
DEFREEZING
BMsa&s&ozaa ~ •
Defrost foodstuffs for immediate use only. Defrosting can be carried out in the following four
manners:
• inside the refrigerator,
• in ambient temperatures;
• inside an oven at 40/50° or in a micro-wave oven;
• directly by cooking.
Defrosting in the refrigerator is a slower but safer Operation and allows you to save electricity. The
freezing temperature of the foodstuff is released into the refrigerator during defrosting.
