Frozen food storage
When you first start the freezer or if the freezer
has been out of use for some time, we advise you
to run your appliance for at least two hours in the
«fast freeze* mode before storing frozen food.
To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, we strongly recommend that you make
sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were
adequately stored by the retailer and, furthermore,
be sure that these frozen foodstuffs are transferred
from the foodstore to the consumer in the shortest
possible time (a temperature increase of the frozen
food could shorten its storage period).
It is also advisable not to exceed the storage period
indicated by the producer of the food.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Attention
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can possibly result in a low
temperature skin burn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or "frost/freezer burns".
If there is a power failure during the storage of
frozen food, do not open the door during the whole
time of the power failure. If the freezer is fully
loaded, the frozen food will not be affected if the
power cut is of short duration; otherwise, it is
recommended to consume the food within a very
short time.
Ice making
Fill the ice tray with water to the top of each ice
cube compartment, and place it in the freezer
compartment. To release the ice cubes, twist the
tray along its length.
Never use a sharp instrument to remove ice tray.
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used,
can be thawed in the fridge or at room
temperature depending on the time available.
Small food items may even be cooked from frozen;
in this case cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be eaten as soon as
possible or thrown away. Alternatively, if the food
is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted
it can be cooked and then refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.
