Tips On Freezing; Making Ice Cubes - Baumatic BR22.8A User Manual

o The food should be placed on the freezer compartment's base.
Do not allow fresh food to touch items that are already frozen.

Tips on freezing

o Freezer bags, polythene wraps, aluminium foil (extra thick) and
special cans for frozen foods are suitable packaging for storing
frozen goods in.
o Tape, rubber bands or plastic clips are
suitable for sealing bags and wrappings.
o Before sealing a suitable bag, you should
compress the air out of it, as this will help
the food to freeze more easily.
o Flat packages freeze more easily.

Making ice cubes

o Fill the ice cube tray with water and place it in the freezer
compartment.
o After the water is completely frozen and turned to ice, you can
twist the ice cube tray (as shown in the drawing below) to
dispense the ice.
o After 24 hours you should check that the
fresh food is satisfactorily frozen. If it is
then the thermostat knob should be
turned back to its normal operating
position (between <3> and <4>). The
frozen food can then be moved from the
top drawer, into any of the other freezer
drawers.
o If you are freezing liquid, then do not fill the
container to the brim. Liquids will expand
when being frozen.
o 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.
