top shelves.

rear wall.
· Spread out the products as much

as possible to allow air to circulate
between them.
· Do not place food products which
are to be frozen directly against other
frozen food. The heat from the
unfrozen food may cause the frozen
food to thaw on the surface.
· Once frozen, re-arrange the
products and put them as close as
possible to each other. The food will
then stay cold longer in the event of a
power failure.
· Do not freeze too much food at the
same time. The freezing capacity of
the unit is indicated in the
specifications section.
Check that the cabinet is operating
and keeps the set temperature one
day after switching it on for the first
time. Only after then should the freezer
be used to freeze fresh foodstuff.

Suitable storage periods
