Storage Of Frozen Food; Cold Accumulators - AEG Electrolux freezer User Manual

28 Daily use
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.
To utilize the maximum quantity indicated on the rating plate, remove all the drawers
from the freezer compartment.
To guarantee the best functionality and perform-
ance of the appliance, the food must be not
placed in contact with the back wall of the freez-
er in the area as shown in the figure.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power
has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under
"rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and
then re-frozen (after cooling).
Frozen Food Calendar
The symbols show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods.
Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the
quality of the foods and treating before freezing.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator com-
partment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cook-
ing will take longer.

Cold accumulators

One or more cold accumulators are supplied in the freezer; these increase the length of
time for which food will keep in the event of a power failure or breakdown.
