Freezer compartment

• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen foods for long
periods of time and making ice cubes.
• To freeze fresh food, ensure that as much of the surface as possible
of food to be frozen is in contact with the cooling surface.
• Do not put fresh food with frozen on side by side as it can thaw the
frozen food.
• While freezing fresh foods(i.e meat,fish and mincemeat), divide them
in parts you will use in one time.
• Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods into freezer and
remember to consume them in as short period of time.
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment. As it will disturb
the frozen foods.
• For storing the frozen foods;the instructions shown on frozen food
packages should always be followed carefully and if no information is
provided food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the
purchased date.
• When buying frozen foods ensure that these have been frozen at
suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen foods should be transported in appopriate containers to
maintain the quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing
surfaces of the unit in the shortest possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal
swelling it is probable that it has been previously stored at an
unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
• The strorage life of froozen foods depends on the room temperature,
thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and
the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to
your home. Always follow the instruductions printed on the package
and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
Not that; if you want to open again immediately after closing the freezer
door, it will not be opened easily. It's quite normal! After reaching
equilibrium condition, the door will be opened easily.
Important note:
• Frozen foods, when thawed, should be cooked just like fresh foods.
If they are not cooked after being thawed they must NEVER be re-
frozen.
