Hints for storage of frozen food

To get the best out of your freezer, in the case of

storage of commercially frozen food you should

ensure that:

• Make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs

were adequately stored by the retailer.

• Be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from

the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible

time.

• Not open the door frequently or leave it open

longer than absolutely necessary.

• Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and

cannot be refrozen.

• Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the

food manufacturer.

• Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause

the skin to be freeze burnt.

Maintenance

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing process,

here are some important hints:

• The maximum quantity of food which can be

frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate.

• The freezing process takes 24 hours. No further

food to be frozen should be added during this

period.

• Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly

cleaned, foodstuffs.

• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be

rapidly and completely frozen and to make it

possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity

required.

• Lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones;

salt reduces the storage life of food.

• Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene

and make sure that the packages are airtight.

• During the freezing process, do not add further

foods for freezing and do not open the freezer

door.

• The foods for freezing should not be placed in

contact with already frozen foods, but put in the

special freezing compartment. This will stop the

temperature of already frozen foods from rising.

• Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks,

etc.) in the freezer as they may burst.

Defrosting

The freezer compartment will become progressively

covered with frost. This should be removed with the

special plastic scraper provided, whenever the

thickness of the frost exceeds 1/4".

During this operation it is not necessary to switch off

the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.

However, when the ice becomes very thick on the

inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out

and it is advisable to carry out this operation when

the appliance is empty.

To carry out complete defrosting proceed as follows:

1. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers

of newspaper and put it in a cool place.

2. Turn the thermostat control to the «O» setting.

3. Leave the door open.

4. Remove the three large drawers.

5. When defrosting is completed, remove the water

that has collected in the small bottom drawer and

dry the interior thoroughly.

Keep the scraper for future use.

6. Turn the thermostat control to a medium setting

and, after letting the appliance run for at least two

hours in the «fast freeze» mode, replace the

previously removed food into the compartments.

Warning

Never use metal objects for defrosting your

appliance as it may get damaged.

Do not use a mechanical device or any

artificial means to speed up the thawing

process other than those recommended by

the manufacturer.

A temperature increase of the frozen food

shortens its safe storage period.

• Never put hot foods or liquids in the freezer and

take care not to ½ll recipients up to the brim if they

are covered with a lid.

• It is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each

individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the

storage time.
