Freezer compartment

W Freezer compartment

The freezer compartment is suitable for:

F r e e z e r c o m p a r t m e n t

storing frozen food

■

making ice cubes

■

freezing food

■

The freezer compartment can be used to store perishable

foods long-term almost without any noticeable reduction

in quality, as the low temperatures considerably slow

down or stop deterioration. Appearance, flavour and all

valuable ingredients are largely retained.

Long-term storage of food should be at –18 °C or lower.

The time between putting fresh food in the freezer

compartment and it freezing solid depends on the

following factors:

set temperature

■

type of food

■

amount of food in the freezer compartment

■

quantity and type of storage

■

Fully utilising the freezer volume

To place the maximum quantity of frozen food in the

freezer compartment:

remove all fittings.

■

Store food directly on the shelves and on the floor of

■

the freezer compartment.

Purchasing frozen food

Ensure the packaging is not damaged.

■

Do not exceed the minimum sell-by date.

■

The temperature in the supermarket freezer must be –

■

18 °C or lower.

If possible, transport frozen food in a cool bag and

■

place quickly in the freezer compartment.

Note when loading products

Freeze large quantities of food in the top compartment.

■

This is where the food will freeze especially quickly

and gently.

Distribute food in the compartments or frozen food

■

containers.

Do not bring food which is to be frozen into contact

■

with frozen food.

If required, restack frozen food in the frozen food

containers.

Important for unrestricted air circulation in the

■

appliance:

push in frozen food container all the way.

Freezing fresh food

Freeze only fresh and undamaged food.

Food which is boiled, fried or baked is more suitable for

freezing than food which is raw.

Before freezing food, make preparations appropriate to

the food in order to retain the best possible nutritional

value, flavour and colour:

Vegetables: wash, chop, blanch.

■

Fruit: wash, pit and perhaps peel, possibly add sugar

■

or ascorbic acid solution.

Information on how to do this can be found in the relevant

literature.
