The fresh foods to be frozen must be fresh and
of the best quality.
The size of each pack should be small enough to
ensure that it is used in one go. Small packs
freeze more quickly and uniformly and give better
results.
Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen.
Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty
food, salt reduces the storage time.
Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing
bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal. Stick a label on each
pack showing the contents and date of freezing.
This makes it easy to check storage times. The
same information can be copied onto the record
card in the door.
Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy
drink in the freezer as they may explode.
Containers with a lid must not be filled to the
brim.
Do not open the door or place extra fresh food in
the freezer next to food which is already frozen
as this could cause the temperature of the frozen
food to rise and its quality and storage life to
reduce.
In the first compartment, produce must only be
starked up to the mark on the drawer soas to
ensure that air circulation is not obstructed.
Frozen food storage
Storing ready-frozen foods is quite straightforward.
The packs can be placed beside each other or on
top of each other.
You are strongly advised to place ready-frozen food
in the compartment as quickly as possible after pur-
chase and we therefore recommend that you buy
them fast. Also ensure that the external packaging is
intact.
Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen
water droplets on the pack could indicate that the
product has not been kept at a suitable temperature
and that it may have lost its original quality. Partially
thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be con-
sumed within 24 hours. Never exceed the storage
times indicated.
Do not open the freezer door too often and do not
leave open longer than necessary.
Important
Do not consume ice-lollies which have just
come out of the freezer. Their extremely low
temperature can cause frost burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause
skin abrasions or "frost/freezer burns".
Caution
In the event of a power cut the food in the
freezer will not be affected if the power cut
is short and if the freezer is full. Do not open
the door. Should the food begin to thaw, it
must be consumed quickly and must not be
re-frozen.
Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depend-
ing on the type of food and the size of the packs.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the refriger-
ation compartment and small pieces of meat or
poultry can even be cooked while still frozen, but
you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked
through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the
oven instructions, particularly regarding the place-
ment of aluminium wrapping in the oven.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with a plastic ice cube
tray.
Fill the tray 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and
place in one of the freezer drawers.
To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a
slight twist to release the cubes.
Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds
when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or
tubing at the rear, to the cooling evaporator.
When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being
pumped round, and you will hear a whirring sound
or pulsating noise from the compressor.
A thermostat controls the compressor, and you will
hear a faint 'click' when the thermostat cuts in and
out.
