Freezing food

Set the freezer to quick-freezing operational status.
Wait at least 3 hours before introducing fresh foods
into the freezer if it has only recently been turned
on.
If the freezer has already been working for some
time, turn the respective knob to the «S» position at
least 24 hours before introducing the food into the
freezer in order to ensure better freezing results.
This period of time may be shortened according to
the quantity of food.
When quick-freezing is being performed, the
compressor works continuously, employing all of its
refrigerating power to the maximum.
Keep the knob as it is for another 24 hours after the
introduction of the food into the freezer and then
return the knob to the «N» position.
Bear in mind the freezing capacity of your freezer;
that is, the maximum quantity of food that may be
frozen in 24 hours.
This freezing capacity is 18 kg.
Distribute the packages as shown in Figure 7.
The wire shelf should be turned downwards.
Arrange the foods to be frozen in the upper
compartment, so that these do not come into contact
with already-frozen products because the higher
surface temperature of the food to be frozen might
cause an increase in the surface temperature of the
already frozen products.
When the necessary freezing time has elapsed,
distribute the newly-frozen foods into the drawers
to free the compartment for new foods to be frozen.

Rules to observe when freezing foods
All products to be frozen must be fresh and of
excellent quality.
Each freezing package must be adjusted to the
family's consumption quantity in order to be used
just once.
Small-sized freezing packages allow a more rapid
and uniform freezing.
Do not forget that once frozen foods have thawed
out, they spoil rapidly.
Low-fat content foods are better conserved in the
freezer than those with higher fat content. Salt
(whenever present) reduces the duration of
satisfactory conservation.
Foods to be frozen must be enclosed in air-tight
sacks or containers especially indicated for this
purpose.
Close these sacks or containers tightly to eliminate
all air.
Never place bottles or cans of carbonated beverages
in the freezer. These might explode.
Never introduce hot foods or liquids.
Never fill the freezing sacks or containers with
covers to the brim.
Do not consume certain products (popsicles, etc.)
immediately after removing them from the freezer,
because their extremely low temperature might
cause burns.
Indicate the freezing date on every sack or
container as a means of controlling conservation
times.
Never open the freezer door or introduce new foods
to be frozen whenever a Quick-freezing phase is
already in progress.
A special card is located in the holder on the inner
door of the freezer compartment. On the upper part
it shows pictures of different types of food followed
by a figure. These figures indicate the maximum
storage time, in months, for each type of food.
Details of food being stored, can also be written in
pencil on the lower part of the card.
Important
When electrical current happens to be cut off, the
freezer door must not be opened. If the power
failure is short (up to 6-8 hours) and the freezer is
full, there is no risk that the food will spoil.
If the power failure lasts longer, the food must be
consumed as rapidly as possible, or otherwise
cooked and re-frozen again.
