Freezing
Consult a specialized manual when packaging foods
for freezing.
- Remember that you should never re-freeze products
you have allowed to thaw, even if only partially: cook the
food, then either eat (within 24 hours) or re-freeze it.
- When freezing fresh foods, remember that they should
not touch other previously frozen or deep frozen foods.
Place the food that you wish to freeze in the top com-
partment where the temperature will fall below -18°C,
which is ideal for freezing food properly. Remember that
proper conservation depends on the speed of freezing.
- Do not open the freezer door during freezing.
- Freeze only the quantities (in kg) shown on the data
plate on the left of the crisper.
- When using the refrigerator for the first time, or after it
has not been turned off, you can place food into the
freezer only after is has been run for 6-8 hours, When
the freezer is ready, insert the fresh food which is to be
frozen into the appropriate compartment and turn knob
A to setting 3. After approximately 24 hours, the freez-
ing process will be complete.
Energy Saving Tips
- Install the appliance correctly
This means that the appliance should be installed away
from heat sources or direct sunlight in a well ventilated
room.
- Correct temperature settings
Set the refrigerator or freezer temperature knob to one
of the medium settings. Very low temperatures will not
only consume a great deal of energy but will neither im-
prove or lengthen the storage life of the food. Excessively
low temperature may in fact spoil vegetables, cold meats
and cheese.
- Do not overfill your appliance
Remember that proper storage of food requires good air
circulation. Overfilling your appliance will prevent this cir-
culation and overwork the compressor.
- Shut the doors
Open your appliance only when strictly necessary; remem-
ber that every time you open the door most of the cold
air will be lost. The motor will have to run, and consume
energy, to restore the correct temperature.
- For the best conservation and defrosting, remember to freeze
small portions; this will ensure rapid and uniform freezing.
Mark package with a description of the contents and the
date it was frozen.
- In the case of power failure or breakdown, do not open
the freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer ensuring that foods are conserved for
at least 9-14 hours.
- Do not store full bottles in the freezer since they could
explode when they freeze. (Remember that liquids in-
crease in volume when frozen).
- Fill the ice trays so that they are no more than 3/4 full.
- If the room temperature remains below 14°C for an
extended period of time the freezer will not reach the
temperatures required for storage, and storage life will
be shorter. In this case, frozen foodstuffs should be used
within a relatively short period of time.
- It is not necessary to defrost the freezer compartment
because the forced cold-air cooling system does not cause
frost or ice to form on the walls of the compartment. In
addition, the froozen food does not become couvered in ice
does not stick together, does not charge in appearance and
can be easily recognized.
- Check the door seals
keep the gaskets clean and soft so that they fit closely against
the door to ensure that no cold air is lost.
- Never store hot foods
A container of hot food in the refrigerator will increase the
temperature significantly; allow food to cool to room tem-
perature before storing.
