Freezing and storing food
Cool pack
The cool pack prevents the temperature in the freezer rising too quickly in the event of a power cut.
Place the cool pack in the upper drawer directly on top of food, or in the freezer tray to save space. The cool pack will be at its most effective after it has been in the freezer for approx. 24 hours.
If there is a power cut, place the cool pack directly on top of the frozen food in the upper drawer so that the food will be kept cold for as long as possible.
When placing fresh food in the freezer, use the cool pack to separate the fresh food from the food which is already frozen so that the frozen food does not begin to thaw.
The cool pack can also be used in a cool bag to keep food or drinks cool for a short period of time.
