The Freezer Compartment

The symbol means that your freezer will store frozen food at -18°C (-0.4°F) or colder allowing for long term frozen food storage and freezing of fresh food. The freezer temperature is controlled automatically by the thermostat situated in the control panel.

Due to the different installations, methods of usage and weather conditions, adjustments to the temperature settings may be required.

These are best assessed against a temperature reading on a thermometer buried in the frozen food. The reading must be taken quickly as the thermometer temperature will rise rapidly after removal.

Frozen Food Storage

The appliance has the following net storage volume:

129 litres (4.6 cuft)

41.7kg (92 lb)

This is a standard measurement and the actual capacity depends upon the density and sizes of the food. The above figures are based on an average density of 0.32kg per litre (20 lb per cuft).

Pre packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions for a 4 star frozen food compartment and should be put in the freezer as soon as possible after purchase. Your freezer provides for long term storage which generally means up to 3 months but the length of the time can vary and it is important to follow the recommended times shown on packets of commercially frozen food.

Do not place sealed containers or carbonated liquids such as fizzy drinks into the freezer as it creates pressure on the container which may cause it to explode resulting to damage to the freezer.

Ice cubes and ice lollies should not be consumed immediately after removal from the freezer as it may result in low temperature skin abrasions.

Manufacturers storage times should be adhered to.

Freezing Fresh Foods

The maximum quantity of food you can freeze in 24 hours is 9kg. Place the fresh food on the top freezer shelf. Food may need rearranging to achieve this.

Frozen food should not be refrozen once it has thawed out.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or 'frost/freezer burns'.

Hints and Tips

Any opened packets of frozen food, should be rewrapped in airtight materials to prevent surface evaporation which cause s drying or 'freezer burn'.

Frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should either be used immediately or thrown away. Alternatively if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen.

Aim to check dates on packets and rotate food regularly. Although storage longer than recommended is not harmful, flavours and textures begin to change.
