Freezing and storing food (depending on model)

Before placing food in the freezer compartment

^Turn the temperature selector to a middle to low temperature for approx. 4 hours before placing fresh food in the freezer compartment. This helps food that is already in the freezer to stay frozen.

Placing food in the freezer section

^Place the food flat on the bottom of the freezer compartment so that it freezes through to the core as quickly as possible.

^Make sure that the packaging and containers are dry to prevent them sticking together when frozen.

When freezing, make sure that food already frozen does not come into contact with fresh food being frozen as this could cause the frozen food to begin to defrost.

^After 24 hours, turn the temperature selector back to a medium setting.

Defrosting

Frozen food can be defrosted in different ways:

–in a microwave oven,

–in an oven using the "Fan" or "Defrost" setting,

–at room temperature,

–in the refrigerator (the cold given off by the frozen food helps to keep the food cold),

–in a steam oven.

Poultry It is particularly important to observe food hygiene rules when defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid from defrosted poultry. Pour it away and wash the container it was in, the sink and your hands. Danger of salmonella poisoning.

Fruit should be defrosted at room temperature in its packing, or in a covered bowl.

Most vegetables can be cooked while still frozen. Just put straight into boiling water or hot fat. The cooking time is slightly less than that of fresh vegetables due to changes in the cell structure.

Never re-freeze partially or fully defrosted food. Consume defrosted food as soon as possible as it will lose its nutritional value and spoil if left for too long. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.
