The Freezer

Freezing fresh food

The appliance can be used to freeze fresh food in the quantity specified on the rating plate. Freezing fresh food should always be done after proper preparation as follows.

Set the thermostat knob to a medium position.

Transfer the previously frozen food to another basket or baskets. Put the fresh food into the upper basket, leaving enough space for airflow.

Run the appliance this way for 24 hours.

After 24 hours set the thermostat knob according to your choice or leave it in a medium position, which is in general appropriate for everyday cooling needs.

Setting the thermostat knob to a higher (e.g. maximum) position is not recommended.

Although doing so would make the freezing time shorter, on the other hand the temperature of the fridge compartment may go permanently below 0°C, what yields freezing the food and drinks stored there.

Never freeze food in larger quantities than shown in the "Technical data" at the same time, otherwise food may not be thoroughly

frozen.

Do not make ice during freezing preferably, because making ice reduces freezing capacity.

Frozen Food Storage

When turning on the freezer for the first time or if the freezer has been out of use for some time, we advise you to run your appliance for at least 2 hours before storing frozen food.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the manufacturer.

Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than is necessary.

You can put frozen products into the basket(s) after freezing has finished. This will enable you to make room in the freezing compartment for other food. Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate foods already stored.

If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the baskets except the lowest one from appliance and place food on the shelves.

Important

Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.

Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer can cause a low temperature skin burn.

In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and the freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the

food begin to thaw it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and Tips)

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

Thawing

Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the fridge or at room temperature, depending on the time available. Small food items may even be cooked from frozen, in this case cooking will take longer.

Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should either be eaten as soon as possible, or thrown away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen.

Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.

)To Make Ice Cubes

1.Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full with cold water, place in the freezing compartment and leave to freeze.

2.To remove the cubes twist the tray or hold it under running water for a few seconds.

Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment by using pointed

or sharp edged objects.
