 Do not place food intended for freezing next to already frozen food.
 Food intended for freezing (meat, minced meat, fi sh, etc.) should be frozen separated into portions so that
later it is easy to consume.
 Do not refreeze food that has thawed. It could present a danger to your health because it could lead to
problems such as food poisoning.
 Do not place hot meals into the freezer until they cool down. This could ruin the food that is already frozen
in the freezer.
 When purchasing frozen food check that it has been frozen in appropriate conditions and that its
packaging has not been compromised.
 When storing frozen food you should follow the storage conditions on the packaging. If none are available,
consume the food as soon as possible.
 Transport frozen food without damaging it and place it inside the freezer as soon as possible. Do not use
the shelves in the door for super freezing.
 If the food packaging is wet and the food has an unpleasant smell, it has probably been stored in
inappropriate conditions and is spoiled. Do not buy such food!
 The storage period of frozen food varies depending on the temperature in the environment, the number
of times the door is opened, the thermostat setting, type of food and the time that has passed since it
was placed into the freezer. Always follow the instructions on the packaging and never exceed the stated
storage time / expiry date.
 If you keep the freezer door open for a longer period of time or if you forget to close it, frost will form on the
inside walls of the freezer. This may hamper air circulation. To prevent this situation occurring, disconnect
the refrigerator from the electrical power socket and wait until it defrosts. You must clean the freezer after
the frost melts away.
If you wish to increase the available space inside the freezer, take out the drawers, covers, etc.
The declared volume on the label corresponds to use without drawers, covers, etc.
Ice bag
If there is an electrical power outage or another defect occurs an ice bag can be used to slow down the melting
process. You will achieve the longest storage time by placing the ice bag directly on the food in the top section.
To save space the ice bag can be place in the door area.
An ice bag can also be used to temporarily cool down food, for example in a cooling bag.
Some recommendations relating to the placement and storage of food in your freezer are noted on pages
26 and 27.
Placing fresh food into a freezer
Ensure that the freezer is clean as the freezing process itself does not sterilise food. We recommend freezing
food in the original packaging, or in various containers suitable for freezing or in special freezer bags. Never
place hot or warm dishes into the freezer. Allow dishes to fully cool down before placing them into the freezer,
wrap them in a plastic bag, aluminium foil or put them in a jar. Check the label on the freezer, to check how
many kilos of fresh food (at a room temperature of 25°C) the freezer is able to freeze in 24 hours. Never insert
more food than the permitted amount.
Never place bottles with fi zzy drinks into the freezer nor any other bottles.
For better freezing results give the food suffi cient room for air circulation.
