Freezer Compartment 
 

•

Your freezer’s chief function is to allow you to store 
deep-frozen or frozen foods for long periods of time, 

and to make ice cubes. 

•

DO NOT put warm food into the freezer.  

•

DO NOT put fresh or warmish food with frozen food 
side-by-side as the former can thaw the latter and 
cause spoilage. 

•

While freezing fresh food (meat, fish, mincemeat, 
etc.), divide into bagged parts so you can access them 

separately. 

•

The instructions shown on frozen food packages should 
always be carefully followed.  If no information is 
provided, food should not be stored for more than 3 

months from the purchase date. 

•

When buying frozen food, ensure that these have been 
frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packaging 
is intact.  Store your frozen goods in your freezer as 

soon as possible after purchase. 

•

If a package of frozen food shows signs of swelling or 
wet marks, it is probable that the food had previously 
been poorly stored and has now deteriorated.  Discard 

it. 

•

The Storage life of frozen food depends on the room 
temperature, thermostat setting, how often the door is 

opened, the type of food and how long it has taken to 
get the food from the store to your freezer.  Always 
follow the printed packaging instructions and never 

exceed the maximum storage life indicated. 

•

Use the fast freezing shelf (the middle drawer of the 

freezer) to freeze home cooking
