Always mark packs with the date of freezing, quantity and type of food and make sure that
foods are fresh and in good condition.
Storing frozen foods
•
When purchasing frozen foods, always take care that the pack is not damaged, that the
product is not past its sell-by date and that the thermometer of the freezer in which the
products are displayed for sale does not show a temperature above -18°C. Also note the
temperature advice, storage period and modes of consumption stated by the producer.
•
Purchased foods should also be protected using suitable insulated containers during
transportation to eliminate the risk of thawing. An increase in temperature might reduce
their storage life and adversely affect their quality.
•
Do not purchase frozen foods which are carrying too much frost; they might already have
been thawed.
Thawing frozen foods
•
Partially thawed foods should be eaten as soon as possible. Low temperatures preserve
foods, but they do not destroy the micro-organisms which are activated after thawing, which
may cause the stored foods to deteriorate. If thawed foods smell and look normal, they can
be cooked and if required re-frozen once they have cooled.
•
Depending on their type and intended use, frozen foods can be thawed correctly at room
temperature, in the refrigerator, in an electric oven (conventional or fan), or in a microwave
oven using the relevant function.
Making ice-cubes
Fill the tray provided 2/3 full of water or any other liquid you wish to freeze. Place it in the freezer
compartment, making sure that its bottom is dry so that it will not stick to the shelf of the
compartment. To detach the ice-cubes, twist the tray slightly or place it under running water for
a few seconds.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment has automatic defrosting. During normal operation of the
refrigerator, frost forms on its back wall when the compressor is working and dissolves when it
is not in operation. When the compressor is not working, the frost which has built up on the
back-wall melts and the water flows into the opening provided in the bottom of the body of the
refrigerator. From here, it flows into the tray on the compressor, where it evaporates.
Warning:
the amount of ice which forms on the back wall may vary with
changes in weather conditions (temperature and humidity), the frequency
with which the door is opened, the appliance's operating temperatures and
the quantity of fresh foods stored inside (especially fruit and vegetables).
