4. FOOD-STORAGE TIPS

The freezer is the ideal storage location for store frozen 

food, make ice cubes and freeze fresh food in the 

freezer compartment.

The maximum number of kilograms of fresh food that 

can be frozen within a 24-hour period is indicated on

your freezer compartment, corresponding to the upper
