Hints for storage of frozen food
• Freezer compartment is the one marked
with
.
• The medium temperature setting ensures
good preservation of frozen food
products.
Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf life.
• The whole freezer compartment is
suitable for storage of frozen food
products.
• Leave enough space around the food to
allow air to circulate freely.
• For adequate storage refer to food
packaging label to see the shelf life of
food.
• It is important to wrap the food in such a
way that prevents water, humidity or
condensation from getting inside.
Shopping tips
After grocery shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not
damaged - the food could be
deteriorated. If the package is swollen or
wet, it might have not been stored in the
optimal conditions and defrosting may
have already started.
• To limit the defrosting process buy frozen
goods at the end of your grocery
shopping and transport them in a
thermal and insulated cool bag.
• Place the frozen foods immediately in the
freezer after coming back from the shop.
• If food has defrosted even partially, do
not re-freeze it. Consume it as soon as
possible.
• Respect the expiry date and the storage
information on the package.
