ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
•
The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food, for storing frozen
foods for the period of time indicated on packaging and for making ice cubes.
• Do not put fresh and warm food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen
food.
•
Do not put fresh and warm foods to the freezer door shelves to be frozen.
Only use the door shelves for storing frozen foods.
• While freezing fresh foods (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in
portions you will use in a single serving.
•
For storing frozen foods
, the instructions shown on frozen food packages
should always be followed carefully. If no information is provided, food should
not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
•
When buying frozen food
ensure that these have been frozen at suitable
temperatures and that the packing is intact.
•
Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the
quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit
in the shortest possible time.
•
If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling
it is probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature
and that the contents have deteriorated.
•
The storage life of frozen food
depends on the room temperature,
thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the
length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home.
Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the
maximum storage life indicated.
•
While freezing food
, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be
frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label.
• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity,
after loading the fresh food into freezer press the SF button. When the SF
mode finishes, the freezer will continue to operate according to last set
temperature.
Attention:
To save energy, when freezing small amounts of food reset the
temperature to the previous value as soon as the food is completely frozen.
