Use
Freezer
• The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
• Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be
stored for more than three months after the purchase date.
• Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food
after thawing.
• Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
• Label the food before freezing with information including type of food and dates of storage and expiry.
• Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is required
to prevent wastage.
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment as they could explode.
• Only open the door for as long as is necessary. Leaving the door open for long periods will affect the temperature inside the
appliance and waste energy.
• Ensure all compartments are fully closed after use.
