General use of the Freezer
• The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen
food
• Never put hot foods in the freezer, allow food to cool fully
before storing them in 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
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before
putting into the fridge
• 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
compartments as they could explode
• Check the rating plate to confirm the maximum amount of fresh
food that can be frozen within a 24 hour period
• Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount
• To freeze fresh food more quickly, set the temperature control to
setting 5 a few hours prior to placing food in the freezer
remembering to return the setting back to your preferred
setting once the food is frozen

Storage and use
This freezer is suitable for storing deep frozen food (food which
has already been frozen before being added to the freezer), for
storing fresh food for a short period (2-3 weeks) by freezing it and
for making ice and ice cream.
Always remember to observe and
adhere to the recommended expira-
tion date of food.
Fresh food, and food which needs to
be stored for a long period, should
be kept at a temperature of -18°c or
below.
For this, we recommend using setting
3 or 4
If food only needs to be stored for
a short period then a setting of 2 or
3 will suffice.
