The reezer compartment
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh foods.
Freezing resh ood
When freezing fresh foods set the slider control to
the “min” position and turn the thermostat control to
a higher setting.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 6 g. of fresh
food.
Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.
After 24 hours reposition the slider control and
thermostat control to previous setting.
Important
To ensure correct operation of the appliance do not
use the appliance with the bas et or drawers
removed.
Thawing
Frozen food can be thawed in the fridge or at room
temperature depending on the time available. Small
food items may even be coo ed from frozen; in this
case coo ing will ta e longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncoo ed and has
not been completely defrosted it can be coo ed and
then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even be coo ed while still frozen, but you must
ensure that it is thoroughly coo ed through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-coo ed dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly
regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping or
containers in the oven.
De rosted cooked ood must never be re rozen.
Frozen ood storage
Frozen food can be stored in any bas et or drawer of
the freezer compartment, including the fast freeze
compartment.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than is absolutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drin s etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature s in
burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause s in abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
Important
In the event o a power ailure - DO NOT OPEN
THE DOOR, the ood in the reezer will not be
a ected i the power cut is short and the reezer
is ull.
I the temperature in the reezer rises, and the
ood begins to thaw, do not re- reeze the ood
without checking its condition.
The ollowing guidelines should assist you.
Ice-cream: once thawed should be discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: if soft should be coo ed and
used up.
Breads & Cakes: can be re-frozen without danger.
Shell ish: should be refrigerated and used up
quic ly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces o Meat: can be re-frozen providing
there are still ice crystals remaining within them.

• Keep the time between buying chilled food and
placing it in your fridge as short as possible. Tests
showed that the temperature of 1 litre of orange
juice rose to 22°C in an hour between the
supermar et and home. It then too 11 hours to
get down to 7°C in the refrigerator.
• Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as
possible.
• Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
• Cool coo ed food as quic ly as possible but do
NOT place in the refrigerator until cool. (Leave
food in a cool place in order that it can then be
put in the refrigerator as soon as possible).
• Do NOT mix raw and coo ed meat, they must be
in separate containers. Ta e care not to let the
meat juices drip onto other food. If the meat does
drip, remove everything and clean thoroughly.
• Do not store food uncovered.
• The best way to defrost food is to put it in the
refrigerator to thaw slowly.
• Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean (refer to “Maintenance and Cleaning).
• Never allow spillages to dry and harden.
• Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated
and labelled and used in date order to ensure
that food is consumed at its best.
• It is important that food is used before its “best
before” date.
• Store eggs in the egg rac provided in the
refrigerator door. Discard any bro en or chipped
eggs.
• Regularly chec the refrigerator door seal to
ensure that it is clean and free from debris.
• Always wash your hands with soapy water and
dry them with a clean towel before handling food.
• Keep wor surfaces clean and avoid cross
contamination by not using the same wor
surface or nife, without washing them thoroughly
in between.
• The fresh foods to be frozen must be fresh and of
the best quality.
• The size of each pac should be small enough to
ensure that it is used in one go . Small pac s
freeze more quic ly and uniformly and give better
results.
• Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen.
Lean food eeps better and longer than fatty food,
salt reduces the storage time.
• Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing
bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal .
• Pac aging which is swollen or has traces of
refrozen water droplets on the pac could indicate
that the product has not been ept at a suitable
temperature and that it may have lost its original
quality. Partially thawed food must not be
refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours.
Never exceed the storage times indicated.
• Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy drin
in the freezer as they may explode. Containers
with a lid must not be filled to the brim.
• Do not open the door or place extra fresh food in
the freezer next to food which is already frozen as
this could cause the temperature of the frozen
food to rise and its quality and storage life to
reduce .
• The symbols on the drawers show different types
of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for
the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether
the upper or lower value of the indicated storage
time is valid depends on the quality of the foods
and pre-treating before freezing.
HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES
Because o consumer demand, preservatives have been removed rom many pre-prepared oods. This
together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that sa e handling and
storage o ood is even more important than ever.

• Keep the time between buying chilled food and
placing it in your fridge as short as possible. Tests
showed that the temperature of 1 litre of orange
juice rose to 22°C in an hour between the
supermar et and home. It then too 11 hours to
get down to 7°C in the refrigerator.
• Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as
possible.
• Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
• Cool coo ed food as quic ly as possible but do
NOT place in the refrigerator until cool. (Leave
food in a cool place in order that it can then be
put in the refrigerator as soon as possible).
• Do NOT mix raw and coo ed meat, they must be
in separate containers. Ta e care not to let the
meat juices drip onto other food. If the meat does
drip, remove everything and clean thoroughly.
• Do not store food uncovered.
• The best way to defrost food is to put it in the
refrigerator to thaw slowly.
• Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean (refer to “Maintenance and Cleaning).
• Never allow spillages to dry and harden.
• Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated
and labelled and used in date order to ensure
that food is consumed at its best.
• It is important that food is used before its “best
before” date.
• Store eggs in the egg rac provided in the
refrigerator door. Discard any bro en or chipped
eggs.
• Regularly chec the refrigerator door seal to
ensure that it is clean and free from debris.
• Always wash your hands with soapy water and
dry them with a clean towel before handling food.
• Keep wor surfaces clean and avoid cross
contamination by not using the same wor
surface or nife, without washing them thoroughly
in between.
• The fresh foods to be frozen must be fresh and of
the best quality.
• The size of each pac should be small enough to
ensure that it is used in one go . Small pac s
freeze more quic ly and uniformly and give better
results.
• Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen.
Lean food eeps better and longer than fatty food,
salt reduces the storage time.
• Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing
bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal .
• Pac aging which is swollen or has traces of
refrozen water droplets on the pac could indicate
that the product has not been ept at a suitable
temperature and that it may have lost its original
quality. Partially thawed food must not be
refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours.
Never exceed the storage times indicated.
• Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy drin
in the freezer as they may explode. Containers
with a lid must not be filled to the brim.
• Do not open the door or place extra fresh food in
the freezer next to food which is already frozen as
this could cause the temperature of the frozen
food to rise and its quality and storage life to
reduce .
• The symbols on the drawers show different types
of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for
the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether
the upper or lower value of the indicated storage
time is valid depends on the quality of the foods
and pre-treating before freezing.

The reezer compartment
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh foods.
Freezing resh ood
When freezing fresh foods set the slider control to
the “min” position and turn the thermostat control to
a higher setting.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 6 g. of fresh
food.
Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.
After 24 hours reposition the slider control and
thermostat control to previous setting.
Important
To ensure correct operation of the appliance do not
use the appliance with the bas et or drawers
removed.
Thawing
Frozen food can be thawed in the fridge or at room
temperature depending on the time available. Small
food items may even be coo ed from frozen; in this
case coo ing will ta e longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncoo ed and has
not been completely defrosted it can be coo ed and
then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even be coo ed while still frozen, but you must
ensure that it is thoroughly coo ed through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-coo ed dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly
regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping or
containers in the oven.
De rosted cooked ood must never be re rozen.
Frozen ood storage
Frozen food can be stored in any bas et or drawer of
the freezer compartment, including the fast freeze
compartment.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than is absolutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drin s etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature s in
burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause s in abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
Important
In the event o a power ailure - DO NOT OPEN
THE DOOR, the ood in the reezer will not be
a ected i the power cut is short and the reezer
is ull.
I the temperature in the reezer rises, and the
ood begins to thaw, do not re- reeze the ood
without checking its condition.
The ollowing guidelines should assist you.
