The **** freezer section
The freezer section is suitable for storing and freezing food.
o The freezer section temperature must have already reached -18
degrees centigrade (or lower) before you attempt to store food
that is already frozen or freezing fresh food.
o The freezer section is only able to freeze a certain quantity of
fresh food at one time. The maximum amount of fresh food (in
kilograms) that can be frozen in a 24 hour period is 10 kg.
o Warm food should be allowed to cool down before you attempt
to freeze it. If you place warm food in the freezer section, then
the increased humidity will cause quicker ice formation and
increase the amount of power that the appliance uses.
o The guidance of the food manufacturer should be followed, in
regard to the maximum storage time.
o Thawed foods must not be frozen for a second time.
Freezing fresh food
o To freeze fresh food you should set the freezer to
super freeze mode (see page 16) 2.5 hours prior to
attempting freezing.
o Once you have added the food, you should then run
the super freeze mode again for another 2.5 hours.
o Fresh food should be packed into airtight containers
or packaging. This will help to make sure that the
food doesn’t dry out or lose its flavour. It will also
ensure that flavour does not transfer from other
foods.
o Do not allow fresh food to touch items that are
already frozen.
o After 2.5 hours you should check that the fresh food
is satisfactorily frozen. If it is then you should allow
the appliance to return to normal temperature
settings. If it is not, then run super freeze mode for
another 2.5 hours.
