Operation Manual

• After this period, place the fresh food in freezing

compartment I.

• Do not let the already frozen packages touch the fresh ones.

• After 24 hours you may relocate the food to the storage

compartments (II) and repeat the freezing procedure if

required.

• 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 ﬂ avour. It will also ensure that ﬂ avour does

not transfer from other foods.

• The food should be placed on the freezer compartment’s base.

Do not allow fresh food to touch items that are already frozen.

• After 24 hours you should check that the fresh food is

satisfactorily frozen. If it is then the fast freeze function should

be switched off.

• Freezer bags, polythene wraps, aluminium foil (extra thick)

and special cans for frozen foods are suitable packaging for

storing frozen goods in.

• Tape, rubber bands or plastic clips are suitable for sealing

bags and wrappings.

• Before sealing a suitable bag, you should compress the air out

of it, as this will help the food to freeze more easily.

• Flat packages freeze more easily.

• If you are freezing liquid, then do not ﬁ ll the container to the

brim. Liquids will expand when being frozen.

• Do not place bottles (glass or tin) containing liquids

(especially sparkling liquids) into the freezer as they could

cause the bottle to burst during freezing.
