Loading the Freezer Compartment
Load so that at least 15 mm of space remains
clear between stacks of packages and 15–25 mm
of space between the top of any stack and any
shelf or basket above it. Packages may hang
over the front of shelves but must remain
15 mm from doors.
Food to be frozen must not be placed in
direct contact with food in storage. If food
is to be frozen every day, it may be necessary
to reduce the quantity to be frozen.
If a quantity of food needs to be frozen,
set the freezer control to its coldest setting.
After the food is frozen, reset the freezer
control to its initial position.
Food is most quickly frozen on the middle
three shelves of the freezer compartment
and most slowly in the freezer door shelves.
Do not store commercially quick-frozen food
longer than the time recommended by the
food manufacturers.
If the power to the appliance is shut off
for an extended time or if the refrigerating
system fails, do not open the doors unless
absolutely necessary. When it is necessary,
close them as quickly as possible so the
frozen food will stay frozen as long as
possible.
The freezer door storage shelves marked
with a two-star label are only appropriate
for the storage of previously frozen food.
Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the
freezer compartment.
