● Freeze and store either fresh food or long
term commercially frozen foods.
● Generally speaking long term storage means
up to 3 months but this can vary, so always
follow your supplier’s recommendations
otherwise refer to the pictorial guide on the
door liner (as shown).
● Place frozen food in the freezer
compartment as soon as possible after
buying it.
● Liquid-filled bottles or sealed fizzy drinks must not be stored in freezer, as
they may burst.
● Lollipops and water ices should not be given to children directly from the
freezer the low temperature may cause ‘freezer burns’.
● Store ice cream towards the top front of the freezer and remove from freezer
15-30 minutes before serving.
● Ensure food is labelled and dated before placing in freezer.
● When freezing fresh food follow the instructions for using fast freeze (see
CONTROLS section).
● Do not allow fresh food to come into contact with food already frozen, the
frozen food could start to defrost.
● Once thawed, food should be cooked and eaten within 24 hours or cooked
and refrozen.
