When freezing, make sure that food
already frozen does not come into
contact with fresh food being frozen
as this could cause the frozen food
to begin to defrost.
When freezing large items, e.g. a
turkey or large joint of meat, the shelf
between the 3rd and 4th drawers can
be removed:
^
Remove the third drawer from the
top.
^ Press down on the hook a
underneath the rear of the evaporator
plate and pull the plate forwards and
out b.
To put the evaporator plate back in,
push it back into place making sure it
audibly clicks into position.
Freezer calendar
The freezer calendar on the freezer
drawer gives the length of time which
various foods can be stored for
effectively.
Where the storage time given on the
packaging differs, follow the advice on
the packaging.
Marker system for frozen food
Markers serve as a reminder of how
long food has been stored.
Each freezer drawer has two slide
markers with dials. The months are
represented on the dials as 1 – 12.
^ Slide the markers onto the guide
runners on the edge of the drawers.
Use the markers to indicate the type of
food being frozen, and turn the dials to
the appropriate number to indicate the
month the food was first placed in the
freezer.

Frozen food can be defrosted in
different ways:
–
in a microwave oven,

in an oven using the "Fan" or "Defrost"
setting,

–
in a refrigerator,
