Advice for storing
frozen food
When purchasing
frozen food products:
•
Make sure that the package is intact (frozen food in
damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package
is swollen or has damp patches, it may not have been
stored under optimal conditions and defrosting may have
already begun.
•
When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and
transport the products in a thermally insulated cool bag.
•
Once at home, place the frozen foods immediately in the
appliance.
•
Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum.
Respect the best-before date on the package.
•
Always observe the storage information on the package.
Note:
Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately.
Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it has
thawed. Once cooked, the thawed food can be
refrozen.
If there is a long power failure:
•
Do not open the appliance lid except to place ice
packs (if provided) over the frozen foods on the right
and left of the appliance. This will slow down the rise
in temperature.
