The freezer compartment
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh foods.
Freezing fresh food
When freezing fresh foods set the slider control to
the “min” position and turn the thermostat control to
a higher setting.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 6 kg. of fresh
food.
Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.
After 24 hours reposition the slider control and
thermostat control to previous setting.
Important
To ensure correct operation of the appliance do not
use the appliance with the basket or drawers
removed.
Thawing
Frozen food can be thawed in the fridge or at room
temperature depending on the time available. Small
food items may even be cooked from frozen; in this
case cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has
not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and
then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must
ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly
regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping or
containers in the oven.
Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.
Frozen food storage
Frozen food can be stored in any basket or drawer of
the freezer compartment, including the fast freeze
compartment.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than is absolutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin
burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
Important
In the event of a power failure - DO NOT OPEN
THE DOOR, the food in the freezer will not be
affected if the power cut is short and the freezer
is full.
If the temperature in the freezer rises, and the
food begins to thaw, do not re-freeze the food
without checking its condition.
The following guidelines should assist you.
Ice-cream: once thawed should be discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: if soft should be cooked and
used up.
Breads & Cakes: can be re-frozen without danger.
Shellfish: should be refrigerated and used up
quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: can be re-frozen providing
there are still ice crystals remaining within them.
Small Joints: should be cooked and can then be re-
frozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: should also be cooked and re-frozen as a
cooked dish.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with one or more trays for
ice-cubes trays.
Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand
and place them in the freezer compartment.
To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist.
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the trays from the freezer.
