Removal of freezing baskets from
the freezer
The freezing baskets have a limit stop to prevent their
accidental removal or falling out. At the time of its
removal from the freezer, pull the basket towards
yourself and, upon reaching the end point, remove the
basket by tilting its front upwards.
At the time of putting it back, slightly lift the front of the
basket to insert it into the freezer. Once you are over
the end points, push the baskets back in their
position.
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, 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.
Defrosted cooked food must never be
refrozen.
Frozen Food Storage
When turning on the freezer for the first time or if the
freezer has been out of use for some time, we advise
you to run your appliance for at least 2 hours before
storing frozen food.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than is necessary.
It is practical to replace frozen products into the
basket(s) after freezing has finished. This will enable
you to make room in the freezing compartment for
other food. Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate
foods already stored.
In large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the
baskets except the lowest one from appliance and
place food on the shelves.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer can cause a low temperature skin
burn.
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer
will not be affected if the power cut is short and the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the
food begin to thaw it must be consumed quickly
and must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and Tips)
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
frost/freezer burns.
