Frozen food storage
When you first start the freezer or if the freezer has
been out of use for some time, we advise you to run
your appliance for at least two hours in the «fast
freeze» mode before storing frozen food.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
we strongly recommend that you make sure that
the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately
stored by the retailer and, furthermore, be sure
that these frozen foodstuffs are transferred from
the foodstore to the consumer in the shortest
possible time (a temperature increase of the frozen
food could shorten its storage period).
It is also advisable not to exceed the storage period
indicated by the producer of the food.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Attention
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can possibly result in a low
temperature skin burn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
If there is a power failure during the storage of
frozen food, do not open the door during the whole
time of the power failure. If the freezer is fully
loaded, the frozen food will not be affected if the
power cut is of short duration; otherwise, it is
recommended to consume the food within a very
short time.
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.
Ice making
Fill the ice trays with water to the top of each ice
cube compartment, and place them in the freezer
compartment. To release the ice cubes, twist the
tray along its length.
Never use a sharp instrument to remove ice trays.
