Freezing
- For the packaging of foods to be frozen consult a
specialized manual.
- Remember that you should never re-freeze products
you have allowed to thaw, even if only partially: cook the
food, then either eat (within 24 hours) or re-freeze it.
- When freezing fresh foods, remember that they should
not touch other previously frozen or deep frozen foods.
Place the food that you wish to freeze in the top
compartment where the temperature will fall below
-18°C, ideal for freezing food properly. Remember that
proper conservation depends on the speed of freezing.
- Do not open the freezer door during freezing.
- Freeze only the quantities (in kg) shown on the data
plate on the left of the crisper.
- When using the refrigerator for the first time, or after it
has not been turned off, you can place food into it only
after is has been run for 6-8 hours, Then, insert the fresh

What Not to Store in the Refrigerator

Bananas (they will turn black).
Citrus fruits.
Potatoes and root vegetables (store in dark, dry places).
approximately 24 hours, the freezing process is complete.
- For the best conservation and defrosting, remember to
freeze small portions; this will ensure rapid and uniform
freezing. Mark the freezing date and description of the
contents on the package.
- In the case of power failure or breakdown, do not open
the freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer ensuring that foods are conserved for
at least 9-14 hours.
- Do not store full bottles in the freezer since they could
explode when they freeze. (Remember that liquids
increase in volume when frozen).
- Fill the ice trays so that they are no more than 3/4 full.
- If the room temperature remains below 14°C for a long
period of time the freezer will not reach the
temperatures
required for storage and the storage life will be shorter.
In this case frozen foodstuffs should be used within a
relatively short period of time.
