EN Storing into the freezer compartment:
- It is recommended to keep freezer setting at -20°C except extreme ambient conditions.
- 4-6 hours before freezing switch on the Fast Freeze function to provide faster freezing.
- Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the freezer compartment.
- Food cut into small portions will freeze faster and be easier to defrost and cook.
- It is better to pack food before putting it into the freezer.
- In order to avoid expiry of storage periods, please note the freezing date, time limit and name of the food on the packaging according to the storage periods of different foods.
- Do not exceed the food storage times recommended by the food manufacturers. Only take the required amount of food out of the freezer.
- Consume defrosted food quickly. Defrosted food cannot be re-frozen unless it is cooked. It is not safe to consume uncooked re-frozen fresh food.
- When freezing fresh food, avoid bringing it in contact with already frozen food. It may cause thawing of already frozen pieces.
When storing commercially frozen foods, please follow these guidelines:
Always follow manufacturers’ guidelines for the length of time you should store the food for. Do not exceed these guidelines!
- Try to keep the length of time between purchase and storage as short as possible to preserve food quality.
- Buy frozen foods, which have been stored at a temperature of –18 °C or below.
- Avoid buying food which has ice or frost on the packaging – This indicates that the products might have been partially defrosted and refrozen at some point – temperature rises affect the quality of food.
- We recommend a temperature setting of 4°C for fresh food compartment and -20°C for freezer compartment to achieve better food
preservation. - With the exception of extreme conditions in ambient, if temperature is set to recommended values as +4°C/-20°C, overall freshness will be prolonged within fresh food and freezer compartments. If temperature of fresh food compartment is set to cooler, fresh fruits and vegetables may be partially frozen or exposed to cold injury, while warmer temperature level may cause faster spoilage of highly perishable foods (dairy products, meat products).
