• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures
and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality
of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest
possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is
probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions
printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and the food which is wanted to
freeze) more quickly because of the freezing room’s greater freezing power. Fast
freezing shelves are the middle drawers of the freezer compartment
(see in page 38)
• Some recommendations have been specified on pages 30, 31 and 32 for the
placement and storage of your food in the deep freeze compartment.
