Frozen Food Storage

When first starting the freezer 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.

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.

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.

To Make Ice Cubes

1. Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full with cold water, place in

the freezing compartment and leave to freeze.

2. To remove the cubes twist the tray or hold it under

running water for a few seconds.

Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to

the freezer compartment by using pointed or

sharp edged objects.
