IN THE CASE OF A POWER FAILURE OR
BREAKDOWN
The hold-over period mentioned in the "Technical
Specification" section of this book refers to an estimated
time the freezer temperature will take to rise to an
unacceptable level for keeping frozen foods.
Providing the period of power failure or breakdown does
not exceed the hold-over period there will be no risk of
damage to the frozen food, providing you do not open the
lid during this period.
If the freezer is only half full or the lid is opened this will
reduce the hold-over time.
After the breakdown period you are recommended to
check the condition of food to ensure it has not started to
thaw. Frozen food must NOT be re-frozen once it has
thawed out. The following guidelines should assist you.
Ice cream: Once thawed should be
discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: If soft should be cooked and
used up.
Breads & Cakes: Can be re-frozen without
danger.
Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and
used up quickly.
Cooked Dishes: ie. casseroles should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: Can be re-frozen providing
there are still ice crystals
remaining within them.
Small Joints: Should be cooked and can
then be re-frozen as cooked
dishes.
Chicken: Should also be cooked and re-
frozen as a cooked dish.
