The Freezer Compartment; Max. Freezing Capacity; Freezing And Storing Food; Purchasing Frozen Food - CONSTRUCTA CK64 Série Mode D'emploi

Note the chill zones in the
refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
Coldest zone is in the pull-out
■
container. Fig. #
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausage, meat) in the coldest zone.
Warmest zone is at the very top
■
of the door.
Note
Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in
the warmest zone. Cheese can then
continue to release its flavour and the
butter will still be easy to spread.

compartment
Using the freezer compartment
To store deep-frozen food.

Ensure that the freezer compartment
door has been closed properly. If the
door is open, the frozen food will thaw.
The freezer compartment will become
covered in thick ice. Also: waste of
energy due to high power consumption!

value, flavour and colour, vegetables
should be blanched before freezing.

asparagus do not require blanching.
Literature on freezing and blanching
can be found in bookshops.
