To freeze fresh food - ensure that as much of the surface of food to be frozen is in contact with the cooling
surface.

Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods into freezer and remember to consume them in a short
period of time.
Never place warm food in the freezer compartment.
The instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully and if no information is
provided food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
When buying frozen foods ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing

stored in the freezer as soon as possible.
If a package of frozen food shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it has been previously stored at an
unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
The storage life of frozen foods 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.

and after the freezer has reached an equilibrium condition the door will open easily.

Frozen foods, when thawed, should be cooked just like fresh foods. If they are not cooked after being thawed
they must NEVER be re-frozen.
