•
Maintain a minimum distance between frozen
products of 2.5 mm (fig. 6).
Food products that are not yet frozen must not
come into contact with products already frozen.
•
Freeze only suitable products that can handle
low temperatures.
•
Only freeze fresh products.
•
Select the appropriate packaging for a given food product. Packaging may not allow air
or humidity to escape, as this may result in dried-out products. Plastic and paper bags
must be soft and flexible to ensure that they cling to their contents.
Do not place unpacked food products into the deep freezer.
•
Do not place glass bottles filled with liquid inside the device. Because liquids expand
when frozen, glass bottles may shatter inside the device.
•
Do not re-freeze products that have partially or entirely thawed. Such products should be
cooked within 24 hours.
•
Follow manufacturer's instructions for freezing particular food products.
•
For best results, freeze and thaw food products in small portions. This ensures quick
and even freezing and thawing. It is recommended to label food products by writing
the date and contents on their packaging.
•
The device's temperature may briefly rise when freezing a large number of fresh food
products. This will not impact previously frozen products.
•
Avoid opening the device's door when freezing is in progress.
•
Ensure that the proper temperature setting is selected to avoid excess energy
consumption.
•
In case of a power failure or other malfunction, avoid opening the device's door. This
will help delay a rise in temperature inside the device.
