Freezing and storing
Purchasing frozen foods
• Packaging must not be damaged.
Observe the best before date.
The temperature in the commercial
chest freezer must be -18 oc or
colder.
• As far as possible, frozen food must
be transported in an insulated
container and quickly placed in the
freezer compartment.
Storing frozen food
If lots of food is to be stored, you can
remove the ice twister and the shelf.
To ensure that there is no impact on the
air circulation in the appliance, do not
stack the food beyond the stacking limit.
Freezing fresh food
Only use fresh, undamaged food for
freezing.
In order to retain the nutritional value,
aroma and colour of the food as much
as possible, blanch vegetables before
they are frozen. Blanching is not required
for aubergines, peppers, courgettes and
asparagus.
You can find literature about freezing and
blanching in bookshops.
Note
Do not allow food that is to be frozen to
sit right next to food that has already
been frozen.
