Freezing and storing
Observe that fresh products should not be
mixed with deep frozen food.
Note
The bottom frozen food bin should be used
exclusively for the storage of frozen food. If
possible, avoid using bin to freeze fresh
food.
Wrapping the food
Use only top quality food products.
Place them in airtight containers in order
thet none of the taste is lost, and to prevent
them from drying out. Label the frozen
containers/packs and add the date
Freezing the food
If you need to freeze very large quantities of
food, you may find it convenient to remove
the frozen food bins (botton bin may not be
removed) from the unit and to stack your
products directly on the freezing grids. To
remove bins, pull forwards until they catch,
tilt upwards and remove. Figure k.
Observe that food should not project over
the border line, Figure q/A, otherwise the
air circulation within the unit will be
adversely influenced.
Fast freeze
Connect the fast freeze function a few hours
before introducing the fresh food.
In general 4-6 hours are sufficient. If
maximum freezing power is necessary, 24
hours are required.
Small quantities of food (up to 2 kg.) may be
frozen without the fast freeze function.
To connect the fast freeze function, simply
press the button. (Figure s/8).
The yellow control light indicates that the
function is in operation. The condensor will
now stay on permanently, and a low
temperature will be reached in the freezer
compartment. After introducing the fresh
food, the fast freeze may be disconnected
(by pressing the fast freeze button -the
yellow ligth will go off).
The freezing-process is controlled
automatically by the unit, which means to
say that the function changes to the normal
storage setting when appropriate, which
saves energy.
Presevation of products
It is sometimes necessary to store a large
amount of products in the freezer. When
required, it is possible to remove all the
drawers except the lowest one from the
freezer compartment and place products
directly on the freezing panels.
To remove the drawers, pull these, out to
their limit without forcing them, then push
upwards and remove. Fig k.
When placing products in the freezer
compartment, it is important to ensure that
these do not pass the overload line, Fig. q.,
so as not to affect the free circulation of air
within the freezer compartment.
Chart showing storage
periods for products
Figure l/18
To avoid deterioration of the frozen product,
it is important not to exceed the permitted
storage period.
The length of time a product may be stored
depends on the type of food being frozen.
The numbers next to the symbols indicate
the storage period in months for the frozen
product For commercial preprepared frozen
food products it is necessary to note the
date of manufacture and the use-by date.
Defrosting the frozen product
Depending on the type and end use, one
can choose from the following options:
at room temperature
in the refrigerator compartment
in an electric oven with/without hot air fan
in the microwave oven
