Storage of food in the fridge-freezer
Observe the following recommen- dations to
ensure the food remains fresh.
l The products should be placed on plates, in
containers or packed in food wrap. Di- stribute
them evenly l over the shelves.
l If the food contacts the rear wall, it may cause
frosting or wetting of the products.
l Do not put dishes with hot food t into the fridge
l Products which absorb flavours easily such as
butter, milk, white cheese and products with in-
tense flavour, such as fish, smoked meat, hard
cheese must be placed on shelves, packed in
food wrap or in tightly sealed containers.
l The storage of vegetables containing significant
quantities of water will cause the deposition of
condensation on the vegetable containers, it
does not impact on the proper functioning of the
fridge.
l Before putting the vegetables into the fridge, dry
them well.
l Excessive moisture shortens the shelf life of ve-
getables, especially the leafed vegeta- bles.
l Do not wash the vegetables before storing in the
refrigerator. Washing removes the natural pro-
tection, therefore it is better to wash the vegeta-
bles directly before con- sumption.
l It is recommended to place the products in fre-
ezer drawers 1, 2, 3* up to natural loading capa-
city (Fig. 11a / 11b).**
1. Packed products
2. Shelf
3. Natural loading capacity
4. (*/***)
l Stacking of products on the freezer shelves is
acceptable.*
l It is acceptable to place products beyond the
natural loading capacity by 20-30 mm.**
l In order to increase the loading capacity of the
freezer chamber and allow the stacking of pro-
ducts on the freezer evaporator wire shelves up
to maximum height it is possi- ble to remove dra-
wers 1 and 2.*
Freezing food**
l Practically all the food products, except for ve-
getables consumed raw, such as lettuce can be
frozen.
l Only food products of the highest quality, divided
into small portions for single use, should be fro-
zen.
l Products should be packed in materials that are
odourless, resistant to air and moisture pene-
tration, and not susceptible to fat. Plastic bags,
polyethylene and aluminium sheets are the best
wrapping materials.
l The packaging should be tight and should stick
to the frozen products. Do not use glass conta-
iners.
l Keep fresh and warm foodstuff at am- bient
temperature away from the products, which have

already been frozen.
l We advise you not to place more of fresh food
at a time to the freezer per day (see table witch
technical specification).
l n order to maintain optimum quality of the frozen
food, reorganise the food that is in the middle of
the freezer, so that it does not touch the products
that are not yet frozen.
l It is recommended that you move the already
frozen products to one side and place the fresh
products that are to be frozen on the opposite
side, as close to the rear and side walls as po-
ssible.
l To freezing products, use space marked (*/***).
l Bear in mind that the temperature in the fre-
ezer is affected by several factors, including
the ambient temperature and the quantity of
food products in the chamber, the frequency
of opening the door, the amount of frost in the
freezer, and the thermostat setting.
l If you cannot open the freezer door immedia-
tely after closing it, allow 1-2 minutes for the
negative pressure to com- pensate, and try
again to open the door.
The storage time for frozen products depends on
their quality before freezing when fresh, and on the
storage temperature. The following storage periods
are recommended when the temperature of -18°C
or lower is maintained::
Products
Beef
Veal
Giblets
Pork
Poultry
Eggs
Fish
Vegetables
Fruit
Do not store frozen food in rapid cooling cham-
ber. Ice cubes can be prepared and stored in this
chamber.***
