Freezing fresh food

• It must be preferred to wrap or cover

the food before placing them in the

refrigerator.

• Hot food must cool down to the

room temperature before putting

them in the refrigerator.

• The foodstuff that you want to freeze

must be fresh and in good quality.

• Foodstuff must be divided into

portions according to the family’s

daily or meal based consumption

needs.

• The foodstuff must be packaged in

an airtight manner to prevent them

from drying even if they are going to

be kept for a short time.

• Materials to be used for packaging

must be tear-proof and resistant to

cold, humidity, odor, oils and acids

and they must also be airtight.

Moreover, they must be well closed

and they must be made from easy-

to-use materials that are suitable for

deep freeze usage.

• Frozen food must be used

immediately after they are thawed

and they should never be re-frozen.

• Please observe the following

instructions to obtain the best results.

1. Do not freeze too large quantities

of food at one time. The quality of

the food is best preserved when it

is frozen right through to the core as

quickly as possible.

2. Placing warm food into the freezer

compartment causes the cooling

system to operate continuously until

the food is frozen solid.

3. Take special care not to mix already

frozen food and fresh food.

Recommendations for

preservation of frozen food

• Prepacked commercially frozen

food should be stored in accordance

with the frozen food manufacturer's

instructions for a

( 4 star)

frozen food storage compartment.

• To ensure that the high quality

achieved by the frozen food

manufacturer and the food retailer is

maintained, the following should be

remembered:

1. Put packages in the freezer as quickly

as possible after purchase.

2. Ensure that contents are labeled and

dated.

3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best

Before" dates on the packaging.

Defrosting

The freezer compartment defrosts

automatically.
