^ Press down on the hook a under-
neath the rear of the separator plate
and pull the plate forwards and out
b.
To put the separator plate back in push
it back into place making sure it audibly
clicks into position.
^ Place the food flat in the bottom of
the drawers so that it freezes through
to the core as quickly as possible.
^ Always freeze similar types of food
together to save time and energy
when taking food out of the freezer.
^ Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
When freezing, make sure that food
already frozen does not come into
contact with fresh food being frozen
as this could cause the frozen food
to begin to defrost.
Freezer calendar
The freezer calendar on the freezer
drawer gives the length of time which
various foods can be stored for effec-
tively.
Where the storage time given on the
packaging differs, follow the advice on
the packaging.
Marker system for frozen food
Markers serve as a reminder of how
long food has been stored.
Each freezer drawer has two slide
markers with dials. The months are rep-
resented on the dials as 1 – 12.
^ Slide the markers onto the guide run-
ners on the edge of the drawers.
Use the markers to indicate the type of
food being frozen and turn the dials to
the appropriate number to indicate the
month the food was first placed in the
freezer.
