Maximum freezing capacity

To ensure that fresh food placed in the
freezer section freezes through to the
core as quickly as possible, the
maximum freezing capacity must not
be exceeded. The maximum freezing
capacity for freezing within a 24-hour
period is given on the data plate
"Freezing capacity ....kg/24 hrs".

Storing frozen food

When buying frozen food to store in
your freezer, check

– that the packaging is not damaged,

– the use-by date,

– the temperature at which the frozen

food is being stored in the shop. The
length of time it can be kept is
reduced if it has been stored at a
temperature warmer than -18 °C.

^ Buy frozen food once you have

finished the rest of your shopping,
and wrap it in newspaper or use a
cool bag or cool box to transport it.

^ Store it in the freezer as soon as

possible.

Never re-freeze partially or fully
defrosted food. Consume defrosted
food as soon as possible as it will
lose its nutritional value and spoil if
left for too long. Defrosted food may
only be re-frozen after it has been
cooked.
