It is important that fresh foo place in the freezer is

is heate as little as possible.
FFTo freeze fresh foo :
1. Turn the thermostat control knob to 'Super' 6-24
hours before placing fresh foo in the freezer. The
freezer will now run continuously, creating a
sufficient reserve of the temperature require .
2. Place the foo on the freezing shelf of the freezer
an leave the thermostat control knob in the 'Super'
position for a further 24 hours.
3. After 24 hours, return the thermostat control knob
to the 'Normal' position. The freezer will return to
normal storage temperature. Place the frozen foo
in the storing compartment.
If the thermostat control knob is left in the
'Super' position, the freezer will not be
damaged, but energy will be wasted.
Frozen Food Storage
When first starting the freezer or if the freezer has
been out of use for some time, we a vise you to run
your appliance for at least 4 hours with the
thermostat control knob in the 'Super' position
before storing frozen foo .
Do not excee the storage perio in icate by the
manufacturer.
Do not open the oor frequently or leave it open
longer than is necessary.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer can cause a low
temperature s in burn.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause s in
abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer
will not be affected if the power cut is short and
the freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should
the food begin to thaw it must be consumed
quic ly and must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and
Tips)
Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen foo , prior to being use ,
can be thawe in the fri ge or at room temperature,
epen ing on the time available. Small foo items
may even be cooke from frozen, in this case
cooking will take longer.
Any frozen foo which is allowe to thaw
acci entally shoul either be eaten as soon as
possible, or thrown away. Alternatively, if the foo is
uncooke an has not been completely efroste
it can be cooke an then refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must never be
refrozen.
FFTo Make Ice Cubes

place on the freezing shelf an leave to freeze.
