First use Before first use, the freezer should be cleaned inside, see chapter "Care and cleaning". Always leave hot food to cool to room temperature before placing in the freezer. Divide food into small portions before freezing; this ensures that freezing is more rapid, and that you only need to defrost the amount needed for immediate consumption. Mark the freezer packaging with the date of freezing. Place fresh food for freezing close to the cold sides of the freezer, making sure that it is not in contact with the frozen food already in the freezer. Frozen food can be stored anywhere inside the freezer, but should be kept at least 5 mm below the upper edge. If freezing is too slow, the quality of the food being frozen deteriorates. The amount of fresh food (expressed in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated in the chapter "Technical data" under "Freezing capacity". Food storage For fresh frozen food, please refer to the storage period table underneath. For purchased frozen food, never exceed the expiry date. When you buy frozen food, make sure that it has been stored at the correct temperature. Do not buy products which have wet or damaged packaging. Place purchased products in your freezer as quickly as possible.
