Place the foods to be frozen in the lower part of the appliance. For the perfect operation of the appliance, make sure that the frozen foods will not touch the ventilator cover or the ventilator mounted in the rear of the product. For the best results it is recommended to distribute the frozen foods evenly in the boxes. If you make small portions of the foods, the freezing process will take less time and subsequent thawing will be possible in small portions also. In order to avoid freezing burns, do not touch ice-creams immediately after they have been taken out from the freezer. It is recommended to state the freezing date on the package so that later you can check the storage duration. The time of transportation from the seller to the consumer must be as short as possible. Important Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer. Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer can cause a low temperature skin burn. Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin 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. Should the food begin to thaw it must be consumed quickly and must not be refrozen.
