[. . . ] It is placed in the lower part, directly above of the vegetable conservation drawer. 39 Proper Storage Different temperature zones exist within the refrigerator due to the laws of physics. The coldest zone is at the bottom storage shelf above the fruit and vegetable trays. The warmer zones are found at the uppermost storage shelves and in the door compartments. The arrangement example shows at which places in the refrigerator suitable temperatures for various types of foods exist. The freezer door storage compartment (2 stars) serves only for storage purposes at -12 °C (storage time 2-3 weeks, depending on food). Tip: Foods should always be packaged or covered in the refrigerator, in order to avoid odour or flavour contamination to other refrigerated goods. The following are suited for pakkaging: ­ plastic bags and wraps of polyethylene; ­ plastic containers with lids; ­ special plastic covers with elastic seals; ­ aluminium foil. 40 Freezing Attention!· Before foods are frozen, the actual temperature in the freezer compartment must be -18°C or colder. · Please observe indicated freezing capacity on the serial plate. The freezing capacity represents the maximum amount of fresh goods that can be frozen within 24 hours. If you freeze goods on several days, one after the other, freeze amounts equal to 2/3 to 3/4 of the capacity indicated on the serial plate. · Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.   All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods occurs. Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands. Place packaged foods in the freezer compartment. Unfrozen goods may not come into contact with already frozen goods, otherwise the frozen goods may start to thaw. Tips: · ­ ­ ­ · The following are suited for the packaging of frozen goods: freezer bags and polyethylene wraps; special cans for frozen goods; extra-thick aluminium foil The following are suited for sealing bags and wraps: plastic clips, rubber bands or adhesive tape. · Press air out of bags and wraps before sealing, because air encourages drying of frozen goods. · Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly. · Do not fill cans for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or paste-like goods, because liquids expand during freezing. Note for inspection authorities: Batch plans for the determination of freezing performance or warm-up time can be requested directly from the manufacturer. 41 Frozen Storage Attention!Before initial loading of the freezer compartment with previously frozen goods, the required storage temperature of -18°C must be reached. The freezer door storage compartment (2 stars) serves only for storage purposes at -12 °C. [. . . ] We recommend that you enter this information here, so that it is handy if needed.
