SEALING When sealing food in bags, squeeze out the air first. Place labels on the inside of clear freezer bags; use self-adhesive labels on the outside of opaque ones. Seal the top of the bag with a fastener. DEFROSTING Here are some helpful tips. Raw vegetables: do not thaw, put straight into boiling water and cook as usual. Meat (large cuts): thaw in the refrigerator compartment without unwrapping. Before cooking, leave at room temperature for a couple of hours. Meat (small cuts): thaw at room temperature or cook from frozen. Fish: thaw in the refrigerator compartment without unwrapping or cook before fully thawed. In the event of a power failure, the freezer compartment maintains the appropriate storage temperature for approximately 12 hours; during this time, we suggest you leave the door of the compartment closed. [. . . ] When the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters the refrigerator. The more often the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up, especially when the room itself is very humid. • If the room is very humid, it is normal for moisture to build up inside the refrigerator. • It is normal for droplets of water to form on the rear wall after the automatic defrost cycle.
