Capacity The freezing capacity of the freezer is stated in the rating plate (kg/24 hours). Do not exceed the amount stated - if you do, the freezing time will be extended. The rating plate is located inside the lid. FREEZING CAPACITY LOW FROST SYSTEM. The patented LOW FROST System reduces the icebuild-up in the chest freezer by up to 80 percent, which results in a longer period of time between defrosting. To get the full benefit of the system, please observe the following points: The amount of ice-build-up in any freezer is very much dependent of the moisture of the surrounding air. The ice will build up quicker in a humid climate than in a dry climate. If you wish to freeze food several days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of 6 Therefore you should avoid installing your freezer in very humid surroundings. The LOW FROST system minimizes the amount of ice caused by the natural temperature cycle of the freezer. However, ice-build-up from other sources is not reduced. The most important other sources are poorly wrapped food and warm air introduced when the lid is opened. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the lid isnt opened unnecessarily, and the lid is not obstructed by packs of food when closed. If food stored in the freezer is not wrapped properly, humidity from the food will settle as ice on the freezer walls. Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate that the product has not been kept at a suitable temperature and that it may have lost its original quality. Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours. Never exceed the storage times indicated by the manufacturer. Fruits & Vegetables:If soft should be cooked and used up. Breads & Cakes: Shellfish: Cooked Dishes: Large Pieces of Meat: Small Joints: Chicken: Can be refrozen without danger. Should be refrigerated and used up quickly. casseroles should be refrigerated and used up. Can be refrozen providing there are still ice crystals remaining within them. Should be cooked and can then be refrozen as cooked dishes. Should also be cooked and refrozen as a fresh dish. Energy Saving Advice Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a boiler or radiator. Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated room and make sure that the air openings of the appliance are not obstructed. Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages before placing them in the freezer.
