- As you buy frozen food, make sure it was frozen under appropriate conditions and that the
packaging is not torn.
- While storing frozen food, the storage conditions on the package should certainly be observed. If
there are no instructions, the food has to be consumed in the shortest possible period of time.
- Frozen food has to be transported before it thaws and it should be placed in the fast freezing shelf
as soon as possible. Please do not use the door shelves for fast freezing purposes.
- If the frozen food package has been humidified and it has a foul odor, the food might have
previously been stored under unsuitable conditions and become spoiled.Please do not buy such
food!
- The storage durations of frozen food change depending on the environmental temperatures, the
frequent opening and closing of the doors, thermostat settings, food types, and the period of time
that elapsed from when the food was acquired to the time it entered the freezer. Always abide by
the instructions on the package and never exceed the storage duration.
- During extended power outages, please do not open the door of the deep freeze compartment. Your
refrigerator will preserve your frozen food in the ambient environmental temperature of 25°C for about 13
hours. This preservation time period decreases the higher the ambient environmental temperatures are.
During longer lasting power cuts, you should not refreeze your food.
