About the Freezer Compartment
The freezer compartment consists of two drawers, an ice
cream shelf, three glass shelves and two door shelves
(Fig.2.4).
As with the fridge, certain areas of the freezer are better for
storage of certain foods.
Ice creams and water ices are best stored on the ice cream
shelf or towards the rear of the appliance where it is coldest.
Large/heavier portions of food, such as meat joints for
roasting are best stored in the drawers at the bottom of the
appliance, while less weighty items should be stored on the
shelves – this is to prevent damage to the appliance.
You should always make sure that food stored is suitable
for freezing, and that you have stored it securely inside the
appliance.
Ensure there is space left between items placed on
the shelves, and around the sensor.
Keep the bottom drawer in place to ensure cool air
circulation.
Shelves
To remove the shelf, tilt the front upwards so that the
restraining pegs are clear of the side guides (Fig.2.5) and pull
towards you. Keep the shelf tilted to allow the retaining stops
to clear the side guides.
When repositioning, make sure the shelf is pushed back fully
and the retaining stops have located securely.
The Light
The LED interior lights comes on when the door is opened.
The performance of the lights is not aected by any of the
appliances other settings.
Defrosting Food for Cooking
Should food become partially thawed or defrosted, it should
be consumed as soon as possible as the quality will be
aected by defrosting.
Always make sure that food is thoroughly defrosted
before cooking and no ice crystals remain. This
is especially important for poultry, as this can be
extremely harmful to health.
Always follow the defrosting instructions on packaging when
defrosting ready meals – manufacturers’ guidelines are always
best, as some frozen foods should be cooked from frozen.
