o Do not buy packages of food that are covered with frost. This
could indicate that the package has thawed at least once before.
o Take care that your frozen food packages do not start to thaw
before you place them in your freezer. This will shorten the
length of time that you can safely store the food for.
Defrosting frozen food
o Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be used as soon as
possible.
o Cold air preserves the food but it does not destroy the micro
organisms which rapidly activate themselves after defrosting and
make foods perishable.
o Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of food, especially
fruits, vegetables and readymade meals.
Making ice cubes
o Fill the ice cube tray with water and place it in the upper freezer
drawers.
o After the water is completely frozen and turned to ice, you can
twist the ice cube tray (as shown in the drawing below) to
dispense the ice.
Normal operating noises
Ice cracking noise
o Can be heard during the automatic defrosting process.
o Can be caused by expansion and contraction within the fridge
freezer.
