The Freezer Compartment; Freezing Fresh Food - Baumatic BF340BL Instruction Manual

The
The freezer compartment is suitable for storing and freezing food.
o The freezer compartment temperature must have already
reached -18 degrees centigrade (or lower) before you attempt to
store food that is already frozen or freezing fresh food.
o The freezer compartment is only able to freeze a certain quantity
of food at one time. You should not attempt to freeze more than
7 kilograms of fresh food within a 24 hour period.
o Preferably the top drawer should be used when freezing fresh
food. Once the food is frozen, you can then transfer the food to
the lower drawers.
o Warm food should be allowed to cool down before you attempt
to freeze it. If you place warm food in the freezer compartment,
then the increased humidity will cause quicker ice formation and
increase the amount of power that the appliance uses.
o The guidance of the food manufacturer should be followed, in
regard to the maximum storage time.
o Thawed foods must not be frozen for a second time.

Freezing fresh food

o Fresh food should be packed into airtight containers
or packaging. This will help to make sure that the
food doesn't dry out or lose its flavour. It will also
ensure that flavour does not transfer from other
foods.
