Tips for Using the Appliance
• Do not store food uncovered in the freezer. Always use good quality, freezer-proof packaging to maintain
food quality. Remove air from packages of solid food and seal bags tightly before freezing.
• Keep portions small to ensure they are frozen (and subsequently defrosted) rapidly.
• Make sure that fresh, unfrozen food packages do not touch food that is already frozen, thus avoiding a
temperature rise in the frozen food.
• When freezing food, do not push food together too much, leave some space for air to circulate around
each item. Do not place packages directly against the back wall.
• When buying frozen food, only buy quantities that you can store straight away; use an insulated container
for your shopping and when you get home, place the food in the freezer immediately.
• When storing pre-packed, commercially frozen food, follow the food manufacturer’s instructions for storing
the food in a home freezer. Do not exceed any storage times listed on the packaging.
• Once you have opened a packet of frozen food, re-wrap it airtight to prevent surface evaporation which
causes drying or freezer burn.
• Do not place carbonated liquids such as bottles of zzy drink in the freezer as the container could explode
under pressure and damage the freezer.
• Do not refreeze food once it has been defrosted.
• Frozen food which has thawed accidentally should either be used immediately or thrown away.
Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted, it may be cooked and then
refrozen.
• CAUTION! Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp or wet as this could cause skin
abrasions.
Tips for Energy Saving
• The appliance should be placed in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or
heating ducts. Please avoid placement in direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the appliance.
• Do not overload the appliance with unfrozen food as this may cause it to freeze slowly and risk food
spoilage.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts
down on frost building up inside in the unit.
• Please do not wrap items in aluminium foil, wax paper or paper towel. This materials interfere with cold air
circulation, making the appliance less efcient.
• Organise and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as
needed at one time, ensuring the unit is opened as few times as possible.
