Using the freezer efficiently  
Freezing food  
Placing food in the freezer  
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly  
as possible. This helps maintain the  
nutritional value, vitamin content,  
appearance and taste of the food.  
Food to be frozen can be placed  
anywhere in the freezer.  
The freezer baskets can hold a  
maximum of 35 lbs (16 kg) of frozen  
food.  
Never refreeze partially or fully  
defrosted food. Consume defrosted  
food as soon as possible, it will lose its  
nutritional value and spoil if left for too  
long. Do not refreeze defrosted food  
unless it has been cooked.  
^ Spread the food to be frozen across  
the bottom of the freezer basket or  
across the shelves, so that it will  
freeze through to the core as quickly  
as possible.  
Before placing food in the freezer  
^ When placing items in the freezer,  
make sure the packaging and  
^ When you are planning to freeze  
large amounts of food (more than  
4 ½ lbs [2 kg]), switch on the  
SuperCool function ahead of time  
(see "SuperCool").  
containers are dry, to keep them from  
sticking together when frozen.  
When freezing, try not to let frozen  
food come into contact with  
unfrozen food, this could cause the  
frozen food to defrost.  
This will provide the food already in  
the freezer with a protective boost of  
cold air.

Defrosting  
Cooling drinks quickly  
Frozen food can be defrosted in  
different ways:  
To cool drinks quickly, switch on the  
SuperCool function. See "SuperCool" for  
more information.  
– in a microwave oven,  
– at room temperature,  
Do not leave bottles in the freezer for  
more than 1 hour, closed containers  
could burst.  
– in the refrigerator (the cold given off  
by the frozen food helps to keep the  
other food cold),  
– in a steam oven.  
Poultry It is especially important to  
observe proper hygiene when  
defrosting poultry. Never save the liquid  
from defrosted poultry. Drain it away  
and promptly wash the container, the  
sink and your hands. Danger of  
salmonella poisoning.  
Fruit should be defrosted at room  
temperature in its packaging, or in a  
covered bowl.  
Most vegetables can be cooked while  
still frozen. Simply place directly into  
boiling water or hot oil.

Using the freezer efficiently  
Freezing tips  
– Do not place hot foods or drinks in  
the freezer. This causes already  
frozen food to thaw, and increases  
the energy consumption  
– The following are examples of foods  
suitable for freezing:  
Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish,  
vegetables, herbs, fresh fruit,  
pastry/dough, leftovers, and a range  
of pre-cooked meals.  
considerably. Allow hot foods and  
drinks to cool down before placing  
them in the freezer.  
– The following examples of foods not  
suitable for freezing:  
Packing tips  
^ Unsuitable packing material  
- wrapping paper  
Lettuce, radishes, sour cream,  
mayonnaise, eggs in their shells,  
onions, whole raw apples and pears.  
- greaseproof paper  
- cellophane  
– To retain color, taste and vitamin C,  
vegetables should be trimmed,  
washed, and blanched.  
- garbage bags  
- plastic shopping bags  
To blanch: bring a large saucepan of  
water to a boil, then submerge the  
vegetables in rapidly boiling water  
for 2-3 minutes, depending on type.  
Remove, and plunge into ice-cold  
water to cool quickly. Drain and pack  
for freezing.  
Suitable packing material  
- plastic freezer bags/wrap  
- aluminum foil  
- freezer containers  
^ To help prevent freezer burn, expel  
as much air as possible from  
bags, etc., before sealing them.  
– Lean meat freezes better than fatty  
meat, and can be stored for  
considerably longer.  
^ Close the packaging tightly with  
- plastic clips  
- twist ties  
– To prevent chops, steaks, cutlets or  
rolled meats from freezing together in  
solid blocks when packed, separate  
with a sheet of plastic freezer wrap.  
- rubber bands
