The Deep Freeze Compartment

• Use the deep freeze compartment of your refrigerator for storing the frozen food for a

long time and for producing ice.

• To get maximum capacity for freezer compartment, please just use glass shelves for

upper and middle section. For bottom section, please use lower basket.

• Place the food you would like to freeze initially in the upper shelf of the deep freeze

section in such a way that it shall not exceed the declared freezing capacity of your

refrigerator. You may place your food next to the other frozen foods after they are

frozen (for at least 24 hours).

• It is recommended to keep thermostat set at level 5.

• It is recommended that the food which is being newly frozen be kept separate from

the already frozen food.

• Foods should be frozen in single portion sized containers.

• Do not refreeze the frozen food once it is thawed. It may pose a danger to your health

as it might cause problems like food poisoning.

• Do not place hot meals in your deep freeze until they cool down. You could cause the

other food frozen beforehand in the deep freeze compartment to become spoiled.

• As you buy frozen food, make sure it was frozen under appropriate conditions and

that the packaging is not torn.

• While storing frozen food, the storage conditions on the package should certainly be

observed. If there are no instructions, the food has to be consumed in the shortest

possible period of time.

• Frozen food has to be transported before it thaws and it should be placed in the fast

freezing shelf as soon as possible. Please do not use the door shelves for fast

freezing purposes.

• If the frozen food package has been humidified and it has a foul odor, the food might

have previously been stored under unsuitable conditions and become spoiled.

Please do not buy such food!

• The storage durations of frozen food change depending on the environmental

temperatures, the frequent opening and closing of the doors, thermostat settings,

food types, and the period of time that elapsed from when the food was acquired to

the time it entered the freezer. Always abide by the instructions on the package and

never exceed the storage duration.

• During extended power outages, please do not open the door of the deep freeze

compartment. Your refrigerator will preserve your frozen food in the ambient

environmental temperature of 25°C for about 13 hours. This preservation time period

decreases the higher the ambient environmental temperatures are. During longer

lasting power cuts, you should not refreeze your food.

Some recommendations have been specified on pages 27, 28 and 29 for the placement

and storage of your food in the deep freeze compartment.
