Hints for refrigeration
For Meat: (all types) wrap in cling wrap

storage times and use by dates
suggested by manufacturers.

any shelf.

They should be stored in the special
drawer provided.

Should be wrapped in airtight foil or
plastic film wrap.

Hints for freezing
When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, let the appliance run at least
2 hours on the higher settings before
putting food in the compartment.
Prepare food in small portions to enable
it to be rapidly and completely frozen
and to make it possible to subsequently
thaw only the quantity required.
Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or
cling wraps which are airtight.
Do not allow unfrozen food to touch the
food which is already frozen to avoid
temperature rise of the latter.
Iced products (ice cubes, popsicles): if
consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer
compartment, may
cause frost burns to the skin.
It is recommended to label and date
each frozen package in order to keep
track of the storage time.
Hints for the storage of frozen food
Ensure that frozen food has been stored
properly by the food retailer.
Once defrosted, food will deteriorate
rapidly and should not be re-frozen. Do
not exceed the storage period indicated
by the food manufacturer.
