Tips for refrigerating fresh food
• Do not place hot food directly in the refrigerator or freezer. They will increase the
internal temperature so that the compressor will have to run more and consume more
energy.

Tips for freezing food
• When using for the first time or after a long period of inactivity, let the appliance run at full
speed for at least 2 hours before placing the food in the compartment.
• Separate your food into small portions so that it is frozen quickly and completely and so
that only the desired amount can be defrosted afterwards.
• Pack food in airtight aluminum or polyethylene bags.
• Avoid contact between fresh, unfrozen food and food already frozen to avoid increasing the
temperature of the latter.
• Frozen products can cause frostbite if eaten immediately after being taken out of the
freezer.
• We recommend that you label and date each frozen package in order to follow shelf life.
