Dual Cooling System
Your refrigerator is equipped with two separate cooling systems to cool the fresh food compartment and freezer compartment.
Thus, the air and odor in the fresh food compartment and the frozen food compartment do not get mixed.
Thanks to these two separate cooling systems, cooling speed is much higher than that of other refrigerators. Also, additional power saving is provided since the defrosting is performed separately.
Freezing Fresh Food
Wrap the foods or place them in a covered container before putting them in the refrigerator.
- Hot foods and beverages must cool down to the room temperature before you put them in the refrigerator.
- The food that you want to freeze must be fresh and in good quality.
- Divide the food into portions according to your family’s daily or meal based consumption needs.
- Pack the foods in an airtight manner to prevent them from drying even if they are going to be stored for a short time.
- Materials to be used for packaging must be tear-proof and resistant to cold, humidity, odor, oils and acids and they must also be airtight. Moreover, they must be well closed and they must be made from easy-to-use materials that are suitable for deep-freezers.
- Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be refrozen.
- Do not freeze too large quantities of food at one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
- Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the cooling system to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid.
Recommendations for Storing Frozen Food
- Frozen foods you purchase must be stored according to the conditions and temperature determined by the food manufacturer.
- Note the following to ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained:
- Put packages in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
- Make sure that the content of the package is labeled and dated.
- Check whether the “Use By” or “Best Before” date on the packaging is expired or not.
