Packing frozen food If you select suitable packaging material and the correct type of packaging, you can determine the product quality and prevent freezer burn. 1. Place the food in the packaging. 2. Squeeze out the air. 3. Pack food airtight to prevent it from losing flavour and drying out. 4. Label the packaging with the contents and the date of freezing. 12.5Shelf life of frozen food at -18 °C Food Fish, sausages, prepared meals and baked goods Poultry, meat Vegetables, fruit Storage time up to 6 months up to 8 months up to 12 months The imprinted freezer calendar indicates the maximum storage duration in months at a constant temperature of 18 °C. 12.6Defrosting methods for frozen food CAUTION Risk of harm to health! During the thawing process, bacteria may multiply and spoil the frozen food. Do not refreeze food after it has been defrosted or started to defrost. Refreeze food only after cooking. These items should no longer be stored for the maximum storage period. ¡ Defrost animal-based food, such as fish, meat, cheese, quark, in the refrigerator compartment. ¡ Defrost bread at room temperature. ¡ Prepare food for immediate consumption in the microwave, in the oven, or on the hob. 22 13Defrosting Defrosting De fr os ting 13.1Defrosting in the refrigerator compartment When the appliance is operating, condensation droplets or frost form on the rear panel of the refrigerator compartment due to functional reasons. The back panel in the refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically.
