IMPORTANT: Do not expect your freezer to quick-
freeze any large quantity of food. Put
no more
unfrozen food into the freezer than
will freeze
within 24 hours. (No more than 2 to 3 pounds of
food per cubic foot of freezer space.) Leave
enough space for air to circulate around pack-
ages. Be careful to leave enough room at the
front so the door can close tightly.
FOOD STORAGE CHART
Storage times* will vary according to the qual-
ity of the food, the type of packaging or wrap
used (moisture and vapor-proof), and the stor-
age temperature which should be 0 F (
17.8 C)
