Fish: thaw in the refrigerator compartment without unwrapping or cook before fully thawed. In the event of a power failure, the freezer compartment maintains the appropriate storage temperature for approximately 12 hours; during this time, we suggest you leave the door of the compartment closed. Previously cooked food: reheat in the oven without removing it from its aluminium container. Fruit: thaw in the refrigerator compartment NOTE: never place warm food in the freezer.
