Two star freezer compartment
Two star freezer compartment
Reaches −12 °C. Store already-frozen food for about a month.
★★
What it looks like
Two stars marked on the compartment.
What it means
The middle rating, found in older fridge-freezers and in small under-counter units. At −12 °C enzymatic and oxidative changes continue slowly, so texture and flavour fade over weeks rather than months, and ice cream stays soft enough to serve directly. Still not a compartment for freezing fresh food.
Defined by ISO 8561 / EN 62552. Where a symbol differs between standards, the difference is described above rather than resolved — both versions are in circulation on real labels.
