3. FREEZER TEMPERATURE ALLARM:

A1= is activated when freezer temperature is higher than 2°C, or when it varies
from 6°C to 2°C for more than 4 hours.
Food in this case could be used.
A2= is activated when freezer temperature is higher than 8°C, or when the Allarm
A1 has being active for more than 5 days.
Food in this case has to be thrown away.

The type of allarm could be signed in different ways:
