STORING FOOD
Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage.
To maximize the shelf life of perishable food products,
ensure that the food is of the freshest possible quality. The
following is a general guide to help promote longer food
storage.
Fruit / Vegetables
To minimise moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be
loosely enclosed in a plastic material (e.g. wrap, bags) and
placed in the vegetable crisper.
Dairy Product & Eggs
• Most dairy products have a use by date on the outer
packaging which informs the recommended temperature
and shelf life of the product.
• Eggs should be stored in the Egg pocket.
Meats / Fish / Poultry
• Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or plastic
wrap.
• For larger cuts of meat, fish, or poultry, place to the rear
of the shelves.
• Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or placed in
an airtight container.

NOTE :
• Evenly place the food on the shelves to allow
the cooling air to circulate efficiently.
• Hot foods should be cooled before storing.
Storing hot foods increases the
temperature in the unit and increases the
risk of food spoilage.
• Do not block the outlet and inlet of the cool
air circulating circuit with foods or
containers; otherwise the foods will not be
evenly cooled throughout the refrigerator.
• Do not place food directly in front of cold
air outlet.
This may lead
to the food
freezing.
•
Keep the door securely closed.
FOR BEST FREEZING
• Quality of foods should be fresh.
• Freeze small quantities of food at a time to freeze them
quickly.
• Food should be properly stored or covered and the air
should be removed to seal tightly.
• Evenly place the food in the freezer.
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of freezing
food.
It is normal. The hot pipe is in the cabinet in order to prevent dew generation.
It is normal for the refrigerator to produce the following sounds.
• Loud noise produced by the compressor when operation starts
--- Sound becomes quieter after a while.
• Loud noise produced once a day by the compressor
--- Operating sound produced immediately after automatic defrost operation.
• Sound of flowing fluid (gurgling sound, fizzing sound)
--- Sound of refrigerant flowing in pipes (sound may become louder from
time to time).
• Cracking or crunching sound, Squeaking sound --- Sound produced by
expansion and contraction of inner walls and internal parts during cooling.
This may occur in one of the following cases. Use a wet cloth for wiping frost
and a dry cloth for wiping dew.
• When the ambient humidity is high.
• When the door is frequently opened and closed.
• When foods containing plenty of moisture are stored. (Wrapping is required.)
• Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with REFRIGERATOR TEMP.
CONTROL set at MAX?
• Low ambient temperature may cause food to freeze even if
REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL is set to MIN.
(Refer to temperature adjustment setting on page 4)
• Wrapping is required for the food with strong odours.
• Deodorizing unit cannot remove all of the odours
