Hints for fresh food refrigeration

•

Do not store warm food or evaporating

liquids in the refrigerator.

•

Cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has

a strong flavour.

•

Position food so that air can circulate freely

around it.

Hints for refrigeration

Useful hints:

•

Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable

packaging and place it on the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer. Store meat for

at most 1-2 days.

•

Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and place

on any shelf.

•

Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly and

place in a special drawer. Bananas, potatoes,

onions and garlic must not be kept in the

refrigerator if not packed.

•

Butter and cheese: place in a special airtight

container or wrap in an aluminium foil or

a polythene bag to exclude as much air as

possible.

•

Bottles: close with a cap and place on the

door bottle shelf, or (if available) on the

bottle rack.

Cautions for Use

•

The more food stuff put in or the more and

the longer for once the door is opened, the

more it needs electric consumption, which

even leads malfunction.

•

Re-plug in the power plug at the interval of

over ten minutes.

•

Do not store bottled drink in the freezer,

so as to prevent from being broken and

damaging the refrigerator.

•

Open the door as less as possible during

power-cut.

•

When defrosting, never use any sharp or

metallic objects to remove the frost on the

surface of the evaporator as it will damage

the evaporator.

•

Do not touch foods and containers in the

freezing compartment with your wet hands

so as to prevent from being frostbitten.

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing

process, here are some important hints:

•

The maximum quantity of food which can be

frozen in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.

•

The freezing process takes 24 hours. No

further food to be frozen should be added

during this period.

•

Freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs.

•

Prepare food in small portions to enable it

to be rapidly and completely frozen and to

make it possible subsequently to thaw only

the quantity required.

•

Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or

polythene and make sure that the packages

are airtight.

•

Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch

food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a

rise in temperature of the latter.

•

Lean foods store better and longer than

fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food.

•

Water ices, if consumed immediately after

removal from the freezer compartment, can

possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.

•

It is advisable to show the freezing in date

on each individual pack to enable you to

keep tab of the storage time.

Hints for storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this

appliance, you should:

•

Make sure that the commercially frozen

foodstuffs were adequately stored by the

retailer.

•

Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are

transferred from the food store to the

freezer in the shortest possible time.

•

Do not open the door frequently or leave it

open longer than absolutely necessary.

•

Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly

and cannot be refrozen.

•

Do not exceed the storage period indicated

by the food manufacturer.
