What Not to Store in the Refrigerator
Garlic (transmits odour), onions and leeks.
Bananas (they will turn black).
Citrus fruits.
Potatoes and root vegetables (store in dark, dry places).
- Air in the refrigerator circulates naturally so that colder,
heavier air tends to descend towards the bottom. This is
why meat and cheese should be stored just above the
crisper.
- Remember to follow our instructions on the storage life of
foods: If not stored correctly, even the freshest food will
deteriorate quite quickly.
- Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not keep longer
than fresh food.
- The refrigerator compartment of your appliance is fit-
ted with practical removable shelves (Fig. 1) whose height
can be adjusted to allow storage of large containers. This
shelves can also be tilted for storage of opened bottles.
- Remember to cool hot food before storing otherwise
the temperature inside the appliance will increase, caus-
ing the compressor to work harder and use more energy.
- Do not store liquids in unsealed containers since this will
increase the humidity and lead to the formation of frost in
