Tips on storing fresh food
Storing into the refrigerator compartment
Keep your fridge temperature below 5°C.
Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the appliance.
Foods stored in the refrigerator should be washed and dried before storing.
Food to be stored should be properly sealed to avoid odor or taste alterations.
Do not store excessive quantities of food. Leave spaces between foods to allow
cold air flowing around them, for a better and more homogeneous cooling.
Foods eaten daily should be stored at the front of the shelf.
Leave a gap between foods and the inner walls, allowing air flowing. In any way, don't
store foods against the rear wall: foods could freeze against the rear wall. Avoid
direct contact of food (especially oily or acidic food) with the inner liner, as oil/acid
can erode the inner liner. Clean away oily/acid dirt whenever it is found.
Frozen food can be gently defrizzed in the refrigerator compartment. This saves
energy.
The ageing process of fruit and vegetables such as courgettis, melons, papaya,
bananas, pineapples, etc. can be accelerated in the refrigerator. Therefore, it is not
recommended to store them in the refrigerator. However, the ripening of strongly
green fruits can be promoted for a certain period. Onions, garlic, ginger and other
root vegetables should also be stored at room temperature.
Unpleasant odours inside the fridge are a sign that something has spilled and
cleaning is required. See Care And Cleaning.
Different foods should be placed in different areas according to their properties .

The recommended weight for each portion is less than 2.5 kg
•
It is better to pack food before putting it into the freezer. The outside of the
packaging must be dry to avoid bags sticking together. Packaging materials
should be odour-free, airtight, non-poisonous and nontoxic.

In order to avoid expiration of storage periods, please note the freezing date,
time limit and name of the food on the packaging according to the storage
periods of different foods.
