Fridge Use
• Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
• Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be
allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the
refrigerator.
• Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this
will cause frost and possible condensation problems which will be
dicult to remove.
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before
putting into the fridge.
• Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This will help
prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and avoid unpleasant
odours.
• Sort foods prior to storing. Any foods to be used soon should be
stored at the front of the shelf to prevent deterioration caused by
the door being open for prolonged periods.
• Do not overfill the fridge. There should be sucient space between
the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive
acids or alkalis in the appliance.
This fridge cools your food by making the inside back of the cavity
cold. It is normal for frost to build up on this surface; it then dissipates
and drains through a small drain at the bottom, where it evaporates
harmlessly. The presence of frosting at the back is not a malfunction
of the fridge.
