Use
Fridge
• 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.
• Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help to keep
the temperature low and save energy.
Freezer
• The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
• Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully
before putting them into the freezer.
7
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen
food. If no information is provided, foods should not be stored for
more than three months after the purchase date.
• Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This reduces
the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after thawing.
• Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping
sticking together, ensure it is dry.
• Label the food before freezing with information including type of
food and dates of storage and expiry.
• Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been
completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is required
to prevent wastage.
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer
compartment as they could explode.
• Check the rating plate to confirm the maximum amount of fresh food
that can be frozen within a 24 hour period.
Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.

Storage
The fridge section is for short term food
storage. Although the temperature
can be maintained between 0-10˚C,
extended periods of food storage is not
recommended.
As the cold air circulates within the
fridge, the temperature can vary
between the dierent sections. As such,
foods should be stored in dierent
sections according to type. Section 6 is
the coldest part of the fridge.
1. Butter
2. Food in jars and bottles
3. Drinks , e.g. milk
4. Cooked food
5. Yogurts and cheese
6. Fresh meat and fish
7. Fruit and vegetables
The fridge shelves can be moved
according to the storage requirements

The salad crisper is designed with a humidity control to ensure fruit
and vegetables last longer.
This can be adjusted by the slider at the front right of the salad crisper.
Fully opening the slider control to high humidity restricts the amount
of dry air entering the crisper from the fridge compartment, extending
the life of items such as lettuce and cucumber.
Open (fully left) = Low.
Closed (fully right) = High.
