SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE

STORING FOOD

Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and avor.

Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons.

Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills!

When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.

Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even.

Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, and cause temperatures to rise.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.

Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrition.

When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.

Freezer Door Basket, marked is -12°C compartment, that is suitable for short term storage of frozen food (optional).

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves, it could freeze by direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in the covered container.

It is desirable to store moist food (especially vegetable

and fruit) in the vegetable storage compartment. If it is necessary to store on a shelf of the refrigerator, put it

close to the door away from the back wall of the

refrigerator to avoid being frozen by direct contact with chilled air.

Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.

When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in a upright position, which keeps them fresh for longer time.

16

Don't be alarmed.

This is due to the anticondensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerant to prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.

Pipe

Anti-Condensation

CLEANING

It is important that your refrigerator is kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be wiped immediately, since it may acidify and

stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface.
