PART 3. FOOD STORAGE IN THE APPLIANCE
Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is used for storing fresh food for a few days.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment. Leave some
space around food to allow circulation of air.
• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquid in the refrigerator.
• Always store food in closed containers or wrapped.
• To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed containers in the
refrigerator.
• Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is recommended to be placed on the glass shelf just above the
vegetable bin, where the air is colder.
• You can put fruit and vegetables into the crisper without packaging.
• To avoid cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often, and not leave the door open for a long
time.
• For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of your
refrigerator to +4 °C.
• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh foods below 0 °C
are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.
• Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass outside. Hot
foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning and unnecessary spoiling of
the food.
• Meat, fish, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable
compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)
• To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored together.
• Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent moisture and
odors.
