Helpful Hints And Tips - Electrolux IK1910SZR User Manual

• The whole storage cycle time will de-
pend on the preservation conditions
made prior to the final storage in the
fridge.
• Food, fruit or vegetables should always
be packed or wrapped up before stor-
age.
• Animal food always store packed and
dry.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad quick-
er. This means seafood will spoil before
fish which in turn will spoil before meat.
While storing food in a NaturaFresh
compartment storage time for that kind
of food can be increased by up to three
times as well without loss on quality.
• All food stored in a NaturaFresh com-
partment should be taken out of the
drawers roughly 15-30 min before con-
sumption, particularly fruit and vegeta-
bles to be consumed without any addi-
tional cooking process. Allowing fruit
and vegetables to return to room tem-
perature will improve the texture and
flavour.

4. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

4.1 Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the Temperature Regulator is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run con-
tinuously, causing frost or ice on the
evaporator. If this happens, set the
Temperature Regulator toward warmer
settings to allow automatic defrosting
and so a saving in electricity consump-
tion.
4.2 Hints for fresh food
refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if
it has a strong flavour
3.11 Drawer
The compartment has stops to prevent
the drawers from falling out when fully ex-
tended.
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
4.3 Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or
two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these
should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruits and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the spe-
cial drawer(s) provided. When in contact,
lemon juice can discolor the plastic parts
of your fridge. It is therefore recommen-
ded to keep citruses in separate contain-
ers.
Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.
