For best food care
Store only high-quality, fresh food in your refrigerator.
z
Store perishable foods in the refrigerator immediately after purchase. Storing at room
z
temperature increases the rate of deterioration and can allow harmful microbial growth.
Foods such as meat, poultry and seafood should be well wrapped or sealed in
z
suitable packaging to prevent dehydration, colour deterioration, loss of flavour, and
transfer of odour.
We recommend storing these foods on the bottom shelf of your refrigerator to
z
prevent potential spills and cross-contamination with other foods.
Ensure hot foods and beverages are cooled sufficiently before placing them into
z
the refrigerator. Hot items may cause other foods to warm to unsafe temperatures. Hot
items may also cause sealed items to sweat/condensate — which is undesirable.
Beverages are best stored standing upright in the door shelves or on the bottle
z
racks provided.
Ensure raw and cooked foods are stored separately to avoid cross-contamination.
z
Consume food items within the recommended storage times. Discard foods that
z
show sign of spoilage.
Keep door openings to a minimum to maintain optimum storage temperatures inside
z
your refrigerator.
We recommend using
z
such as after grocery shopping. This feature will ensure the food is frozen within the
shortest period of time, locking in the freshness and extending the shelf life of your food.
For storage of general household foods in the most efficient manner, it is recommended
z
to use the product in the factory configuration supplied. Moving the shelves and bins will
have a minimal impact on efficiency.
Storing at temperatures other than settings recommended may impact the storage life.
z
Items stored in your refrigerator
Dairy items such as butter and cheeses should be stored in the door shelf to minimise
z
any transfer of odour or odour absorption from other foods.
Eggs should be stored in their carton to avoid absorption of strong odours through
z
their porous shell structure.
