FOOD STORAGE TIPS
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, let
the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings
before putting food in the compartment.
Freezing food
•
Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be
rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible
to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
•
Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene
food wraps which are airtight.
•
Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food
which is already frozen to avoid temperature rise of
the latter.
•
Iced products, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer compartment, may cause frost burns
to the skin.
•
It is recommended to label and date each frozen
package in order to keep track of the storage time.
•
Don't store warm food or evaporating liquid in
the appliance.
•
Once defrosted, food will deteriorate rapidly and
should not be re-frozen. Do not exceed the storage
period indicated by the food manufacturer.

Energy saving tips
We recommend that you follow the tips below to
save energy.
•
Avoid keeping the door open for long periods in order
to conserve energy.
•
Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat.
(Direct sunlight, electric oven or cooker etc.)
•
Don't set the temperature colder than necessary.
•
Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator,
the internal temperature will increase resulting in the
compressor having to work harder and will consume
more energy.
