STORE FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE

FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage
location for ready meals, cakes and pastries,
preserved food, condensed milk, hard cheese, fruit
and vegetables sensitive to cold as well as tropical
fruit.
The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator
compartment results in zones with different
temperatures. It is coldest directly above the
vegetable drawers and at the rear wall. It is
warmest at the top front of the compartment.
NOTE: Insufficient ventilation results in an
increase in energy consumption and reduction of
the refrigerating performance.
Advice for storing fresh food
• Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum and
glass containers and cling film to wrap foods.
• Always use closed containers for liquids and for
food that may give off or be tainted by odor or
flavor transfer or cover them.
• Foods which give off a large amount ethylene
gas and those that are sensitive to this gas,
such as fruit, vegetables and salad, should
always be separated or wrapped so as not
to reduce the storage life; for example do
not store tomatoes together with kiwi fruits or
cabbage.
• Do not store food too close together to enable
sufficient air circulation.
• To ensure bottles do not tip over: move the
bottle holder.
Is recommended to arrange the food as
follows:
• On the fridge shelves: baked products, ready
meals, fruit and vegetables sensitive to cold,
small packages.
• In the cooler compartment: dairy products,
meat and sausage.
• In the fruits and vegetables crisper: vegetables,
salad, fruit.
• In the door (from top to bottom): butter, cheese,
eggs, tubes, small bottles, milk, juice cartons.

Advice for storing frozen food

have already begun.
