STORING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE

The fridge compartment helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods.
Fresh food care
For best results:
Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.
Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from
dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will
also prevent odour transfer.
Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods
such as butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours.
Cool hot foods down before placing them in the appliance.
Dairy foods and eggs
Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended 'use by /best
before/best by/' date stamped on them. Store them in the appliance
and use within the recommended time.
Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best
stored in a sealed container.
Eggs can be stored in the appliance.
