• The whole storage cycle time will depend 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 storage.
• Animal food always store packed and dry.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad quicker. This means seafood will spoil before fish which
in turn will spoil before meat. While storing food in a 0°C 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 0°C compartment should be taken out of the drawers roughly 15

min before consumption, particularly fruit and vegetables to be consumed without any
additional cooking process. Allowing fruit and vegetables to return to room temperature
will improve the texture and flavour.
HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
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 tempera-
ture and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, 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.
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
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it
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.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special draw-
er(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in alu-
minium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
