Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or the low-temperature
compartment, and some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold.
Food storage location
Due to the cold air circulation in the refrigerator, the temperature of each area in the refrigerator is
different, so different kinds of food should be placed in different areas.
The fresh food compartment is suitable for the storage of such foods as need not to be frozen, the cooked
food, beer, eggs, some condiments that need cold preservation, milk, fruit juice, etc. The crisper box is
suitable for the preservation of vegetables, fruits, etc.
The freezer compartment is suitable for the storage of ice cream, frozen food and the foods to be preserved
for a long time.
Use of the fresh food compartment
Set the temperature of the fresh food storage compartment between 2 °C ~ 8 °C and store the foods that
are intended for short-term storage, or to be eaten at any time in the fresh food compartment.
Fridge shelf: When removing the shelf, lift it up first, and then pull it out; and when installing the shelf, place
it into position before putting it down. (For the two-section shelf, push the first section to the rear end, and
then pull the second section out). Keep the shelf rear flange upward, to prevent foods from contact the liner
wall. When taking out or putting in the shelf, hold it firmly, and handle with care to avoid damage.
Crisper box: Pull out the crisper box for access to food. After using or cleaning the cover plate of the crisper
box, be sure to put it back onto the crisper, so that the internal temperature of the crisper box will not be
affected.
Use of the crisper humidity regulating rod
The humidity regulating rod of the crisper box is design to maintain the humidity and freshness of the
vegetables stored inside. When the humidity regulating rod is slide to the right, with more holes exposed,
lower humidity will be kept inside the crisper box. When the humidity regulating rod is slide to the left, with
less holes exposed, higher humidity will be kept inside the crisper box.
How to use the ice-making box
Place the ice-making box in the upper position of the freezer compartment, so that it ices up as soon as
possible.
Cautions for food storage
You’d better clean the foods and wipe them dry before storing them inside the refrigerator. Before foods
are put in the refrigerator, it is advisable to seal them up, so as to prevent water evaporation to keep fresh
fruits and vegetables on one hand and prevent taint of odour on the other hand.
Do not put too many or too weight foods inside the refrigerator. Keep enough space between foods; if too
close, the cold air flow will be blocked, thus affecting the refrigeration effect. Do not store excessive or
overweight foods, to avoid the shelf from being crushed. When storing the foods, keep a distance away
from the inner wall; and do not place the water-rich foods too close to the fridge rear wall, lest they get
frozen on the inner wall.
Categorized storage of foods
:
Foods should be stored by category, with the foods you eat every day placed
in front of the shelf, so that the door open duration can be shortened and food spoilage due to expiration
can be avoid.
Energy-saving tips: Allow the hot food cool down to the room temperature before putting it in the
refrigerator. Put the frozen food in the fresh food compartment to thaw, using the low temperature of the
frozen food to cool the fresh food, thus saving energy.
Storage of fruits and vegetables
In the case of refrigerating appliances with chill compartment, a statement to the effect that some types of
fresh vegetables and fruits are sensitive to cold and therefore are not suitable for storage in this kind of
compartment should be made.
Use of the frozen food storage compartment
The freezer temperature is controlled below -18
℃
, and it is advisable to store the food for long-term
preservation in the freezer compartment, but the storage duration indicated on the food packaging should
be adhered to.
The freezer drawers are used to store food that needs to be frozen. Fish and meat of large block size should
be cut into small pieces and packed into fresh-keeping bags before they are evenly distributed inside the
freezer drawers.
