Practical tips and notes
Cooling
• Clean fresh food and vegetables before storing
in the crisper bin.
• Always pack or wrap food, or put it in a suitable
container, before storing it in the appliance.
• Wrap food which is not suitable for storage at
cold temperatures in polyethylene bags
(pineapple, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes etc.).
• Food with strong odour or apt to acquire odour
should be wrapped in airtight or smellproof
packaging material.
• Keep fresh food separate from cooked food, to
avoid bacteria contamination.
• Never keep fresh meat in the fridge for more
than 2 or 3 days.
• Remove any left-over canned food from the can
and store it in a suitable container.
• Refer to the shelf life indicated on the food
packaging.
• Do not obstruct the air circulation inside the
device by covering the shelves.
• Never keep any dangerous or poisonous
substances inside your device.
• Always check food that has been stored for a
long period of time for its suitability for
consumption.
• Do not store fresh and cooked food together in
the same container.
• Close the door immediately after opening, to
avoid unnecessary energy consumption.
• Do not use hard or sharp objects to remove the
ice build-up.
• Do not load hot food into your appliance.
Freezing
• Always leave food to thaw in a container that
allows the thawing water to run off.
• Do not exceed the maximum allowable freezing
capacity when freezing fresh food (see the section
"Freezing")
• Do not give children ice-cream and water ices
direct from the freezer.
The low temperature may cause freeze burns on
lips.
• Never re-freeze defrosted food; defrosted food
must be consumed within 24 hours. Only food that
has been cooked can be refrozen.
• Do not take out frozen food with wet hands.
• Store only fresh and impeccable food.
• Always use appropriate packaging material to
avoid odour penetration or degradation of the
food.
• Store commercially frozen food in accordance
with the instructions given on the packaging.
• Freeze cooked food in small quantities. This
ensures rapid freezing and maintains the quality of
the food.
• Do not freeze liquid in tightly closed bottles or
containers.
The bottles/containers may burst at low
temperatures.
• Carry pre-frozen food in suitable bags and place
it in your freezer as soon as possible.
Always defrost food in the fridge compartment.
