The
following
guidelines
and
recommendations are suggested to
obtain the best
results and storage hygiene.
1.
The fridge compartment is for the
short term storage of fresh food and
drinks.
2.
The freezer compartment is rated and
suitable for the freezing and storage
of frozen food. The recommendation
for storage as stated on the food
packaging should be observed at all
times.
3.
Cooked dishes must be stored in
airtight covered containers.
4.
Fresh wrapped produce can be
placed on the shelf. Fresh fruit and
vegetables should be cleaned and
stored in the crisper bins.
5.
Bottles can be placed in the door
section.
6.
To store raw meat, wrap in polythene
bags and place on the lowest
shelf. Do not allow to come into
contact with cooked food to avoid
contamination. For safety, only store
raw meat for two to three days.
7.
Keep the food packed wrapped
or covered. Allow hot food and
beverages to cool before placing
them in the fridge. Do not store
explosive substances. High proof
alcohol must be stored upright in
sealed containers. Left over canned
food should not be stored in the can.
8.
Fizzy drinks should not be frozen and
products such as flavoured water
ices should not be consumed too
cold.
9.
Some fruit and vegetables suffer
damage if kept at temperatures near
0°C. Therefore wrap pineapples,
melons, cucumbers, tomatoes and
similar produce in polythene bags.
10.
Place chilled cooked food and similar
food near the rear of the fridge inner
liner where the cold wall is located.
11.
Shelves, racks, crisper bins,
drawers, flaps, bottle grippers are all
removable.
12.
Do not leave frozen food at room
temperature to thaw; the best way to
defrost food is to put it in the fridge
to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid
defrosting food or food juices drip
onto other food.
13.
For hygiene reasons, always wrap
food using a suitable packaging
material before storing in your
appliance to avoid contact with the
appliance surface.
