Hints for fresh food refrigeration
●
Avoid putting norm food into the
refrigerator, as the internal temperature
will increase resulting in the compressor
having to work harder and will
consume more energy.
●
Do cover or wrap the food
,
particularly if it has a strong flavor.
●
Properly place the food so that air
can circulate freely around it.
Hints for freezing
●
When first starting-up or after a
period out of use, let the appliance run
at least 2 hours on the higher settings
before putting food in the compartment.
●
Prepare food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and completely
frozen and to make it possible to
subsequently thaw only the quantity
required.
●
Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or
polyethylene food wraps which are
airtight.
●
Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to
touch the food which is already frozen
to avoid temperature rise of the latter.
