Storage of food
Your appliance has the accessories as the “Description of the appliance” showed in general, with
this part instruction you can have the right way to storage your food.
Food is not allowed to touch directly all surfaces inside the appliance. It has to be wrapped
separately in aluminum sheet or in cellophane sheet or in airtight plastic boxes.
Store food in refrigerator compartment.
The fridge freezer compartment helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods.
Fresh food care for best results:
Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.
Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from
dehydrating, deteriorating in color or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also
prevent odor transfer. Vegetables and fruit need not be wrapped if they are stored in the
vegetable container of the fridge compartment.
Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such
as butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odors.
Cool hot foods down before placing them in the fridge compartment.
Dairy foods and eggs
Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended ‘use by /best before/best by/ date stamped
on them. Store them in the fridge compartment and use within the recommended time.
Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best stored in a sealed container.
Eggs should be stored in the fridge compartment.
Red meat
Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil.
Store cooked and raw meat with separate plates. This will prevent any juice lost from the raw
meat from contaminating the cooked product.
Poultry
Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside and out with cold running water, dried and placed
on a plate. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil.
Poultry pieces should also be stored this way. Whole poultry should never be stuffed until
just before cooking, otherwise food poisoning may result.
Fish and seafood
Whole fish and fillets should be used on the day of purchase. Until required, refrigerate on a
plate loosely covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil.
If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to select very fresh fish. Whole fish should
be rinsed in cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then patted dry with paper towels.
Place whole fish or fillets in a sealed plastic bag.
Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within 1 – 2 days.
