 Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance, do not store warm 
food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; do 
cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong 
flavour.
Do not cover the shelves with any protective material, 
such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which may 
obstruct the air circulation through them.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are 
some more useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & wild fowl): wrap in 
polythene bags and place on top of the salad crisper.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one 
or two days at the most.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly 
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad crispers.

Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special 
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or 
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.

Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be 
stored in the bottle rack on the door.

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with 
runners so that shelves can be positioned as desired 
(Fig. 5).

Positioning the door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of various sizes, 
the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To do this proceed as per Fig. 6.
