Storing fresh food in the refrigerator
Important recommendations for storing fresh food
•
To ensure the quality of fresh food, it is important that:
the food is well-packaged;
-
-
the appliance is at the correct temperature;
-
the appliance is clean.
•
Take good note of the use-by date stated on the food packaging.
•
Put food in the refrigerator in sealed containers or in suitable packaging. This will prevent the food
from picking up or spreading odours and will keep it dry.
•
Do not store flammable, unstable or explosive materials in the refrigerator.
•
Store bottles that have been opened upright and close them tightly.
•
Some organic solutions, such as essential oils, in the skin of lemons and oranges, and butyric
acid, that come into long-term contact with plastics can eat into the material and cause premature
ageing.
•
A disagreeable odour is an indication that the appliance is not clean or that it contains food that
has spoiled (see the chapter ‘Maintenance’).
•
Take perishable foods out of the refrigerator when you will be away from home for a longer time.
Freezing and storing foods in the freezer
Important recommendations for freezing fresh food
•
The maximum quantity of food that you can put in the freezer in one go is stated on the type plate.
Putting more than this maximum quantity of food into the freezer will slow the freezing process
and reduce the quality. Moreover, this will also harm the quality of frozen food already stored in
the freezer.
•
Use only good-quality fresh food that is suitable for freezing.
•
Allow hot food to cool to room temperature.
•
Food needs to be frozen quickly. It is recommended that you use small packs.
•
Use air and watertight packaging to prevent the food from drying out and lose its vitamins.
•
Note the type and quantity of the food on the packaging, together with the date on which it was
frozen.
•
Do not allow fresh food to come into contact with frozen food.
•
You can remove all the drawers to make use of the total volume of the freezer compartment.
•
Put the food directly on a shelf and on the base of the freezer.
Freezing large quantities of fresh food
•
Activate the intensive freezing function 24 hours before you plan to freeze the food.
•
To make sure the food freezes as quickly as possible, lay out the packages as described below:
-
Divide fresh food into smaller packages (1 kg). Place two packages against the back wall
along the left and right edge of the upper drawer, one package in the middle in front of them
(also in the upper drawer), and one package in the middle drawer, against the middle of the
back wall.
•
After 24 hours, you can transfer the food to another compartment in the freezer and then freeze
a new batch of food.
Important recommendations for storing frozen food
•
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the storage and use of frozen food. Take note of the
recommended storage temperature and use-by date stated on the packaging.
•
Use only food in undamaged packaging that has been stored at a temperature of -18 °C or lower.
