Arranging Food Within the Appliance
General advice
•
We recommend that meat and clean fish are wrapped and stored in the dedicated chiller drawer. Store
vegetables separately in the vegetable storage drawer. This provides the best storage conditions.
•
Make sure that items are not in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop;
packaging will stick to it.
•
Do not put food in front of the air flow vents.
Storing loose fruit and vegetables
Use the vegetable crisper.
Ensure items are not wet. Store fruit
separately to help prevent ethylene
-releaser fruits (*) affecting ethylene
sensitive vegetables. For best
conditions, use the vegetable storage
drawer.
Do not
store potatoes or onions
in the fridge.
*
Avoiding cross contamination
Storage time for all food products depends
on the initial quality of the food and an
uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before
refrigerator storage.
•
Do not store meat or fish with fruit
and vegetables. Water leakage may
contaminate other products. Wrap meat
and clean any leakages on the shelves.
Reducing humidity and frost forming
Always store liquids in sealed
containers in the refrigerator.
Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts
of the evaporating liquid and, in time, your
appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
•
Place these items in the door shelves, where
the temperature the is not too cold.
A sealed container helps liquid retain its taste and smell.
Storing raw meat, poultry and fish
Store in the chiller drawer where the air is cooler, or the
lowest shelf to prevent dripping onto other foods.
•
Wrap meat / poultry loosely in polythene or aluminium foil.
•
Wrap fish and offal in polythene bags.
