Storing food in the refrigerator section
36
– Other fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4 °C
Food which is not suitable for
storage in the refrigerator sec-
tion
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration
at temperatures below 5 °C, because it
may be sensitive to cold. Depending on
the type of food, the appearance, con-
sistency, flavour and/or vitamin content
may be altered if stored at too cold a
temperature.
Foods which are sensitive to cold in-
clude:
– Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangoes, melons,
papayas, passionfruit, citrus fruits
such as lemons, oranges, mandarins,
grapefruits
– Fruit (which is not yet ripe)
– Aubergines, cucumbers, potatoes,
peppers, tomatoes, courgettes
– Hard cheeses (e.g. Parmesan, moun-
tain cheese)
Notes on buying food
The freshness of food when first placed
in the appliance is an important factor
in determining how long it stays fresh,
and how long it can be kept in the ap-
pliance.
Take into account the use-by date and
the correct storage temperature.
Time out of the refrigerator, e.g. trans-
porting food in a warm car, should be
kept to a minimum.
Tip:
Take an insulated cool bag when
shopping, and load food in the appli-
ance as soon as possible.
Storing food correctly
Food should generally be stored
covered or packaged in the refrigerator
section (there are some exceptions to
this rule in the PerfectFresh zone - see
below). This will prevent food smells
from affecting other foods, food from
drying out, and also any cross-contam-
ination of bacteria. This is especially im-
portant for storing protein-based food
such as meat or fish.
The growth of bacteria, such as sal-
monella, can be avoided by setting the
correct temperature and maintaining
good standards of hygiene.
