Using the refrigerator efficiently
38
Food which is not suitable for
storage in the refrigerator
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration
at temperatures below 5 °C because it
is sensitive to cold. Depending on the
type of food, the appearance,
consistency, flavour and/or vitamin
content may be altered if stored at too
cold a temperature.
Foods which are sensitive to cold
include:
– Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangoes, melons,
papayas, passionfruit, citrus fruits
such as lemons, oranges,
mandarines, grapefruits
– Fruit (which is not yet ripe)
– Eggplants, cucumbers, potatoes,
capsicums, tomatoes, zucchini
– Hard cheeses, e.g. Parmesan,
mountain cheese
Notes on buying food
The freshness of the food when it is first
placed in the appliance is the most
important factor for how long it stays
fresh. Freshness is essential for a long
shelf life.
Take into account the use-by date and
the correct storage temperature.
Time out of the refrigerator, e.g.
transporting food in a warm car, should
be kept to a minimum.
Useful tip:
Take a cooling bag when
shopping, and load food in the
appliance as soon as possible.
Storing food correctly
Ensure that food stored in the
refrigerator section is in packaging or
covered properly (some exceptions
apply in the PerfectFresh Pro zone).
This will prevent food smells from
affecting other foods, food from drying
out, and also any cross-contamination
of bacteria. This is especially important
when storing meat products.
By ensuring that the temperature
settings are correct and by taking
appropriate hygiene measures, you can
prolong the storage life of your food
considerably.
