bad odours
•
Materials that may cause odour are not
used in the production of our refrigerators.
However, due to inappropriate food preserv-
ing conditions and not cleaning the inner
surface of the refrigerator as required can
bring forth the problem of odour. Pay atten-
tion to following to avoid this problem:
•
Keeping the refrigerator clean is important.
Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause odour.
Therefore, clean the refrigerator with bi-car-
bonate dissolved in water every few months.
Never use detergents or soap.
•
Keep the food in closed containers.
Microorganisms spreading out from un-
covered containers can cause unpleasant
odours.
•
Never keep the food that have passed best
before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator.
