When the door is open for more than 3 minutes, the display will be continuously on, the buzzer will buzz until the door is
shut ; the display is restored to stand by start. A faulty temperature transducer will cause alarm until the fault is removed.
Tips for keeping food perfect in the Fridge:
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a
plate that is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the Fridge, ensuring all parts of the Fridge are kept cool.
Wrap up food!
To prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need
not be wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the Fridge. This will help to stop the internal temperature of the
Fridge from rising.
Shut the door!
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door. When returning from shopping, sort
foods to be kept in your Fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.
Tips for shopping for frozen foods:
Yours is 4 star
Freezer
When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item
of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star rating. This is usually the period stated as “Best, Before”, found
on the front of the packaging.
Check the Fridge/Freezer temperature
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen foods. It should show a
temperature lower than -18
ᵒ
C.
Choose packs carefully
Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
Purchase frozen food last
Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
Keep frozen foods together
Try to keep frozen food together while shopping and on the trip home as this will help to keep the food cooler.
Store food right away
Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it right away. Special insulated bags can be bought from most
supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep frozen food colder longer.
Thawing frozen food
For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water
or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until thawed.
Freezing fresh foods, useful tips
Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities, it freezes faster, takes less time to
thaw and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.
Freezing fresh foods
First, estimate the amount of food you will be freezing. If you are freezing large amounts of fresh food, remember to
use the “fast freezing” function. This will lower the temperature in the Freezer (approx -30
ᵒ
C), freezing your food
quicker and helping to keep the goodness in. However you should do this sparingly to conserve energy.
Preparations for freezing
-
Leave cooked food to cool completely.
-
Chill food in a Fridge before freezing if possible.
