Storing food in the refrigerator section
60
- Raw milk cheese and other raw milk
products
- Pre-packed vegetables
- 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.
Food which is sensitive to cold in-
cludes:
- Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangoes, melons,
papayas, passionfruit, citrus fruit
such as lemons, oranges, mandarins,
grapefruit
- 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 the food when it is first
placed in the appliance is the most im-
portant factor for how long it stays
fresh.
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.
Storing food correctly
Ensure that food stored in the refriger-
ator section is in packaging or covered
properly (some exceptions apply in the
PerfectFresh Active zone). This will pre-
vent food odours from affecting other
food, stop food from drying out and
also prevent any cross-contamination
of bacteria. This is particularly important
when storing meat products. Make sure
that food such as raw meat and fish in
particular does not come into contact
with other food.
By ensuring that the temperature set-
tings are correct and by taking appro-
priate hygiene measures, you can pro-
long the storage life of your food con-
siderably and avoid food waste.
