6 storing food electrolux four-door refrigerator

Storing food

Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage. To maximise

the shelf life of perishable food products, ensure that the

food is of the freshest possible quality. The following is a

general guide to help promote longer food storage.

Fruit and vegetables

To minimise moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be

loosely enclosed in a plastic material (e.g. wrap, bags) and

placed in the Vegetable crisper or the Chilled compartment.

Those fruits and vegetables with thick skins do not require

wrapping.

Dairyproductsandeggs

• Most dairy products have a use by date on the

outer packaging which indicates the recommended

temperature and expected life of the product.

• Eggs should be stored in the egg tray.

Meat, ﬁsh and poultry

• Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or plastic

wrap.

• For larger cuts of meat, sh or poultry, place to the rear

of the shelves.

• Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or placed in

an airtight container.

Forbestfreezing

• Food should be fresh.

• Freeze small quantities of food at a time to freeze them

quickly.

• Food should be properly stored in containers or freezer

bags. Air should be removed if possible and seal tightly.

• Evenly place the food in the freezer.

• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of frozen

food.

Some household cleaning chemicals can cause cracks,

splits or discolouration on the inside surface of the

refrigerator and door liner. Only use diluted dishwashing

liquid and ensure that all plastic is wiped with fresh water

after cleaning.

Alkaline detergents may affect the aluminium parts of the

door handle, causing it to tarnish.

1 Remove the shelves and bins from the cabinet and door.

Wash them in warm soapy water; rinse in clean water

and dry.

2 Clean the inside with a cloth soaked in warm soapy

water. Then use cold water to wipe off the soapy water.

3 Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth each time it is soiled.

4 Clean the magnetic door seal with a toothbrush and

warm soapy water.

5 Wipe the control panel with a dry cloth.
