ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
CHAPTER - 3
Refrigerator compartment
• To reduce humidity and consequent increase of frost never place liquids in unsealed
containers in the refrigerator.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at
room temperature and arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment.
• Arrange meat and cleaned sh (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) and use
them within 1-2 days.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into the crisper without any packaging.
Important note:
• Cover any cooked dishes when you put them in the fridge. Place them in the fridge
when they are cool, otherwise temperature/humidity
inside the fridge increases which causes the fridge
to work harder. Covering food and beverages also
preserves their avour and aroma.
• Potatoes, onion and garlic should not be kept in the
fridge.
• Make sure food does not touch the temperature sensor
which is located in the refrigerator compartment.
To keep an optimum temperature in the refrigerator
compartment, make sure food doesn’t make contact
with the sensor.
• For normal working conditions, it will be sufcient to
adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4 °C.
• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh
foods below 0 °C are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.
• Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass
outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning
and unnecessary spoiling of the food.
• Meat, sh, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable
compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)
• To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored
together.
• Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent
moisture and odors.
