GENERAL FRIDGE/FREEZER USE
• Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
• Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the
refrigerator.
• Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator.
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before putting into the fridge.
• Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This will help prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and avoid
unpleasant odours.
• Sort foods prior to storing. Any foods to be used soon should be stored at the front of the shelf to prevent deterioration caused
by the door being open for prolonged periods.
• Do not overll the fridge. his appliance has a forced air system allowing the cool air to circulate evenly inside the fridge so there
should be sufcient space between the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
• Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help to keep the temperature low and save energy.
• Never store raw meats on shelves above cooked meats or other produce. This will help to prevent juices from raw meat
contaminating other foodstuffs.
• The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
• Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be
stored for more than three months after the purchase date.
• Store food in small packages (ideally less than 1kg). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after
thawing.
• Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
• Label the food before freezing with information including type of food and dates of storage and expiry.
• Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen. Only defrost as much food as is required to prevent wastage.
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartments as they could explode.
• The maximum amount of fresh food that can be frozen within a 24 hour period is 2.5 kg .
• Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.
• To freeze fresh food more quickly, switch on the super freeze function a few hours prior to placing the food in the freezer.
