Storing Fresh Foods
Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food,
correct temperature and taking into account hygienic
precautions will substantially influence the quality of
the food stored.
• Foods to be stored in the refrigerator should be
properly packed so as to prevent mixing various
moisture degrees and odors (in polyethylene bags
or sheet, aluminum foil, wax paper, or stored in
covered containers or bottles).
•Before storing food in the refrigerator, remove
excessive packaging (like yogurt in multi-package).
• Pack systematically and make sure that
foodstuffs do not touch each other (various odors
may mix). Assure adequate air circulation
around packages.
• Never store flammable, volatile or
explosive substances.
• Beverages with high alcohol percentage shall
be stored in tightly sealed bottles in
vertical position.
• Food should not touch the rear wall of
the refrigerator
• Foods should be cooled down before storing.
• Crispy and delicate foods should be stored in the
coldest parts of the refrigerator.
•Try not to open the door too often.
• Set the thermostat to a setting where lowest
temperatures are reached. Set the thermostat
gradually so as to avoid freezing of foods. Use a
thermometer and measure the temperature in the
individual compartments. Place the thermostat in a
glass vessel filled with water. Temperature readings
are most reliable a few hours after a steady state
condition is reached.
• Some organic solutions like volatile oils in lemon
and orange peel, acid in butter etc. can cause
damage when in contact with plastic surfaces or
gaskets for long periods of time.
• Unpleasant odors inside the refrigerator is a sign
that something is wrong with foods or that your
refrigerator needs cleaning. Unpleasant odors can
be eliminated or reduced by washing the interior of
the refrigerator with mild solution of water and
vinegar. We also recommend using activated carbon
filters to clean the air or to neutralize odors.
• If you are planning a long journey, make sure to
remove perishable articles of food out of the
appliance before you leave.
