Helpful hygiene tips
¥ Always wash your hands with soapy water and dry
them with a clean towel before handling food.
¥ Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross
contamination by not using the same work surface
for raw and cooked food without washing it
thoroughly in between.
¥ Use clean kitchen roll wherever possible for
clearing up food. If you use a dishcloth be sure to
boil it frequently.
¥ Regularly remove suspect food from your
refrigerator and clean the interior with a solution of
bicarbonate of soda in warm water (5 ml to 0.5 litre
of water). Never allow spills to dry and harden.
¥ Regularly check the refrigerator door seal to
ensure that it is clean and free from debris.
¥ Make sure that food is used before its Çbest
beforeÈ date.
¥ Cool food as quickly as possible but don't place in
refrigerator or freezer until cool. (Leave food in a
place as cool as possible in order that it can be
placed in the refrigerator or freezer without delay).
¥ Do not store food uncovered.
¥ Do not mix raw and cooked meat, they must be in
separate containers. Take care not to let the meat
juices drip onto other food. If the meat does drip,
remove everything and clean thoroughly.
The freezer compartment
Freezing fresh food
When starting up the appliance for the first time or
after a period of non use, position the thermostat to a
medium setting (3 or 4) and leave for at least 4 hours
before placing the food to be frozen inside.
If you wish to fast-freeze a quantity of fresh food,
press the ambient switch (light on) located near the
thermostat knob. Leave it on this position for 24
hours before placing in the food and set it back to
normal position 24 hours after placing the fresh food
in the freezer.
If the switch is already depressed no further
adjustment is required.
The products for freezing should be placed in the
upper drawer and then transferred to the lower
drawers so that the compartment is left free for the
next freezing operation.
The maximum freezing capacity is 3 kg/24 hours.
Never exceed the quantity indicated in one freezing
batch.
Frozen food storage
Storing ready-frozen foods is quite straightforward.
The packs can be placed beside each other or on top
of each other.
In the first compartment, produce must only be
stacked up to the mark on the drawer to ensure air
circulation is not obstructed.
You are strongly advised to place ready-frozen food
in the compartment as quickly as possible after
purchase. Also ensure that the external packaging is
intact.
Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen
water droplets on the pack could indicate that the
product has not been kept at a suitable temperature
and that it may have lost its original quality. Partially
thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be
consumed within 24 hours. Never exceed the
storage times indicated.
Do not open the freezer door too often and do not
leave open longer than necessary.
