Defrosting food for cooking

Should food become partially thawed, or defrosted it should

be consumed as soon as possible as the quality will be

affected by defrosting.

Always make sure that food is thoroughly

defrosted before cooking and no ice crystals

remain. This is especially important for

poultry, as this can be extremely harmful to

health.

Always follow the defrosting instructions
on packaging when defrosting ready meals
– manufacturers’ guidelines are always best, as
some frozen foods should be cooked from frozen.

About your Refrigeration Compartment

Temperature differences exist inside the refrigerator so it

is sensible to store different foods in different areas of the

appliance.

1. Eggs, butter and cheeses. (Dairy compartment with

cover)

2. Smaller bottles, cans, jars, packages.

3. Large bottles, soft drinks, water, wine etc.

4. Any fresh produce – store carefully to avoid cross

contamination.

5. Salad / vegetable drawer

6. Fresh, uncooked meats – store carefully to avoid cross

contamination and spillages.

Crisper compartment

To keep fruit and vegetables crisp and fresh, this appliance

has a crisper compartment with adjustable humidity.

High humidity will keep foods such as grapes, cucumbers,

kiwi etc. fresh and crisp - this is achieved by opening fewer

holes in the moisture control.

Lower humidity is ideal for storing foods such as

strawberries, melons, tomatoes and beans. Opening

more holes in the moisture control will lower the humidity

accordingly.

Always make sure that the front edge of the crisper

compartment is underneath the crisper cover. When

removing the crisper, remove the compartment first before

the cover.

To remove the cover of the crisper (for cleaning etc.) remove

the drawer first. Lift the food shelf in an upward direction at

the rear (1) and pull it towards you (2). Then turn the shelf

into position (3). You must have the appliance door open by

90°.
