Storage of food in the fridge­freezer
Observe the following recommen­ dations to
ensure the food remains fresh.
l The products should be placed on plates, in con-
tainers or packed in food wrap. Di- stribute them
evenly l over the shelves.
l If the food contacts the rear wall, it may cause
frosting or wetting of the products.
l Do not put dishes with hot food t into the
fridge
l Products which absorb flavours easily such as
butter, milk, white cheese and products with intense
flavour, such as fish, smoked meat, hard cheese
must be placed on shelves, packed in food wrap or
in tightly sealed containers.
l The storage of vegetables containing significant
quantities of water will cause the deposition of
condensation on the vegetable containers, it
does not impact on the proper functioning of the
fridge.
l Before putting the vegetables into the fridge, dry
them well.
l Excessive moisture shortens the shelf life of vege-
tables, especially the leafed vegeta- bles.
l Do not wash the vegetables before storing in the
refrigerator. Washing removes the natural protec-
tion, therefore it is better to wash the vegetables
directly before con- sumption.
l Bear in mind that the temperature in the fre-
ezer is affected by several factors, including
the ambient temperature and the quantity of
food products in the chamber, the frequency
of opening the door, the amount of frost in the
freezer, and the thermostat setting.
l If you cannot open the freezer door immedia-
tely after closing it, allow 1­2 minutes for the
negative pressure to com­ pensate, and try
again to open the door.
