Tips:
• When shopping always look for the freshest foods. Quality and
freshness are crucial to how long food can be kept.
• Always store meat and fish wrapped and dry.
• Foodstuffs rich in protein spoil more quickly: Shellfish and
crustaceans go off more quickly than fish and fish in turn goes off
more quickly than meat. By storing them in the 0°C section, the
storage period even for these foodstuffs can be increased by up to 3
times without loss of quality.
• All food that is stored in the LONGFRESH 0 °C cold zone should be
removed from the drawers approx. 15 - 30 minutes before
consumption. Aroma and taste develop at room temperature and the
enjoyment of the food is increased.
• Food stored in the refrigerator compartment should always be
covered or packed so that they do not dry out, lose their flavour, or
transfer their flavour to any other refrigerated food. The following
are suitable for packing:
– polyethylene bags;
– plastic containers with lids;
– special plastic covers with rubber retainers;
– aluminium foil.
