• Cold sensitive fruit which have to be
stored at cellar or room temperature
like pineapple, bananas, grapefruit,
melons, mango, papaya, oranges,
lemons, kiwi fruit.
• Vegetables which have to be stored at
room temperature like tomatoes,
potatoes, onions, and garlic.
• The types of food not mentioned
above should be stored in the
refrigerator compartment (e.g. all
sorts of cheese, cold cuts, etc.).
The level of air humidity in
the drawers depends on the
content of humidity in the
stored food, vegetable and
fruit and on the frequency of
door opening.
The LongFresh compartment is also
suitable for slow thawing of food. In this
case the thawed food can be stored in
the LongFresh compartment for up to
two days.
• Pay attention to the freshness of the
food, especially on the expiry date.
Quality and freshness influence the
storage time.
• The whole storage cycle time will
depend on the preservation conditions
made prior to the final storage in the
fridge.
• Any type of food, fruit, vegetable or
animal food shall always be packed or
wrapped up before storage.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad
quicker. This means seafood will spoil
before fish which in turn will spoil
before meat. While storing food in a
LongFresh compartment storage time
for that kind of food can be increased
by up to three times as well without
loss on quality.
• All food stored in a LongFresh
compartment should be taken out of
the drawers roughly 15 - 30 min
before consumption, particularly fruit
and vegetables to be consumed
without any additional cooking
process. Allowing fruit and vegetables
to return to room temperature will
improve the texture and flavour.
7. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
7.1 Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first
time, the interior and all internal
accessories should be washed with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap
to remove the typical smell of a brand-
new product, then dried thoroughly.
CAUTION!
Do not use detergents,
abrasive powders, chlorine
or oil-based cleaners as they
will damage the finish.
CAUTION!
The accessories and parts of
the appliance are not
suitable for washing in a
dishwasher.
7.2 Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned
regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories
with lukewarm water and some
neutral soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and
wipe them clean to ensure they are
clean and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
7.3 Defrosting of the
refrigerator
Defrosting of the fridge compartment is
automatic. The water that condenses
flows into a recipient on the compressor
and evaporates. The recipient cannot be
removed.
