Fresh Food Refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquid in the refrigeator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.
• Position food so that air can circulate freely round it.
Useful hints:
Meat
(all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above
the vegetable drawer(s).
For safety, store in this way only one or two days
at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc
: these should be covered and may be placed
on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables:
these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the
special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese:
these should be placed in special airtight containers or
wapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as pos-
sible.
Milk bottles:
these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle
rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in
the refrigerator.
Drawer
The drawer is suitable for storing
fruit and vegetables. There is a
separator inside the drawer that
can be placed in different posi-
tions to allow for the subdivision
best suited to personal needs.
There is a grille on the bottom of
the drawer to separate the fruit
and vegetables from any humidity
that may form on the bottom
surface.
To remove the drawer, use the side handles (as shown in the drawing).
All parts inside the drawer can be removed for cleaning purposes.
