6.4 Shopping tips

After grocery shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not

damaged - the food could be

deteriorated. If the package is swollen

or wet, it might have not been stored

in the optimal conditions and

defrosting may have already started.

• To limit the defrosting process buy

frozen goods at the end of your

grocery shopping and transport them

in a thermal and insulated cool bag.

• Place the frozen foods immediately in

the freezer after coming back from the

shop.

• If food has defrosted even partially, do

not re-freeze it. Consume it as soon

as possible.

• Respect the expiry date and the

storage information on the package.

6.6 Hints for fresh food

refrigeration

• Good temperature setting that

ensures preservation of fresh food is

a temperature less than or equal to

+4°C.

Higher temperature setting inside the

appliance may lead to shorter shelf

life of food.

• Cover the food with packaging to

preserve its freshness and aroma.

• Always use closed containers for

liquids and for food, to avoid flavours

or odours in the compartment.

• To avoid the cross-contamination

between cooked and raw food, cover

the cooked food and separate it from

the raw one.
