PART 3.
ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Fridge compartment
• To reduce humidity and the consequent increase in frost, never place liquids in
unsealed containers in the fridge compartment. Frost tends to concentrate in the
coldest parts of the evaporating liquid and in time will more frequent defrosting
will be required.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at
room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in
the fridge compartment.
• Nothing should touch the back wall of the appliance as it will cause frost and
packaging to stick to it. Do not open the fridge compartment door too frequently.
• Arrange meat and cleaned fish (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) which
you intend to use in 1-2 days, in the bottom section of the fridge compartment.
• Store fruit and vegetable items loose in the crisper containers.
Freezer compartment
• Use the freezer for storing deep-frozen or frozen food for long periods of time and
making ice cubes.
• Do not store fresh or warm food with frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
• When freezing fresh food (e.g. meat, fish and mincemeat), divide it into portions
that you will consume in one sitting.
• When storing frozen food;
the instructions shown on frozen food packaging
should always be followed carefully and if no information is provided, food should
not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchase date.
• When buying frozen food
ensure that these have been frozen at suitable
temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• If a frozen food package shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable
that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated. Do not buy such food.
• The storage life of frozen food
depends on the room temperature, thermostat
setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time
required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the
instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life
indicated.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking and the food which you need to
freeze more quickly. Fast freezing shelves are the middle drawers of the freezer
compartment (see page 14).
