• Put eggs into the egg tray as shown in the figure and store the tray in a convenient place in one
of the multi-purpose guards.
Refrigerator compartment: 1°C to 5°C
This is the area where the food should be stored to be kept cold:
• raw and uncooked foods should always be wrapped
• pre-cooked chilled foods, such as ready meals, meat pies, soft cheeses.
• Pre-cooked meats such as beef and ham,
• prepared salads (including pre-washed salad greens, rice, potato salad mixed cut and pre
packaged, etc.).
• desserts, such as fresh cheese, homemade products, and leftovers of the cream or cakes.
Crisper
• This is the wettest part of the refrigerator.
• Vegetables, fruit, fresh salads, unwashed lettuce, tomatoes, and radishes should be stored in this
compartment.
NOTES:
• Always place raw meat, fish and poultry on the lowest shelf of the refrigerator.
• Ensure that food is well-wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from
dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing flavor and will help maintain freshness. It will also
prevent cross-flavouring.
• Never let any oil or grease come into contact with the plastic fittings or door seals, as these
materials easily become porous.
Freezer
Upper freezer shelf
• Store food in small portions
Lower freeze room
• Seal food in containers with lids, in plastic wrap or in plastic bags to prevent drying and the
mingling of odors.
Note: Wrapping food
• Pack the food in suitably sized portions for your household.
• Vegetable and fruit portions should be no heavier than 1 kg, while meat portions can be up to
2.5 kg.
• Smaller portions freeze through more quickly and the quality is thereby maintained better when
defrosting and preparing the food.
• It is important to seal food in airtight bags or containers before freezing to prevent it from losing
favor or dehydrating.
• Wrap the food, press out any air and seal it airtight.
Suitable wrapping materials:
• Plastic bags, cling-film, aluminium foil and freezer containers. These items are available from any
dealer.
