HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing pro-
cess, here are some important hints:
the maximum quanti ty of food which can be
frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rati ng plate;
the freezing process takes 24 hours. No fur-
ther food to be frozen should be added during
this period;
only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned, foodstuff s;
prepare food in small porti ons to enable it
to be rapidly and completely frozen and to
make it possible subsequently to thaw only
the quanti ty required;
wrap up the food in aluminium foil or poly-
thene and make sure that the packages are
airti ght;
do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch
food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a
rise in temperature of the latt er;
lean foods store bett er and longer than fatt y
ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
water ices, if consumed immediately aft er
removal from the freezer compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
it is advisable to show the freezing in date on
each individual pack to enable you removal
from the freezer compartment, can possibly
cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
it is advisable to show the freezing in date on
each individual pack to enable you to keep tab
of the storage ti me.
Hints for storage of frozen food

Hints for refrigerati on
Useful hints:
Make (all types): wrap in polythene bags and
place on the glass shelves above the vege-
table drawer.
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 thor-
oughly cleaned and placed in the special draw-
er(s) provided.
Butt er and cheese: these should be placed
in special airti ght containers or wrapped in
aluminum foil or polythene bags to exclude
as much air as possible.
Milk bott le: these should have a cap and should
be stored in the balconies on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the fridge.
FRESH ZONE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Temperature of the fresh can be adjusted
according to the type of storage food.
Push the knob upward from the bott om, tem-
perature in the fresh zone will be gradually
decreased.
When the knob is placed at the "CRISPER"
positi on, the fresh zone can be functi oned
as a crisper zone and maintain the appropri-
ate temperature and humidity for fruits and
vegetable.
When the knob is placed at the "CHILLER"
positi on, it is suitable for short-term stor-
age of fi sh or other fresh food. The food will
keep fresh but not frozen which
makes it the best choice for
storing fresh food.
Tips: When you choose
"CHILLER" functi on, it is recom-
mended to set the refrigerator
temperature below 4°C and
preserved lead-ti me no more
than 3 days, in order to keep
the best freshness.
HUMIDITY ADJUSTMENT
FOR CRISPER ZONE
When the knob is placed at the
"HIGH" positi on, the crisper hu-
midity is high, which is suitable
for vegetable.
When the key is placed at the
"LOW" positi on, humidity in
the crisper is lower with is suitable for fruits.
