The following guidelines and recommendations are suggested to obtain the best

results and storage hygiene.

1. The fridge compartment is for the short term storage of fresh food and drinks.

2. The freezer compartment is

(4 star) rated and is suitable for the freezing

of fresh food and storage of pre frozen food. The recommendation for

storage as stated on the food packaging should be observed at all times.

3. Cooked dishes must be stored in airtight covered containers.

4. Fresh wrapped produce can be placed on the shelf. Fresh fruit and

vegetables should be cleaned and stored in the crisper bins.

5. Bottles can be placed in the door section.

6. To store raw meat, wrap in polythene bags and place in the Chiller Compartment.

Do not allow such items to come into contact with cooked food to avoid

contamination. For safety, only store raw meat for two to three days.

7. Keep the food packed wrapped or covered. Allow hot food and beverages to

cool before placing them in the fridge. Do not store explosive substances. High

proof alcohol must be stored upright in sealed containers. Left over canned

food should not be stored in the can.

8. Fizzy drinks should not be frozen and products such as flavoured water ices,

ice lollies should not be consumed too cold.

9. Some fruit and vegetables suffer damage if kept at temperatures near 0°C for

example in the Chiller Compartment.

Therefore wrap pineapples, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes and similar produce

in polythene bags and never place them in the chiller compartment.

10. Place chilled cooked food and similar food in the Chiller Compartment.

11. Shelves, racks, crisper bins, drawers, flaps, bottle grippers are all removable.

12. Do not leave frozen food at room temperature to thaw; the best way to defrost

food is to put it in the fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid defrosting

food or food juices drip onto other food.

13. For hygiene reasons, always wrap food using a suitable packaging material

before storing in your appliance to avoid contact with the appliance surface.
