Storing Fresh Foods

Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct

temperature and taking into account hygienic precautions will

substantially influence the quality of the food stored.

• Foods to be stored in the refrigerator should be properly

packed as to prevent mixing various moisture degrees and

odors (in polyethylene bags or sheet, aluminium foil, wax

paper, or stored in covered containers or bottles).

• Before storing food in the refrigerator, remove the excessive

packaging (like yoghurt in multi-package).

• Pack systematically and make sure that foodstuffs do not

touch each other (various odours may mix). Assure

adequate air circulation around packages.

• Never store inflammable, volatile or explosive substances.

• Beverages with high alcohol percentage shall be stored in

tightly sealed bottles in vertical position.

• Food should not touch the rear wall of the refrigerator!

• Foods should be cooled down before storing.

• Crispy and delicate foods should be stored in the coldest

parts of the refrigerator.

• Try not to open the door too often.

• Set the thermostat to the setting where lower temperatures

are reached. Set the thermostat gradually as to avoid

freezing of the foods.

Use a thermometer and measure the temperature in the

individual compartments. Place the thermostat in a glass

vessel filled with water. Temperature readings are most

reliable few hour after steady state is reached.

• Some organic solutions like volatile oils in lemon and orange

peel, acid in butter etc. can cause damages when in contact

with plastic surfaces or gaskets for longer period of time.

• Unpleasant odor inside the refrigerator is a sign that

something is wrong with foods or that your refrigerator needs

cleaning. Unpleasant odor can be eliminated or reduced by

washing the interior of the refrigerator with a mild solution of

water and vinegar. We also recommend using activated

carbon filters to clean the air or to neutralize odors.

• If you plan a longer journey, make sure to remove quickly

perishable articles of food out of the appliance before you

leave.

Storing Frozen Foods

Frozen foods can be stored in the low temperature

compartment. Storing time depends on the kind of food and on

the temperature inside the compartment.

Under -12°C Up to two weeks

Under -18°C Up to one month

Commercially Frozen Foods

The storage time and the recommended temperature for

storing commercially frozen foods are indicated on the

packaging. For storing and using consider the manufacturer's

instruction. When shopping, be careful and choose only

adequately packed foods provided with complete data and

stored in freezers where the temperature is not higher than -

18°C. Do not buy packages of food covered with frost layer.

This indicates that the package was thawed before at least

once. Be careful that packages don't start to thaw, as the

temperature raise reduces the quality of foods.

Defrosting Frozen Food

Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be used as soon as

possible. Cold air preserves the food but it does not destroy

microorganisms which rapidly activate after defrosting and

make foods perishable.

Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of foods,

especially of fruits, vegetables and ready-made meals.

Ice Making

(certain models only)

Recommended thermostat position for ice making is on the

middle setting. Fill two thirds of the ice tray with cold water or

any other liquid convenient for freezing. Insert the ice tray into

the guides or on the cooling plate. Time required for the ice to

form, largely depends on ambient temperature, thermostat

setting and on how often you open the door. It usually takes 2-

6 hours (depends on which model of refrigerator you have).

With smaller refrigerators we recommend you make a stock of

ice cubes (store them in a separate plastic box). The easiest

way to empty the ice tray is to turn the tray around, pour it with

cold water and slightly twist it (bend it).
