Fruits and legumes
What Not to Store in the Refrigerator
Garlic (transmits odour), onions and leeks.
Bananas (they will turn black).
Citrus fruits.
Potatoes and root vegetables (store in dark, dry places).
- Air in the refrigerator circulates naturally so that colder,
heavier air tends to descend towards the bottom. This is why
meat and fish should be stored just above the crisper.
Energy Saving Tips
- Install the Appliance Correctly
This means that the appliance should be installed away from
heat sources or direct sunlight in a well ventilated room.
THE ACTUAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF THE APPLIANCE
DEPENDS ON THE WAY THE SAME IS USED AND ON ITS
LOCATION. The consumption tests were performed in 560mm
deep column units, the most common installation setting for
this appliance.
- Correct Temperature Settings
Set the refrigerator temperature knob to one of the middle
settings. Very cold temperature settings will not only consume
a great deal of energy but will neither improve nor lengthen
the storage life of the food. Excessively cold temperatures
may ruin vegetables, cold cuts and cheese.
- Do Not Overfill Your Appliance
Remember that proper storage of food requires good air cir-

- Remember to follow our instructions on the storage life of
foods: If not stored correctly, even the freshest food will
deteriorate quite quickly.
- Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not keep longer
than fresh food.
- Do not store liquids in unsealed containers since this will
increase the humidity and lead to the formation of frost in
the refrigerator.
culation. Overfilling your appliance will hamper proper air
circulation and overwork the compressor.
- Keep the Door Closed
Open the refrigerator only when necessary; remember that
every time you open the door most of the cold air will be
lost. To bring the temperature back to the proper level, the
motor must run for a considerable amount of time, consuming
a substantial amount of energy.
- Check the Seal on the Door
Keep the seal clean and soft so that it fits tightly against the
door to ensure that no cold air is lost.
- Never Put Food in the Refrigeror while Still Hot
A container of hot food in the refrigerator will increase the
temperature significantly; allow food to cool to room tem-
perature before storing.
