Storing Food In The Refrigerator Compartment - Ariston EDF 245 XL/1 Instructions Pour L'installation Et L'emploi

How to use the refrigerator compartment...
The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature in-
side the appliance
1 = less cold
5 = colder
It is recommended that a medium setting be used.
To increase the amount of space, optimize arrangement and
improve appearance, this appliance has a "cooling area"
located within the back panel of the refrigerator compart-
ment. When the appliance is operating, this panel may be
covered with frost or droplets of water depending on
whether the compressor is operating or not at a given time.

Storing Food in the Refrigerator Compartment

Food
Wrapped meat and cleaned fish
(use plastic wrap or pack in plastic bags)
Fresh cheese
Eggs
Butter, margarine
Cooked or precooked food
(placer in air-tight containers and when cool store
in refrigerator)
Sausages, salami, sandwich meats in general, fresh
pasta, custards,puddings, chocolates, cream
pastries, bread, dry pastries, red tomatoes
Bottled products, milk, drinks, yoghurt
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).
- Within the refrigerator compartment, the air circulates natu-
rally, with the colder air falling because it is heavier. This is
the reason why meat and cheeses should be placed above
the vegetable crisper.
- Please follow our instructions carefully on maximum stor-
age time: any food, even the freshest, will not remain edible
for any extended amount of time.
- Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not store any
longer than raw food.
- Do not place liquids in containers without covering them
because this will lead to an increase in the level of moisture
within the refrigerator, causing the formation of frost.
- Remember to cool hot food before storing otherwise the
temperature inside the appliance will increase, causing the
compressor to work harder and use more energy.
Do not be concerned about this! The refrigerator is operat-
ing normally.
If the thermostat knob is positioned on higher settings while
the refrigerator is heavily filled and the ambient tempera-
ture high, the appliance may run continuously, resulting in
the formation of frost on the back cooling area. This will
lead to an increase in energy consumption.
To avoid this situation, just turn the thermostat knob
to a lower setting so that the appliance defrosts auto-
matically.
Storage Time Location in the Refrigerator
On the shelf above the vegetable crisper
2 or 3 days
(which is the coldest area).
On the shelf above the vegetable crisper
3 or 4 days
(which is the coldest area).
1 month In special egg rack on door.
On any shelf.
3 or 4 days On any shelf.
3 or 4 days On any shelf.
On special door shelves.
In vegetable crisper.
- Be careful not to place containers (plastic or glass), food or
other objects in direct contact with the cooling area of the
back wall of the refrigerator. This could harm the food, in-
crease energy consumption and facilitate the formation of
condensate (on food, con-
tainers, etc.).
- The refrigerator compart-
ment is equipped with con-
venient, removable shelves
(Fig. 1) which can be ad-
justed for height using the
shelf guides. This allows you
to place even large contain-
ers and foodstuffs in the re-
frigerator.
