Freezing fresh food
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most
hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not improve the food�
Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs into the freezer�
Prior to freezing the food, food should always be covered tightly
with foil, plastic film, placed in plastic bags or stored in airtight
containers� This will prevent food from dehydrating and to pre-
vent any strong odors of some foods transferring to milder ones�
To freeze raw meat, wrap in plastic bags or in airtight containers
and place on the lowest shelf to avoid cross contamination�
GB
Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods�
Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in
the crisper�
Milk and other liquids should be sealed with lids and placed in
the bottle shelf in the door�
NOTE: The ambient temperature of the freshly stored food and
how often the door is opened affect the temperature in the
refrigerator� If required, change the thermostat temperature set-
tings�
Storing frozen food
All frozen food you purchase should be placed in the freezer
as soon as possible to avoid them from defrosting and spoiling�
All storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen
food by the manufacturer should always be followed�
When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting,
set the thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least
15
set the thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least
2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust it
to the normal position�
Energy-saving tips
Install the fridge or freezer in a cool place out of direct sunlight
and away from cookers, heaters, dishwashers or any hot air
emit-ting items�
Do not set the fridge and freezer temperatures lower than neces-
sary� Set the internal temperature within the correct range e�g�
adjust the thermostat at middle position for 4°C in the fridge
compartment and -18°C in the freezer respectively�
Let pre-cooked foods cool down before placing them in the fridge
or freezer� This will prevent the internal temperature of the fridge
from rising�
Keep your fridge full, but not over crowded, this helps reduce
"cold" air loss� Meanwhile, avoid overloading the fridge or freezer�
Try to leave about 20% free space for air circulation�
To prevent cold air escaping, limit the frequency of opening door�
When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your
fridge before opening the door� Only open the door to put food in
or take it out�
Make sure the door seal is clean and in good condition� It should
hold a piece of paper tightly in place when shut�
Defrost regularly or when ice is more than 5 mm thick� Thick ice
covering the inner sides significantly increases energy use�
The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in
the device description is optimal for efficient energy savings�
Changing the combination proposition could alter the efficiency�
