STORING AND FREEZING FOOD
Avoid contamination of food
To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following instructions:
•
Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
•
Regularly clean surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage
systems.
•
Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact
with or drip onto other food.
•
If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and
leave the door open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.
Storing fresh food in the refrigerator
Important recommendations for storing fresh food
•
To ensure the quality of fresh food, it is important that:
▷
the food is well-packaged;
▷
the appliance is at the correct temperature;
the appliance is clean.
▷
•
Take good note of the use-by date stated on the food packaging.
•
Put food in the refrigerator in sealed containers or in suitable packaging. This will prevent
the food from picking up or spreading odours and will keep it dry.
•
If droplets form on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer, open the vent and dry off the
shelf. This will reduce the humidity.
•
Do not store flammable, unstable or explosive materials in the refrigerator.
•
Store bottles that have been opened upright and close them tightly.
•
Some organic solutions, such as essential oils, in the skin of lemons and oranges, and
butyric acid, that come into long-term contact with plastics can eat into the material and
cause premature ageing.
•
A disagreeable odour is an indication that the appliance is not clean or that it contains food
that has spoiled (see the chapter 'Maintenance').
•
Take perishable foods out of the refrigerator when you will be away from home for a longer
time.
