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.
•
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 case
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.
