Moving Your Appliance; Storing Food In The Fridge - THOMSON THLR 600 Manual De Instrucciones

The running time and temperature are affected by where the appliance is located, how often the door is
opened and the temperature of the room the appliance is located in.
When you use the appliance for the first time or after defrosting, adjust the control knob to the coldest
setting for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the middle setting.
MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
If the appliance is turned off for any reason, wait for 10 minutes before turning it back on. This will allow
the refrigeration system pressures to equalise before restarting.
• Turn off the appliance and unplug it from the mains socket. Remove all food. Also remove all mobile
parts (shelves, accessories, etc.) or fix them into the appliance to avoid any shock.
• Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing
upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on.
Your appliance uses isobutane (R600a) as a refrigerant. Although R600a is an environmentally friendly
and natural gas, it is explosive. Therefore you should be careful during shipment and installation to
prevent your appliance's cooler elements from being damaged. In the event of a leak caused by damage
to the cooler elements, move your appliance from open flame or heat sources and ventilate the room
where the appliance is located for a few minutes.
STORING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE
The fridge helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods.
Fresh food care
For best results:
• Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.
• Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating,
deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent odour
transfer.
• Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such as
butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours.
• Cool hot foods down before placing them in the fridge.
Dairy foods and eggs
• Most pre‐packed dairy foods have a recommended 'use by /best before/best
by/' date stamped on them. Store them in the fridge and use within the
recommended time.
• Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best stored in a
sealed container.
• Eggs can be stored in the fridge.
Red meat
• Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic
wrap or foil.
• Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any juice
lost from the raw meat from contaminating the cooked product.
