ENGLISH
-
Effervescent or carbonated drinks should not be stored in the freezer or the refrigerator.
It is not recommended to store liquids in glass containers or soft drink cans in the freezer
compartment.
Food location
-
Due to the circulation of cold air in the refrigerator, the temperature in each zone is
different, so food must be placed in different zones.
-
The refrigerator compartment is suitable to store food that does not need to be frozen,
cooked food, beer, eggs, some seasonings that need to be kept cold, milk, fruit juice, etc.
The crisper drawer is the best place to store fruit and vegetables.
-
The freezer compartment is suitable to store ice cream, frozen foods, and foods that need
to be kept for a long time.
Shelves
To remove the shelves, first lift them up and then pull them out; to put them back, put them into
their position before lowering them. (For the two-section shelf, push the first section towards
the rear end and pull the second section out). Keep the rear edge of the shelf facing upwards to
prevent food from coming into contact with the wall. When removing and fitting shelves, hold
them firmly and handle them carefully to avoid damage.
Crisper drawer
Pull out the crisper drawer to access the food. After using or cleaning the bottom shelf of the
refrigerator (the drawer cover), put it back in place so that the internal temperature of the
drawer is not affected.
Tips on buying frozen food
-
When buying frozen food, pay attention to the storage instructions on the package. You
may store each frozen food for the period indicated in the star rating. This is usually the
period indicated as "best before" on the front of the package.
-
Make sure that the packaging of frozen food is in perfect condition.
-
Do not buy frozen foods unless you can freeze them immediately. Special insulated bags
are available in most supermarkets and department stores. In them, frozen food is kept
cold for a longer period of time.
-
Some foods do not require defrosting before cooking. Vegetables and pasta can be added
directly to boiling water or steamed. Frozen sauces and soups can be placed in a pan and
heated gently until thawed.
-
Use quality foods and alter them as little as possible. When food is frozen in small
quantities, it takes less time to freeze and thaw.
-
Calculate the amount of food to be frozen. When freezing large quantities of fresh food, set
the temperature knob to a lower freezing temperature. This way food can be frozen quickly
maintaining its freshness.
