4.3 DAILY USE
Cooling food
•
Always refer to the expiry date of the products to know how long they can be stored.
•
Pack food in resealable plastic bags, especially if it has a strong taste, and place on the glass shelves above the
crisper drawer. Store food only one or at most two days in this way.
•
Store raw meat and fish in appropriate food containers in the refrigerator so that it does not leak or come into
contact with other foods.
•
Do not place hot food or hot plastic parts in the appliance. Make sure it has cooled to room temperature before
putting it in the appliance.
•
Cooked food that has cooled sufficiently must be covered and can then be placed on any shelf.
•
Do not place foods containing a lot of water too close to the back wall of the refrigerator to prevent them from
freezing to the inner wall.
•
It is best to clean and dry food before storing it in the appliance. It is advisable to store food in sealed
packaging in the appliance. This prevents evaporation of water, which keeps fruit and vegetables fresh and
also prevents odours.
Cooling food
•
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for a long time.
•
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is for this refrigerator: 12 kg.
•
The freezing process takes 24 hours. Do not add any other food to freeze during this period.
•
Only freeze fresh and thoroughly cleaned foods.
•
Prepare the food in small portions so that it is soon completely frozen and can then be thawed in the desired
amount.
•
Pack the food in aluminium foil or freezer bags and make sure the packets are airtight.
•
Do not allow fresh, non-frozen food to come into contact with food that has already been frozen, and prevent
the temperature of the food that has already been frozen from rising.
•
Lean foods are better and more durable than fatty foods; salt shortens the shelf life of food.
•
Ice lollies, if eaten directly from the freezer, can cause frostbite.
•
It is advisable to indicate the freezing date on each individual package in order to keep track of the shelf life.
•
It is advisable to keep the time between buying the food and putting it in the freezer as short as possible.
Storing frozen food
•
On first use or after a long period of downtime. Run the appliance for at least two hours at the higher
positions before putting products in the freezer compartment. The most efficient use of energy is ensured in the
configuration with the drawers in the lower part of the appliance and with the shelves evenly distributed. The
position of the door trays does not affect energy consumption.
ATTENTION!
•
The manufacturer's storage recommendations must be strictly followed. Please refer to the respective instructions.
•
Do not keep the door open for too long; this can cause a sharp increase in temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
•
Frozen food may not be refrozen after thawing.
•
In the case of unexpected thawing, for example if a power failure lasts longer than the value specified in the
technical properties under "rise time", the thawed food must be consumed quickly or prepared immediately and
then frozen again (after preparation).
Saving energy
•
Do not open the door or leave it open more often than necessary.
•
Do not set the temperature too high to save energy unless the characteristics of the food require it.
•
If the ambient temperature is high, the temperature control is set to a low temperature and the appliance is
fully filled, the compressor can be on continuously, causing ice to form on the evaporator. In this case, set the
temperature control to a higher temperature to defrost the evaporator and thus save energy.
•
Ensure proper ventilation.
•
Do not cover the vents or holes.
•
Place frozen food in the fresh food compartment to defrost: the low temperature of the frozen food helps to cool
the fresh food and thus saves energy.
•
Replace the door gasket in good time to prevent poor door closing.
