Instructions for food storage

Precautions for use

• The appliance might not operate consistently (if there is a possibility of defrosting or temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when running for an extended period of time below the cold limit of the temperature range for which the refrigerating appliance is designed
• The information of climate type of the appliance is provided on the rating plate.
• The internal temperature could be affected by such factors as, the location of the appliance, ambient temperature, and frequency of door being opened, etc., and if appropriate, the setting of any temperature control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors should be made.
• Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or the lowtemperature compartment, and some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold.

Food storage location
Due to the cold air circulation in the refrigerator, the temperature of each area in the refrigerator is different, so different kinds of food should be placed in different areas. The fresh food compartment is suitable for the storage of foods that do not require to be frozen, as well as cooked food, beer, eggs, some condiments that need cold preservation, milk, fruit juice, etc. The crisper box is suitable for the preservation of vegetables, fruits, etc. The freezer compartment is suitable for the storage of ice cream, frozen food and the foods to be preserved for a long period of time.
Use of the fresh food compartment
Set the temperature of the fresh food storage compartment between 2℃ & 8℃, and store the foods that are intended for short-term storage, or to be eaten at any time in the fresh food compartment.
Fridge shelf: When removing the shelf, lift it up first, and then pull it out; and when installing the shelf, place it into position before putting it down. Keep the shelf rear flange upward, to prevent foods from contact of fridge wall. When taking out or putting in the shelf, hold it firmly, and handle with care to avoid damage.
Crisper box: Pull out the crisper box for access to food. After using or cleaning the cover plate of the crisper box, be sure to put it back onto the crisper, so that the internal temperature of the crisper box will not be affected.

Use of the crisper humidity regulating rod (If appicable).
The humidity regulating rod of the crisper box is designed to maintain the humidity and freshness of the vegetables stored inside.
When the humidity regulating rod is slid to the right, with more holes exposed, lower humidity will be kept inside the crisper box.
When the humidity regulating rod is slid to the left, with less holes exposed, higher humidity will be kept inside the crisper box.
Cautions for food storage
Before foods are put in the refrigerator, it is advisable to seal them, to prevent waterevaporation. Keep fresh fruits and vegetables on one section, this will help to prevent taint of odor in other sections of the refrigerator.
Do not over crowd the refrigerator. Keep enough space between foods because if foods are too close, the cold air flow will be blocked, thus affecting the refrigeration effect. Do not store excessive or overweight foods, to avoid the shelf from being crushed. When storing the foods, keep a distance away from the inner wall; and do not place the water-rich foods too close to the fridge rear wall, as there will be a risk of them becoming frozen to the inner wall.

Categorised storage of foods
Foods should be stored by category, with the foods you eat every day placed in front of the shelf, so that the door open duration can be shortened and food spoilage due to expiration can be avoided.
Energy-saving tips: Allow hot food to cool down to the room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator. Put the frozen food in the fresh food compartment to thaw, using the low temperature of the frozen food to cool the fresh food, thus saving energy.
Use of the frozen food storage compartment The freezer temperature is controlled below -18º C, and it is advisable to store the food for long-term preservation in the freezer compartment, but the storage duration indicated on the food packaging should be adhered to.
The freezer drawers are used to store food that needs to be frozen. Fish and meat of large block size should be cut into small pieces and packed into fresh-keeping bags before they are evenly distributed inside the freezer drawers.

Fast freezing

1. Refer to the description about fast freezing function in the “Function” section.
2. Compared with the normal freezing, fast freezing enables food to pass through the maximum ice crystal formation zone at the fastest speed. Fast freezing can freeze the food water content into fine ice crystals, without damaging the cell membrane, so cell juice will not be lost when thawing, and the original freshness and nutrition of food can be maintained.
3. The fast-freezing function is designed to preserve nutrition of the frozen food, with the food is thoroughly frozen in the shortest time. Fast freezing consumes more energy than the normal freezing does.

Tips for Fridge/freezer storage

• Allow the hot foods to cool down to the room temperature before putting them in the freezer compartment.
• Do not put a glass container with liquid or the canned liquid that is sealed in the freezer compartment, to avoid it bursting due to volume expansion after the liquid becomes frozen.
• Divide foods into smaller portions for freezing.
• Before freezing foods, ensure packing/bag used should are dry, this avoids the packaging/bags sticking together frozen.
• To avoid contamination and odour transfer, foods should be packed and/or covered by suitable materials. Eg firm, tasteless, impervious to air and water, non-toxic and pollutionfree.

Moving your Fridge/Freezer

• Location
  Do not place your refrigerator/freezer near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Avoid it from direct sunlight in out-buildings or sun lounges.

• Leveling
  Make sure to level your refrigerator/freezer using the front leveling feet. If not level, the refrigerator/freezer door gasket and sealing performance will be affected, or it may lead to the operating failure of your refrigerator/freezer.
