  • You can keep the foods fresh for months (in a freezer at or below temperatures of -18 °C).
  • The food products to be frozen must not contact the already-frozen food inside to avoid partial defrosting.
  • Boil the vegetables and filter the water to extend the frozen storage time. Place the food in air-tight packages after filtering and place in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes, and similar food items should not be frozen.
  • In case these foods are frozen, only Nutritional values and eating qualities will be negatively affected. A rotting that would threaten human health is not in question.

Placing the food

  • Freezer compartment shelves: Different frozen foods like meat, fish, ice cream, vegetables, etc.
  • Cooler compartment shelves: Food items inside pots, capped plates,s and capped cases, eggs (in closed case)
  • Cooler compartment door shelves: Small and packaged food or beverages
  • Crisper: Vegetables and fruits
  • Fresh food compartment: Delicatessen (breakfast food, meat products to be consumed in a short time)

Storing food in the cooler compartment

  • Compartment temperatures rise prominently if the compartment door is opened and closed frequently and kept open for a long time, this can reduce the life span of the food and cause the food to spoil.
  • In order not to cause odor and taste changes, the food should be stored in closed containers.
  • Do not store too much food in your refrigerator.
  • To achieve better and homogeneous cooling, place the food separately in a way that cold air can wander through them.
  • Provide airflow by leaving a space between the food and the internal wall. If you lean the food against the rear wall, the food may freeze.
  • Bring cooked hot meals to room temperature before placing them in the refrigerator.
  • Then, you can place the tepid meal on the lower shelves of your refrigerator.
  • Do not place the tepid meals close to the foods that may easily spoil.
  • Defrost your frozen food in the fresh food compartment. Thereby, you can cool fresh food compartments by using frozen food and save energy.
  • Storing unripe tropical fruits (mango, melon varieties, papaya, banana, pineapple) in the refrigerator may speed up the ripening process. This is not recommended because it will cause shorter storage time.
  • You should store onions, garlic, gingers, and other root vegetables in dark and cold room conditions, not in the refrigerator.
  • If you notice that food has spoiled in the refrigerator, throw away that food and clean the accessories that have come into contact with it.
  • To cool meals like soups and stews, which are cooked in large pots, quickly, you can put them in the refrigerator by separating them into shallow containers.
  • Do not place unpackaged food close to eggs.
  • Keep the fruits and vegetables separately and store each variety together (for example; apples with apples, carrots with carrots).
  • Take green vegetables out of the plastic bag and place them in the refrigerator after wrapping them in a paper towel or drying cloth. If you wash this type of food before placing it in the refrigerator, remember to dry it.
  • You can both create a damp environment and provide an airflow by keeping fruits and vegetables, which are prone to drying, in perforated or unsealed plastic bags.
  • Except in the cases where extreme circumstances are available in the environment if your product (on the recommended set values table) is set to the specified set values, the food keeps its freshness for a longer time both in the fresh product compartment and freezer compartment.
  • Store different food in different places according to their properties.
