    Hints for fresh food refrigeration

  • Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator, the internal temperature will increase resulting in the compressor having to work harder and will consume more energy.

  • Do cover or wrap the food. particularly if it has a strong flavor.

  • Place food properly so that air can circulate freely around it. Hints for freezing

  • When first starting-up or after a period out of use, let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings before putting food in the compartment.

  • Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene food wraps which are airtight.

  • Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food which is already frozen to avoid temperature rise of the latter.

  • Iced products, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment. will probably cause frost burns to the skin.

  • It is recommended to label and date each frozen package in order to keep track of the storage time. Hints for the storage of frozen food
