How to remove glass shelves
When removing the glass shelf, please press the movable pin under the shelf with both hands and push inward at the same time. Then the glass shelf will be removed. (A: cabinet liner; B: glass shelve)

Storing food in the refrigerator compartment
The fridge compartment helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods. Fresh food care for best results:

• Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.
• Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent odour transfer. Vegetables and fruit need not be wrapped if they are stored in the vegetable container of the fridge compartment.
• Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such as butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours.
• Cool hot foods down before placing them in the fridge compartment.

Dairy foods and eggs

• Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended ‘use by /best before/best by/’ date stamped on them. Store them in the fridge compartment and use within the recommended time.
• Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best stored in a sealed container.
• Eggs should be stored in the fridge compartment.

Red meat

• Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil.
• Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any juice lost from the raw meat from contaminating the cooked product.

Poultry

• Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside and out with cold running water, dried and placed on a plate. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil.
• Poultry pieces should also be stored this way. Whole poultry should never be stuffed until just before cooking, otherwise food poisoning may result.

Fish and seafood

• Whole fish and fillets should be used on the day of purchase. Until required, refrigerate on a plate loosely covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil.
• If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to select very fresh fish. Whole fish should be rinsed in cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then patted dry with paper towels. Place whole fish or fillets in a sealed plastic bag.
• Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within 1-2 days.

Precooked foods and leftovers

• These should be stored in suitable covered containers so that the food will not dry out.
• Keep for only 1-2 days.
• Reheat leftovers only once and until steaming hot.

Vegetable container

• The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables.
• Take care not to store the following at temperatures of less than 7°C for long periods: Citrus fruit, melons, pineapple, papaya, passion fruit, cucumber, peppers, tomatoes.
• Undesirable changes will occur at low temperatures such as softening of the flesh, browning and/or accelerated decaying.
• Do not refrigerate avocados (until they are ripe), bananas and mangoes.

Freezing and storing food in the freezer compartment

• To store deep-frozen food.
• To make ice cubes.
• To freeze food.

Note: Ensure that the freezer compartment door has been closed properly.

Purchasing frozen food

• Packaging must not be damaged.
• Use by the ‘use by /best before/best by/’ date.
• If possible, transport deep-frozen food in an insulated bag and place quickly in the freezer compartment.

Storing frozen food
Store at -18°C or colder. Avoid opening the freezer compartment door unnecessarily.

Freezing fresh food
Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
To retain the best possible nutritional value, flavor and color, vegetables should be blanched before freezing.
Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and asparagus do not require blanching.
Note: Keep food to be frozen away from food which is already frozen.

The following foods are suitable for freezing:
Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbs, eggs without shells, dairy products such as cheese and butter, ready meals and leftovers such as soups, stews, cooked meat and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and desserts.

The following foods are not suitable for freezing:
Types of vegetables, which are usually consumed raw, such as lettuce or radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, whole apples, pears and peaches, hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, and mayonnaise.

Packing frozen food
To prevent food from losing its flavor or drying out, place food in airtight packaging.

1. Place food in packaging.
2. Remove air.
3. Seal the wrapping.
4. Label packaging with contents and dates of freezing.

Suitable packaging:
Plastic film, tubular film made of polyethylene, aluminum foil. These products are available from specialist outlets.

Recommended storage times of frozen food in the freezer compartment
These times vary depending on the type of food. The food that you freeze can be preserved from 1 to 12 months (minimum at -18°C).

Food                                                Storage time
Bacon, casseroles, milk 1 month
Bread, ice cream, sausages, pies, prepared shellfish, oily fish 2 months
Non-oily fish, shellfish, pizza, scones and muffins 3 months

Suggested sections of freezer chamber for various foods and variety name:

• Upper door rack: small frozen articles;
• Glass shelves: frozen foods, such as fishes, meats and ice creams;
• Drawer: packaged frozen foods, etc.;

Never forget:

• When you freeze fresh foods with a ‘use by /best before/best by/’ date, you must freeze them before this date expires.
• Check that the food was not already frozen. Indeed, frozen food that has thawed completely must not be re-frozen.
• Once defrosted, food should be consumed quickly.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
We recommend that you follow the tips below to save energy.

• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods in order to conserve energy.
• Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (Direct sunlight, electric oven or cooker etc.)
• Don’t set the temperature colder than necessary.
• Don’t store warm food or evaporating liquid in the appliance.
• Place the appliance in a well ventilated, humidity free room. Please refer to Installing your new appliance chapter.
• Foods cannot block the air outlet; otherwise, abnormal air circulation will be caused.
• Make sure that the temperature sensor is not covered or blocked by foods, and keep proper distance with foods.

Hints for refrigerator

• Meat (All Types) Wrap in polythene food: wrap and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. Always follow food storage times and use by dates suggested by manufacturers.
• Cooked food, cold dishes, etc.: They should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: They should be stored in the special drawer provided.
• Butter and cheese: Should be wrapped in airtight foil or plastic film wrap.
• Milk bottles: Should have a lid and be stored in the door racks.

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.
• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
• 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.
• Do not put bottled or canned foods into the freezer chamber to prevent frost cracking.
• Glass bottles or glass containers shall not be placed into the freezer chamber or at the air outlet of refrigerating chamber duct; otherwise, they may explode.
• Do not put too many fresh foods into the freezer chamber once, preferably not exceeding the freezing capacity value of refrigerator.

Caution: The food especially the oily food which stored in refrigerator, please avoid the direct contact with the liner. When the interior stained with oil or oily food soup stains, it should be cleaned immediately to avoid the long contact with the liner which may lead to the liner corrosion and cracking.
