4. FOOD-STORAGE TIPS
4.1. FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator is the ideal storage location for ready
meals, fresh and preserved food, dairy products, fruit
and vegetables and beverage.
4.2. AIR VENTILATION
• The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator
compartment results in zones with different
temperatures. It is coldest directly above the fruits
and vegetables crisper and at the rear wall. It is
warmest at the top front of the compartment.
• Insufficient ventilation results in an increase
in energy consumption and reduction of the
refrigerating performance.
4.3. HOW TO STORE FRESH FOOD AND
BEVERAGE
• Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum and glass
containers and cling film to wrap foods.
• Always use closed containers for liquids and for
food that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor
transfer or cover them.
• Foods which give off a large amount ethylene
gas and those that are sensitive to this gas, such
as fruit, vegetables and salad, should always be
separated or wrapped so as not to reduce the
storage life; for example do not store tomatoes
together with kiwi fruits or cabbage.
• Do not store food too close together to enable
sufficient air circulation.
• To avoid bottles falling over, you can use the bottle
holder (available on selected models).
• If you have a little quantity of food to store in the
refrigerator, we recommend to use the shelves
above the crisper for fruits and vegetables since this
is the coolest area of the compartment.
4.4. WERE TO STORE FRESH FOOD AND
BEVERAGE
• On the fridge shelves: ready meals, tropical fruits,
cheeses, deli.
• In the coldest area (the one above the fruits and
vegetables crisper): meat, fish, cold cuts, cakes
• In the fruits and vegetables crisper: fruits, salad,
vegetables.
• In the door: butter, jams, sauces, pickles, cans,
bottles, beverage cartons, eggs.
EXAMPLES OF FOOD ARRANGEMENT
4.5. FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The freezer is the ideal storage location for store frozen
food, make ice cubes and freeze fresh food in the
freezer compartment.
The maximum number of kilograms of fresh food that
can be frozen within a 24-hour period is indicated on
the rating plate (…kg/24h).
If you have a little quantity of food to store in the
freezer, we recommend to use the coldest areas of
your freezer compartment, corresponding to the upper
or the middle area, depending on your model (see
the product sheet to know which is the area where is
suggested to freeze fresh food).
