ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Cooling Compartment
• To prevent humidity and odour forming, the
food should be placed in the refrigerator in
closed or covered containers.
• Hot foods and drinks should be cooled to
room temperatures before being placed in the
refrigerator.
• Please do not place packaged food and
containers against the lamp or cover of the
cooling compartment.
• Fruits and vegetables may be placed directly
in the vegetable holder without being
wrapped separately.
• Some recommendations have been
specified below for the placement and
storage of your food in the cooling
compartment.
NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not
be stored in the refrigerator. Meat should never
be refrozen after it is thawed.
The Deep Freeze Compartment
• Use the deep freeze compartment of your
refrigerator for storing the frozen food for a
long time and for producing ice.
• To get maximum capacity from your freezer
compartment, please just use the glass
shelves for upper and middle section. For
bottom section, please use lower basket.
• Place the food you would like to freeze
initially in the upper shelf of the deep freeze
section . You may place your food next to the
other frozen foods after they are frozen (for at
least 24 hours).
• It is recommended to keep thermostat set at
level 5.
• It is recommended that the food which is
being newly frozen be kept separate from the
already frozen food.
• Do not refreeze the frozen food once it is
thawed. It may pose a danger to your health
• Do not place hot meals in your deep freeze
until they cool down. You could cause the
other food frozen beforehand in the deep
freeze compartment to become spoiled.
• As you buy frozen food, make sure it was
frozen under appropriate conditions and that
the packaging is not torn.
• While storing frozen food, the storage
conditions on the package should be
observed. If there are no instructions, the food
has to be consumed in the shortest period of
time.
• Frozen food has to be transported before it
thaws and it should be placed in the fast
freezing shelf as soon as possible. Please
do not use the baskets for fast freezing
purposes.
• The storage durations of frozen food depend
on the environmental temperatures, the
frequent opening and closing of the doors,
thermostat settings, food types, and the
period of time that has elapsed from when
the food was acquired to the time it entered
the freezer. Always abide by the instructions
on the package and never exceed the storage
duration.
• During power cuts, please do not open the
door of the deep freeze compartment. Your
refrigerator will preserve your frozen food in
the ambient temperature of 25°C for about 13
hours. This preservation time period
decreases the higher the ambient
temperatures are. During extended power
cuts, you should not refreeze your food and
should be disposed of accordingly.
