TIPS FOR STORING FOOD
FOOD STORAGE
- Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How you freeze and thaw food is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and taste. Do not store food that spoils easily at room temperature, such as bananas, pineapples, and cucumbers.
- Allow hot food to cool before storing it. Placing hot food in the refrigerator can raise the temperature and lead to increased energy consumption!
- When storing food, cover it with plastic wrap or place it in sealed containers. This prevents moisture loss and helps food retain its original taste and nutritional value. Do not block the air vents with food. Proper air circulation maintains even temperatures in the refrigerator. Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air into the refrigerator, causing temperature fluctuations.
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
Do not store carbonated drinks in the freezer compartment - they may burst when frozen. Do not refreeze thawed food. This causes loss of taste and nutritional value. When storing frozen food like ice cream or frozen vegetables, place them on the freezer shelves, not in the door or near the door. - The freezer compartment is marked with **
- The freezer compartment is designed for storing frozen food at -12°C to -18°C. - Food for freezing should be placed in the freezer for quick freezing.
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
- Avoid placing wet food on the shelves inside the refrigerator, as it may freeze and come into contact with cold air. To prevent this, it is better to store food in covered containers. It is recommended to store moist food (especially vegetables and fruits) in the vegetable drawer. If you need to store it on the refrigerator shelves, place it near the door, away from the cold air circulating in the refrigerator.
- Always check the food before storing. Vegetables and fruits should be sorted, and stored food should be sorted to prevent spoilage from spreading. When storing eggs in the egg tray, check that they are fresh and always store them in the correct position, which prolongs their freshness.
Important: Always unplug the appliance before cleaning to prevent electric shock. The appliance should be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild detergent, and the plastic surfaces should be wiped dry if allowed to become stained.
