All written and visual descriptions in the accessories may vary according to the appliance model.

PART-3. FOOD PLACEMENT

Fridge Compartment

• To reduce humidity and consequent increase of frost never place liquids in unsealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporator and in time will require more frequent defrosting.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator compartment.
• Nothing should touch to refrigerator back wall as it will cause frost and the packages can stick here. Do not open the refrigerator door too frequently.
• Arrange the meat and cleaned fish (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) which you will use in 1-2 days.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into crisper without packing.

Food Storing time	Where to place in the fridge department
Vegetables and fruits 1 week	In the Crisper (without being wrapped)
Meat and fish 2 to 3 days	Covered with plastic folio and bags Or in a meat box (on the glass shelf)
Fresh cheese 3 to 4 days In the special door shelf
Butter and Margarine 1 week In the special door shelf
Bottled product, Milk and Yoghurt	Until the expiry date recommended by the producer In the special door shelf
Eggs 1 month In the egg shelf
Cooked food	All shelves

NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.

Freeze Compartment

• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen food for long periods of time and making ice cubes.
• Do not put fresh and warm food to the freezer door shelves to be frozen. Only use for storage of frozen food.
• Do not put fresh and warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the frozen food.
• While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in parts you will use in one time.

• For storing the frozen food; the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully and if no information is provided food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.

• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.

• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and the food which is wanted to freeze) more quickly because of the freezing room's greater freezing power. Fast freezing shelves are the middle drawers of the freezer compartment (see in page 38)
• Some recommendations have been specified on pages 30, 31 and 32 for the placement and storage of your food in the deep freeze compartment.

Tips for saving energy

1- Install the appliance in a coll, well ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2- Allow ward food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3- When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is thawing. So it causes energy saving. If the frozen food is put out, it causes wastage of energy.
4- When placing, drinks and slops they must be covered. Otherwise humidity increases at the appliance. Therefore the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and slops helps to save smell and taste.
5- When placing food and drinks, open the appliance door as briefly as possible.
6- Keep close the covers of any different temrepature compartment in the appliance (crisper, chiller ...etc).
7- Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
