5.5 Freezing fresh food

• Wrap the food or place them in a covered container before putting them in the refrigerator.
• Hot food and beverages must cool down to room temperature before putting them in the refrigerator.
• The food that you want to freeze must be fresh and in good quality.
• Pack the food in an airtight manner to prevent them from drying even if they are going to be stored for a short time.
• Materials to be used for packaging must be tear-proof and resistant to cold, humidity, oils and acids and they must also be airtight. All packaging must be completely sealed.
• Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be re-frozen.
• Do not freeze excessively large quantities of food at one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
• Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the cooling system to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid.

Operating the product

5.14 Humidity controlled crisper

Humidity levels of the vegetables and fruit are kept under control with the feature of humidity-controlled crisper and the food is ensured to stay fresh longer.

We recommend you to place the leafy vegetables such as lettuce, spinach and the vegetables which are sensitive to humidity loss, in a horizontal manner as much as possible inside the crisper, not on their roots in a vertical position.

While the vegetables are being placed, individual weights of the vegetables should be taken into consideration. Heavy and hard vegetables should be put at the bottom of the crisper and the lightweight and soft vegetables should be placed on top.

Never leave vegetables inside the crisper in their bags. This will cause them to decompose prematurely. If you wish to keep vegetables separate, use perforated paper bags or similar materials to do so. Certain fruits such as pears, apricots, peaches or apples generate high levels of ethylene gas. Do not place them with other fruits and vegetables which do not, as this will cause them to decompose faster.

5.15 Ice container

The ice container is used to collect ice produced by the ice maker. Do not put water in it to make ice as it may break. The ice container is not used for storing foods.

The ice machine may drop ice when the ice container is opened.
