FRIDGE COMPARTMENT

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.

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.

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.

To avoid bottles falling over, you can use the bottle holder (available on selected models).

Do not store food too close together to enable sufficient air circulation.

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 middle area.
