Correct storage

For physical reasons, the refrigerator

compartment has different temperature

zones. The coldest zone is on the lowest

storage shelf immediately above the

fruit and vegetable drawers. Warmer

zones are the upper storage shelves and

door racks. The arrangement (see fig.)

indicates where different types of food

are best stored to make the most of

temperature variations.

For instance, the shelf immediately

above the fruit and vegetable drawers

should be 5 °C for safe storage of meat

and fish products. In order to check that

the appliance is at 5 °C on the lowest

shelf you can carry out the following

test yourself:

0 1. Place a cup of water in the centre of the

said shelf with a thermometer inside.

2. Leave the fridge door closed overnight and check the temperature first

thing in the morning.

3. At this point the temperature should read no more than 5 °C; if it does,

you need to adjust the temperature regulator to a colder setting.

Tip: Food stored in the refrigerator compartment should always be

covered or packed so that they do not dry out, lose their flavour, or

transfer their flavour to any other refrigerated food. The following are

suitable for packing:

– polyethylene bags;

– plastic containers with lids;

– special plastic covers with rubber retainers;

– aluminium foil.

To obtain the best performance from your refrigerator/freezer:

• Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids.

• Do not store food uncovered.

• Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your

freezer as short as possible.

• Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate

around each item.
