INSTRUCTIONS FOR FOOD STORAGE

Set the temperature of the fresh food storage compartment between 2°C- 8°C, and store the foods that

are intended for short-term storage, or to be eaten at any time in the fresh food compartment.

Position different food in different compartments according to be below table

Refrigerator compartment

Type of food

Door or balconies of fridge

compartment

• Foods with natural preservatives, such as jams, juices,

drinks, condiments.

• Do not store perishable foods

Crisper drawers (salad drawer)

• Fruits, herbs and vegetables should be placed

separately in the crisper bin

• Do not store bananas, onions, potatoes, garlic in the

• Top tray for ice cream, frozen fruit, frozen baked

goods.

• It’s suggested to set the temperature at 4°C in the fridge compartment, and, whether

possible, at -18°C in the freezer compartment.

• For most food categories, the longest storage time in the fridge compartment is achieved

with colder temperatures. Since some particular products (as fresh fruits and vegetables)

may be damaged with colder temperatures, it is suggested to keep them in the crisper

drawers, whenever present. If not present, maintain an average setting of the thermostat.

• For frozen food, refer to the storage time written on the food packaging. This storage time is

achieved whenever the setting respects the reference temperatures of the compartment

(one-star -6°C, two stars -12°C, three stars -18°)
