DO'S AND DON'TS
Don't-Store bananas in your fridge compartment.
Don't-Store melon in your fridge. It can be chilled for short periods as long as it is
wrapped to prevent it flavouring other food.
Don't-Cover the shelves with any protective materials which may obstruct air
circulation.
Don't-Store poisonous or any dangerous substances in your appliance. It has been
designed for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.
Don't-Consume food which has been stored for an excessive length of time.
Don't-Store cooked and fresh food together in the same container. They should be
packaged and stored separately.
Don't-Let defrosting food or food juices drip onto food.
Don't-Leave the door open for long periods, as this will make the appliance more
costly to run and cause excessive ice formation.
Don't-Use sharp edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the ice.
Don't-Put hot food into the appliance. Let it cool down first.
Don't-Put liquid-filled bottles or sealed cans containing carbonated liquids into the
freezer, as they may burst.
Don't-Exceed the maximum freezing loads (4 kg in any 24 hours) when freezing fresh
food.
Don't-Give children ice-cream and water ices direct from the freezer. The low
temperature may cause 'freezer burns' on lips.
Don't-Freeze fizzy drinks.
Don't-Try to keep frozen food which has thawed; it should be eaten within 24 hours or
cooked and refrozen.
Don't-Remove items from the freezer with wet hands.
Don't- Close the freezer door before placing the compartment cover in its place.
Don't- Leave frozen food at room temperature to thaw; the best way to defrost food is
to put it in the fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid defrosting food or food
juices drip onto other food.
