Salad bin
This is the most humid part of the Fridge. Vegetables, fruit, fresh salad items eg. Unwashed whole
lettuce, whole tomatoes, radishes etc can be stored here.
WE RECOMMEND THAT ALL PRODUCE KEPT IN THE SALAD BIN IS WRAPPED.
NOTE：Always wrap and store raw meat, poultry and fish on the lowest shelf at the bottom of the
fridge. This will stop them dripping onto, or touching other foods. Do not store inflammable gasses
or liquids in the fridge.
Tips for shopping for frozen foods
Your Freezer is 4 star
When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be
able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star rating. This is usually
the period stated as "Best, Before", found on the front of the packaging.
Check the Fridge/Freezer temperature
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen foods. It
should show a temperature lower than -18℃.
Choose packs carefully
Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
Purchase frozen food last
Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
Keep frozen foods together
Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping, and on the journey home as this will help to
keep the food cooler.
Store food straight away
Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can be bought
from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
Thawing frozen food
For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added
directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan
and heated gently until thawed.
Freezing fresh foods, useful tips
Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities, it freezes faster,
takes less time to thaw and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.
Freezing fresh foods
First, estimate the amount of food you will be freezing. If you are freezing large amounts of fresh
food, remember to turn the control dial to Max. This will lower the temperature in the Freezer
(approx.-30℃), freezing your food quicker and helping to keep the goodness in. However, you
should do this sparingly to conserve energy.
