The following tips may help if you find that food you have stored does not
keep well (e.g. food becomes limp or wilts after only being stored for a short
time):
^Only use the appliance for storing fresh food. The condition of the food when it
is first placed in the appliance is an important factor in determining how long it
stays fresh.
^Clean food before placing it in the PerfectFresh zone.

^Do not store food which is sensitive to cold...

Moving the shelves
The shelves can be adjusted according
to the height of the food.
^Raise the shelf, and pull it forwards
slightly until the notch at the side is in
line with the shelf support. It can then
be raised or lowered to the required
level.
The raised edge at the back must face
upwards to prevent food from touching
the back of the appliance and freezing
to it.
Stoppers prevent the shelves from
being dislodged by mistake.

other food cold),

observe food hygiene rules when
defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid
from defrosted poultry. Pour it away
and wash the container it was in, the
sink and your hands. Danger of

Cool pack
The cool pack prevents the
temperature in the freezer rising too
quickly in the event of a power cut.

the freezer section, directly on top of
the food. The cool pack will be at its
most effective after it has been in the
freezer for approx. 24 hours.

pack directly on top of the frozen food
in the top drawer so that the food will
be kept cold for as long as possible.
