Electrolux ERZ28801 - Helpful Hints and Tips

• Pay attention to the freshness of the
food, especially on the expiry date. Quali-
ty and freshness influence the storage
time.
• The whole storage cycle time will depend
on the preservation conditions made pri-
or to the final storage in the fridge.
• Food, fruit or vegetables should always
be packed or wrapped up before stor-
age.
• Animal food always store packed and
dry.
• Food rich in proteins will go bad quicker.
This means seafood will spoil before fish
which in turn will spoil before meat. While
storing food in a NaturaFresh 0°C com-
partment storage time for that kind of
food can be increased by up to three
times as well without loss on quality.
• All food stored in a NaturaFresh 0°C
compartment should be taken out of the
drawers roughly 15-30 min before con-
sumption, particularly fruit and vegetables
to be consumed without any additional
cooking process. Allowing fruit and vege-
tables to return to room temperature will
improve the texture and flavour.
Drawer
The wire shelves inside the drawers permit
that air can circulate freely and consequent-
ly a better conservation of foods.
The compartment has stops to prevent the
drawers from falling out when fully exten-
ded.
To remove the drawers (e.g. for cleaning
purposes), pull them out as far as the
stops, lift and extract.. .
HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave
it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the Temperature Regulator is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run continu-
ously, causing frost or ice on the evapo-
rator. If this happens, set the Tempera-
ture Regulator toward warmer settings to
allow automatic defrosting and so a sav-
ing in electricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it
has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the veg-
etable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two
days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these
should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thor-
oughly cleaned and placed in the special
drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed
in special airtight containers or wrapped in
