Food which is not suitable for
storage in the refrigerator
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration
at temperatures below 5°C as some
food is sensitive to cold. The appear‐
ance, consistency, taste and / or the vi‐
tamin content of certain types of food
can be adversely affected by being
stored in too cold a place.
Food which does not tolerate cold tem‐
peratures includes:
– Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangoes, melons,
papayas, passion fruit, citrus fruits
(such as lemons, oranges, mandar‐
ins, grapefruit),
– Fruit which is not yet ripe
– Aubergines/eggplant, cucumbers,
potatoes, peppers/capsicum, toma‐
toes, courgettes/zucchini,
– Some hard cheeses, e.g. Parmesan.

When shopping for food

The freshness of food when first placed
in the appliance is the most important
factor in determining how long it stays
fresh, and how long it can be kept in
the appliance.
Always observe the use-by date and
the recommended storage temperature.
Time out of the refrigerator, e.g. during
transportation, should be kept to a min‐
imum. For example, do not allow food
to stay in a hot car for too long.
Tip: Take a cool bag with you when
shopping and on return place food into
the appliance immediately.
