How do I store my fruit and vegetables in FridgeSmart?
Remove your fruit or veg from any packaging and then simply add them straight to the FridgeSmart container. Set the switch to the setting corresponding to the diagram on the container depending on what you’re storing. We recommend that you do not wash fruit and veg before storing it in FridgeSmart. Excess water can cause unnecessary moisture, which can affect how long your food lasts. The FridgeSmart system regulates moisture levels to keep your food fresher for longer, so just wash when you’re ready to eat.
For best results store on day of purchase and before the best before date.
Should I remove all the packaging before storing fruit/veg in FridgeSmart?
Should I wash the fruit and veg before storing in FridgeSmart?
No, please don’t wash your fruit and veg before storing. The excess water/moisture will affect FridgeSmart’s performance.
Can I peel/slice/chop up fruit or veg before storing?
Please do not cut or peel fruit and veg before storing in FridgeSmart, this will make it go bad faster and prevent FridgeSmart from working effectively.
Can I store different fruits/vegetables in the same container?
Foods from the same breather group – as indicated on the container and IM – can be stored together.
How do I know what setting to use?
Each FridgeSmart container has an easy-read diagram printed directly on the container showing which vent setting to use for different common fruits and vegetables.
What do the symbols mean?
FridgeSmart containers offer 3 venting options, so you can create the perfect storage conditions for all your favourite fruits and vegetables. On the diagram, the settings to use for different foods are represented by the symbols below:
Half Open: Align the tab with the half circle on the pictogram. Use this option for light venting for medium breathers.
Closed: Align the tab with the fully etched circle in the pictogram. Use this option for low breathers.
Fully Open: Align the tab with the hollow, glossy circle on the pictogram. Use this option for high breathers.
