Fridge use
•
Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
•
Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should
be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put
into the refrigerator.
•
Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the
refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible
condensation problems which will be difficult to remove.
•
Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped
away before putting into the fridge.
•
Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This
will help prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and
avoid unpleasant odours.
•
Sort foods prior to storing. Any foods to be used soon
should be stored at the front of the shelf to prevent
deterioration caused by the door being open for
prolonged periods.
•
Do not overfill the fridge. There should be sufficient space
between the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
•
Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help
to keep the temperature low and save energy.
Freezer use
•
The freezer compartments are designed to store only
frozen food.
•
Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to
cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
