Storing Foods • Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor. • Do not store food which spoils easily at low temperatures, such as bananasand melons. • Allow hot food to cool prior to storing, placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher energy consumption. • When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating,and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients. • Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even. • Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, and cause temperatures to rise. • Never keep too much food in door rack because they may push against by inner racks so that the door cannot be fully closed. Freezer Compartment • Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen. • Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrient. • When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack. • Do not touch the cold foods or containers- especially made of metallic -, with wet hands and place glass products in the freezer compartment. - That's why you may have chilblainsand they may be broken when their inner matters are frozen, causing personal injury. Refrigerator Compartment • Avoid placing moist food in top refrigerator shelves, it could freeze from direct contact with chilled air. • Always clean food prior to refrigeration.Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling. • When storing eggs in their storage rack or box, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in an upright position, which keeps them fresh longer.
