SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE

STORING FOOD

• 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 goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food and lead to higher electric bills!
• When storing, cover food 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, causing temperatures to rise.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
• Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This deteriorates taste and nutrition.
• When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.
• Avoid storing any food close to the bottom area of the freezer shelf to keep efficient air circulation.
• It is recommended to load food at least 15mm against back of freezer wall, it will keep good air circulation in the freezer compartment.
• Freezer Door Basket, marked ( ^** ) is -12°C compartment, that is suitable for short term storage of frozen food (optional).

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

• Avoid placing moist food deep inside refrigerator shelves, it could freeze upon 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 clean to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.
• When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh. Always store them in a upright position, which keeps them fresh longer.
