Hints for fresh food refrigeration

• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator or freezer, the internal temperature will increase resulting in the compressor having to work harder and will consume more energy.
• Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavor.

• Place food properly so that air can circulate freely around it.
  Hints for refrigeration

• Meat (All Types) Wrap in polythene food: wrap and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. Always follow food storage times and use by dates suggested by manufacturers.

• Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene food wraps which are airtight.

• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food which is already frozen to avoid patrial defrosting.

• It is recommended to label and date each frozen package in order to keep track of the storage time.
