Hints for fresh food refrigeration
Hints for the storage of frozen food
Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator, 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.
Ensure that frozen food has been stored
correctly by the food retailer. Once defrosted food will deteriorate rapidly
and should not be re-frozen. Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
food manufacturer.
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.
Cooked food, cold dishes, etc.: They should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: They should be stored in
the special drawer provided.
Butter and cheese: Should be wrapped inairtight
foil or plastic film wrap.

the door racks.
