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. Cover or wrap food,
particularly if it has a strong
flavor. Place food carefully 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. 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 in
airtight foil or plastic film
wrap.
20
Milk bottles: Should have a lid and be stored in the door racks. Hints for
freezing When first starting-up or after a period out of use, let the
appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings before putting food in
the compartment. Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and
completely frozen and to make it possible to subsequently thaw only the
quantity required. 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 temperature rise of the latter. Iced
products, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment,
will probably cause frost burns to the skin. It is recommended to label and
date each frozen package in order to keep track of the storage time.
