Storing Foods Effectively

  • Food may freeze or spoil if stored at the wrong temperature. Set the refrigerator to the correct temperature for the food being stored.

  • Store frozen food or refrigerated food inside sealed containers.

  • Check the expiration date and label (storage instructions) before storing food in the appliance.

  • Do not store food for a long period of time if it spoils easily at a low temperature.

  • Do not place unfrozen food in direct contact with food that is already frozen. It could be necessary to reduce the quantity to be frozen if freezing every day is anticipated.

  • Place the refrigerated food or frozen food in each fridge or freezer compartment immediately after purchasing.

  • Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or drip onto other food.

  • Refrigerated foods and other food items can be stored on top of the vegetable drawer.

  • Avoid refreezing any food which has been completely thawed. Freezing any food which has been completely thawed again will lower its taste and nutrition.

  • Do not overfill the appliance. Cold air can not circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.

  • Cool hot food before storing. If too much hot food is placed inside, the internal temperature of the appliance can increase and negatively affect other foods stored in the appliance.

  • If you set an excessively low temperature for food, it may become frozen. Do not set a temperature lower than the required temperature for the food to be stored correctly.

  • If there are chill compartments in the appliance, do not store vegetables and fruits with higher moisture content in the chill compartments as they may freeze due to the lower temperature.

  • In the event of a blackout, call the electricity company and ask how long it is going to last.

    • You should avoid door openings while the power is off.

    • When the power supply gets back to normal, check the condition of the food.
