Storing Food
Food storage guide
Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed
Do not store food that spoils quickly, such as bananas and melons, at low
temperatures.
Allow hot food to cool prior to storing it in the refrigerator. Placing hot food in the
refrigerator could spoil other food and lead to a higher energy consumption.
Tightly wrap food or store it in a container with a lid.
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 and causes temperatures to rise.
For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness.
Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages.
Your freezer will not quick-freeze a large quantity of food. Do not put more
unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to
3 pounds of food per cubic foot of freezer space).
Freezer
Do not store bottles or glass in the freezer compartment. They may break or
compartment
shatter.
Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and
nutrients.
When storing frozen food for an extended period of time, such as ice cream,
keep it on a shelf, not in a door bin.
Do not touch frozen containers made of metal with wet hands.
Refrigerator
Always clean food prior to refrigerating. Vegetables and fruits should be washed
compartment
and dried. Packed food should be wiped to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.
When storing eggs in their storage rack or box, ensure that they are fresh, and
always store them in an upright position.
NOTE
• If you keep the refrigerator in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the
door or storing a lot of vegetables in it may cause condensation to form which
has no effect on its performance. Remove the condensation with a paper or
kitchen towel.
