Storing Food; Freezer Compartment; Refrigerator Compartment - LG GC-181SA User Manual

Storing Food

• How food is frozen and defrosted is an important
factor in maintaining freshness and flavor.
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low
temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples and
melons.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Adding too
much warm food to the refrigerator could spoil other
food, and lead to high electric bills.
• Do not open doors too frequently. Whenever the door
is opened, warm air enters the refrigerator, causing
temperatures to rise.

Freezer Compartment

• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment –they
may break when frozen.
• Do not refreeze food that has been completely thawed.
This causes loss of taste and nutritional value.

Refrigerator Compartment

• When storing, wrap food in vinyl, or place in a covered
container. This prevents moisture from evaporating,
and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.
• Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables
and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed
food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food
from spoiling.
• Food with odor (fish, cheese, butter etc.) should be
wrapped securely or stored in closed containers.
In case of placing a big bottle in the COMMODITY
NOTE
RACK, if excessive force is used to open/close the
door, the bottle may fall down, so be careful.
