Storing foods

Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed
is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavour.
Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas,
and melons.
Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in a refrigerator could
spoil other food, and lead to higher energy consumption.
When storing food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid.
This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and
nutrients.
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.
Never keep too much food in the door rack as it may push against the inner racks
so that the door cannot fully close.
Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrients.
When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer
shelf, not in the door rack.
Do not touch cold foods or containers - especially metallic containers - with wet
hands or place glass products in the freezer compartment.
- You may get chill blains, and glass containers may break when frozen, causing
personal injury.
Avoid placing sauces on top refrigerator shelves, which could freeze on direct
contact with chilled air.
Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed
and wiped, and 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, which keeps them fresh longer.
NOTE
• If you keeping the refrigerator in a hot and humid place, frequently open the
door or store a lot of vegetables, dew may form. This has no effect on operation
or performance. Remove the dew with an absorbent dry cloth.
Suggestion for energy saving
• Please do not keep the door open for a long
time, close door in the shortest time.
• Too much food are not advised to be put in.
Enough space should be kept for cool air
circulating freely.
• Do not set the temperature of fridge-freezer
lower than needed. Do not put the food near the
temperature sensor.

• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing
hot food in the fridge-freezer could spoil other
food, and lead to higher electric bills.
• Do not block air vents with food. Smooth
circulation of cold air keeps fridge-freezer
temperature even.
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the
door lets warm air enter the fridge-freezer, and
cause temperature to rise.
