General use of the fridge Fridge • Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered • Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the refrigerator • Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator as this is a wet wall appliance which during normal usage will form droplets of ice on the rear wall(ref to image on Page13)and cause items to freeze to the back wall.
