Refrigerator Compartment
• 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 fruit that spoils easily at low temperatures,
such as bananas, pineapples and melons .
• Give hot food time to cool prior to storing. Placing hot
food in the refrigerator could spoil other food and lead to
higher power bills .
• When storing, cover food with cling wrap or store in
a container with a lid . This will prevent moisture from
evaporating and helps food keep its taste and nutrients .
• Do not block air vents with food. Unhampered circulation
of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even .
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door
allows warm air into the refrigerator causing temperatures
to rise .
• Avoid placing moist food deep inside refrigerator shelves.
It could freeze upon direct contact with the cold air
straight from the vents .
• Always clean fruit and vegetables prior to refrigeration.
These should be washed and wiped to prevent adjacent
foods from spoiling .
• When storing eggs in the trays provided, ensure that
they are fresh and always store them in an upright
position to keep them fresh longer .
