o
Warm food or evaporating liquids should not be stored in your
refrigerator, as this will increase the humidity inside of the
appliance.
o
All foods should be wrapped or covered, this is particularly
important if the food has a strong flavour. You should use
polythene bags or sheets, aluminium foil, wax paper. Liquids
should be stored in covered containers or bottles.
o
To maximise the space inside of the fridge section, any excessive
packaging on the food should be removed.
o
Quickly perishable food should be stored at the back of the
refrigerator, which is the coldest part of the appliance.
o
No food items should be allowed to come into contact with the
back wall of the refrigerator.
o
Make sure that you arrange food in such a way that the door can
close completely. Particular attention should be given to bottles
that may protrude when placed on shelves inside the main
section of the refrigerator.
