USING THE REFRIGERATOR EFFICIENTLY
Storage zones in the refrigerator
l Due to the natural circulation of the air in
the appliance, there are different tempera-
ture zones in the refrigerator chamber.
l The coldest area is directly above the
vegetables drawers. Use this area for all
delicate and highly perishable food e.g.
- Fish, meat, poultry
- Sausage products, ready meals
- Dishes or baked goods containing eggs
or cream
- Fresh dough, cake mixtures
- Pre-packed vegetable and other fresh food
with a label stating it should be kept at a
temperature of approx 4
o C.
Food that should not be stored in a
refrigerator
l Not all food is suitable for storing in the
refrigerator. These include:
- Fruit and vegetables which are sensitive to
cold, such as bananas, avocado, papaya,
passion fruit, aubergines, peppers, toma-
toes and cucumbers.
- Fruit which is not yet ripe
- Potatoes
l The warmest area is in the top section of
the door. Use this for storing butter and
cheese.
