BEST WAYS TO STORE FOOD
Storing the food●  Store foods which are easily frozen
    on the outer position of the
     refrigerator shelf.   - If foods which are easily frozen     or contain a lot water are stored on     the inner part of the refrigerator     shelf, it will be frozen owing to low     temperature.
●  Store the foods or other things after     cleaning and wiping.   - Store vegetables and fruits after
      cleaning and wiping. Packed food like      bottle should be stored after wiping to      avoid polluting the other foods.
●  Storing the heated food after cooling.  - Storing the heated food directly in    the refrigerator will affect the other    foods inside and will also waste the    power.
●  In the low temperature mode,do not
     
store the food which can easily be
     rotten for a long time.
●  Store food after packing or
   putting into tight container.  -  Packing the food before storing     can prevent drying. This can also     reduce odour when storing the     food for a longer time.
●  Do not store bottles in the Freezing
     
Compartment.   - If bottles are stored in the Freezing     compartment, the liquid inside will
     be frozen and break the bottle.   - The volume of liquid such as juice or     water should not exceeding 80% of      the container's volume.

●  The refrigerator dew forming on     the surface.   - If the refrigerator is installed in a     humid environment or if it is     raining,there can be dew forming     on the surface of the refrigerator.     This is because moisture in the air     touches the surface of the     refrigerator.   - Please wipe it with a clean soft cloth.
●  Your hear a sound likes flowing     water.   - It is the sound produced when the     compressor stops operating.   - It is the sound of flowing refrigerant     in the freezing system.   - Sound can be produced by the     contraction and expansion of the     parts due to temperature changes     inside the refrigerator.
●  The surface of refrigerator is
     warm.   - A high temperature pipe which     prevents dewing is installed inside     the refrigerator when the refrigerator     begins to operate or when it is     summer,the surface will become     warm. Please do not worry because     this is a normal effect.
