Beverages and bottled food
Canned food and seasonings
Pickled food or canned pickled food
Wheaten food, canned food, and bean curd
Vegetable
Fruit, vegetables and salad
Hot food must be cooled to room
temperature before storing in the
refrigerator.
Dry any water droplets on the food
before placing it in the refrigerator.
Do not store excess quantities or weights of
food.
Food should be stored with spaces in
between for better storage results. Never
overload shelves, as they may collapse
under excessive loads.
Food to be stored should be properly
sealed.
This will prevent moisture in the food from
evaporating and prevent vegetables and fruit
from tainting in flavor.

Refrigerating Storage Suggestions
Storage period will be extended if
vegetables are placed with their roots
towards the cold source.
Leaves of carrots or turnips should be
removed before storage.
Eggs should be stored vertically in the
egg holder.
Frozen food can be placed in the cold
compartment before serving, as this
will conserve energy.
Ripe squash, melon, pawpaw, bananas and
pineapples should not be stored in the
refrigerator. Freezing will
accelerate the ripening process.
Onions, garlic, ginger, water chestnuts and
other root vegetables should not be stored
in the refrigerator, as these foods are
suitable for long-term storage at normal
temperatures.

and be easier to defrost and cook. The
recommended weight for each portion is less
than 2.5kg.
The outside of any food packing should be
dried before storage in the freezer, and any
packing materials should be odor-free,
airtight, non-poisonous and nontoxic.
Food should be stored in accordance with
any information printed on the packing.
Only remove the required amount of food
from the freezer compartment. Defrosted
food cannot be re-stored in the freezer unless
it is first cooked.
Do not load excessive quantity of fresh food
in the freezer compartment.
Quantity of the food in storage shall comply
with the cooling capacity of the refrigerator.
