set the refrigerator temperature to COLD.

Storing Food
Follow the recommendations below when storing food in the
refrigerator.
1 Put food in containers with lids or in plastic bags or cover it with
plastic film to prevent:
◆ The food from drying up
◆ Smells from permeating other items of food
2 Allow hot food or drinks to cool before placing them in the
refrigerator.
3 Leave sufficient room between the items and in front of the
ventilation slots to enable the cool air to circulate freely.
4 Try and maintain easy access to the temperature dial in case you
need to adjust the temperature.
5 If you have washed any fruit or vegetables, dry them before
storing them in the vegetable bin.
