To stop any excess rise in temperatures the door should be closed as soon as possible.

For hygiene reasons, it is always a good practise to pack, wrap and cover the food before storing.

Use a polythene bag to store raw meat and place on the lowest shelf. Avoid contact with cooked food to prevent contamination. For safety reason, store raw meat for two to three days only.

Cooked dishes must be stored in airtight covered containers.

Energy saving tips for the BUSH B60185FFWTDW:

Place your fridge away from direct sunlight, your oven or any other heat sources. Allow 20 cm clear space on both sides and above, and at least 5 cm behind.

Cover all food stored, and arrange it so that cold air can circulate freely.

Higher cold setting will use more energy. Do not set to maximum cold if it is not necessary.

Cool the hot/warm food to room temperature before putting them into your fridge.

Frequently opening and closing the door will cause the internal temperature to rise and it will consume more energy.

Close the door(s) properly, and make sure the seals and hinges are airtight. Check the seals by putting a sheet of paper between the door and the main body of the fridge. If the paper moves, your seals need replacing.

Defrost regularly if your refrigerator is not a frost-free or cyclic defrost model. Accumulated ice layer should not be more than 5mm thick.
