Complete Guide to Using a Refrigerator

Get the most from your fridge with a few simple rules. Keep the refrigerator around 37°F and the freezer at 0°F, and avoid overpacking so cold air can circulate. Store raw meat on the bottom shelf, use crisper drawers for produce, and keep dairy away from the door where temperatures swing. Let hot food cool before refrigerating, clean spills quickly, and check door seals for a tight close. Wipe coils and replace water filters on schedule.
