The refrigerator is a rather complicated household appliance. Like any device, it requires careful handling and compliance with optimal operating conditions in order to work without breakdowns and for many years. Regardless of what brand your refrigerator is, the freshness and safety of the products stored in it will largely depend on the temperature set in the refrigerator and freezer.
How the temperature in the refrigerator is regulated
Each refrigerator has a temperature control knob on which the minimum and maximum temperatures are marked, as well as intermediate divisions equivalent to 1 degree Celsius, usually from 1 to 7, are drawn. In some refrigerators, there are fewer divisions, and they are not equivalent to the number of degrees, so determine the temperature is only conditional, but this is enough.
When choosing the optimal temperature, it should be noted that in refrigerators with a drip defrosting system, the temperature difference on the upper and lower shelves can be up to 4-5 degrees, in refrigerators equipped with the No Frost - "No Frost" system this difference is 1-2 degrees. If the freezer is located below, the temperature on the top shelf will be slightly higher than on the bottom. Due to this difference, differentiated storage of products is organized in refrigerators; you should follow the recommendations in accordance with the icons that are marked on the storage boxes. Following these rules, you can not only keep food fresh longer, but also save energy.
