[. . . ] (Leave food in a place as cool as possible in order that it can then be placed in the refrigerator as soon as possible). Do NOT mix raw and cooked meat, they must be in separate containers. Take care not to let the meat juices drip onto other food. If the meat does drip, remove everything and clean thoroughly. The best way to defrost food is to put it in the refrigerator to thaw slowly. Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and clean the interior (see "Maintenance and Cleaning"). Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and labelled and used in date order to ensure that food is consumed at its best. It is important that food is used before its "best before" date. Store eggs in the egg rack provided in the refrigerator door. Discard any broken or chipped eggs. s s s s s s s s s s Regularly check the refrigerator door seal to ensure that it is clean and free from debris. Always wash your hands with soapy water and dry them with a clean towel before handling food. Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross contamination by not using the same work surface or knife, without washing them thoroughly in between. The foods to be frozen must be fresh and of the best quality. The size of each pack should be small enough to ensure that it is used in one go. Small packs freeze more quickly and uniformly and give better results. Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen. Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty food, salt reduces the storage time. Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and provide an airtight seal. Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate that the product has not been kept at a suitable temperature and that it may have lost its original quality. Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours. Never exceed the storage time indicated. Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy drink in the freezer as they may explode. [. . . ] There should be 100mm (4") between the top of the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen furniture.
