Storage Guidelines
There are a series of icons printed on the inside of the Freezer door that
give approximate storage periods for different types of food. These can be
used to provide quick guidelines, if in doubt you should consult the more
accurate table opposite.

This
tape is available in white, so you can use it to write the items
contents on. You can buy special freezer labels and pens. Labels come
in different colours which can help you use your Freezer effectively.
For instance you could colour code meat red and vegetables green.
Using a different colour label for each quarter of the year will help
you rotate your frozen food more efficiently.
