Ensure that doors have a good seal and close tightly to maintain the temperature and the efficiency of the unit. Additionally, keep doors closed as much as possible. Keep a back-up appliance thermometer in the unit in case of a power outage. If the refrigerator is still 40Â°F when the power returns, the food is safe. The food should not be consumed if the temperature is held at 40Â°F for more than two hours.
Leftover refrigerator foods should also be reheated to the proper internal temperature. Bacteria grow most rapidly in the range of 40Â°F and 140Â°F. To keep food out of this danger zone, keep cold food cold (below 40Â°F) and hot food hot (above 140Â°F).Figure 5 provides information for temperature rules for proper cooking and food handling. Proper cooking makes most uncooked foods safe.he refrigerator should be set at no higher than 40Â°F and the freezer at 0Â°F, and these temperatures should be checked with an appliance thermometer. Refrigerated leftovers may become unsafe within 3 to 4 days. Despite the appearance of a food, it may not be safe to eat.
