People often have the habit of "cramming" all food and drinks into the refrigerator to preserve and cool. However, there are some things below that you absolutely must not put in the freezer if you do not want them to explode like a bomb.
Carbonated drinks

Carbonated drinks generally contain carbon dioxide (CO2). When placed in the freezer, the water in the drink crystallizes, leaving only a small space for CO2. At freezing temperatures, CO2 expands. Because the space inside the can is small, it creates high pressure, leading to an explosion.
Alcoholic beverages
If alcoholic beverages are left tightly closed and stored in the freezer, they can build up pressure and explode. Alcoholic beverages should only be stored in the refrigerator.
Dry ice
Like carbonated drinks, dry ice is essentially solid CO2. If left in a freezer at temperatures below -18 degrees Celsius, carbon dioxide expands 600 to 800 times its solid state, making dry ice a “bomb.”
Notes when using the refrigerator
- Divide food properly: Frozen food should be placed in the freezer or ice compartment; vegetables, fruits and cooked food should be placed in the refrigerator compartment.
- Do not stuff too many things in the refrigerator to make it cramped.
- Keep the temperature at medium for both freezer and refrigerator compartments.
- Close the refrigerator after use to avoid the refrigerator being open or not sealed.
- Clean the refrigerator properly: You need to unplug the refrigerator and use a soft cloth to wipe the refrigerator. Do not use detergents to clean the refrigerator.
- To keep the refrigerator in a cool space, you should put the refrigerator on its feet.
