I would suggest if you need such important info ,ring the manufactures they will give you all the instructions needed. It seems the safest thing to do, contact details are generally on the papers included in the box. Good Luck.

The fridge temp is on the package insert. I think it is like 38-44 degrees F. In the summer, I kept a fridge thermometer on top of the box because my 4 kids were constantly in the fridge. Should not be kept out of the fridge for more than 24 hrs, but better to keep icold

Hi Tarot1234, the general storage temperature is between 2 - 8 degrees C, but there are different storage temperatures and storage times for different brands, what brand is being used? Maz
