STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY

Ideas for storing foods

Fresh food storage

  • Keep the fresh food compartment between 34°F and 40°F with an optimum temperature of 37°F.
  • Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves, which reduces air circulation and causes uneven cooling.
  • Avoid placing food in front of air ports. (See Controls Section for illustration.)

Fruits and vegetables

  • Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for longer time periods.
  • Wash items and remove excess water.
  • Wrap any items that have strong odors or high moisture content.

Meat

  • Wrap raw meat and poultry separately and securely to prevent leaks and contamination of other foods or surfaces.
  • Use the deli drawer to store meat/poultry for short-term storage. Any meat to be kept longer than two days should be frozen.

Frozen food storage

  • Keep the freezer compartment at 0°F or lower.
  • A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least ⅔ full.

Packaging foods for freezing

  • To minimize food dehydration and quality deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags, or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the packages as possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).
  • Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing.
  • Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.

  • Prior to grocery shopping, activate “quick freeze” so that on your return you can ensure your newly purchased food designated for the freezer will be preserved as quickly as possible.
  • Activating “quick freeze” also will help your freezer more efficiently maintain the selected temperature after placing new purchases with pre-existing frozen foods.
  • Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing, and can raise the temperature of frozen foods.
  • Leave a space between packages, so cold air can circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as possible.

Ideas for saving energy

Installation

  • Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating ducts or registers.
  • Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the two appliances will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently.
  • Level the refrigerator so that the doors close tightly.

Temperature settings

  • Refer to the “Controls” section for procedures on temperature settings.

Food storage

  • Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or blocking cold air vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.
  • Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
  • Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
  • Do not place a hot container directly on a cold shelf. Remember, such an extreme temperature change may damage the glass.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS AND SIGHTS

Understanding the sounds you may hear

Your new, high-efficiency refrigerator may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds normally indicate your refrigerator is operating correctly. Some surfaces on floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may make these sounds more noticeable.

The following is a list of major components in your refrigerator and the sounds they can cause:

  1. Evaporator Refrigerant through the evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling sound.
  2. Evaporator fan You may hear air being forced through the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.
  3. Defrost heater During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the defrost heater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may occur.
  4. Automatic ice maker When ice has been produced, you will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin. Ice maker fan, water valve activation, and refrigerant gas fluid may create sounds from its operation.
  5. Electronic control & automatic defrost control These parts can produce a snapping or clicking sound when turning the cooling system on and off.
  6. Condenser fan You may hear air being forced through the condenser.
  7. Compressor Modern, high-efficiency compressors run much faster than older models. The compressor may have a highpitched hum or pulsating sound.
  8. Water valve Makes a buzzing sound each time it opens to fill the ice maker.
  9. Drain pan (not removable) You may hear water dripping into the drain pan during the defrost cycle. J Condenser May create minimal sounds from forced air.
  10. Motorized damper May produce a light humming during operation.
  11. Ice dispensing paddle When dispensing ice, you will hear a snapping, clicking, or popping sound.

NOTE Energy efficient foam in your refrigerator is not a sound insulator.

NOTE During automatic defrost cycle, a red glow in the back wall vents of your freezer compartment is normal.

CHANGING THE FILTER

Ice maker is not making enough ice.
  • Ice maker is producing less ice than you expect.
  • The water filter may be clogged with foreign material.
  • The water supply line is kinked.
  • Saddle valve on cold water pipe is clogged or restricted by foreign material.
  • Heavy traffic, opening or closing of the doors excessively.
  • Freezer control is set too warm (freezer ice maker).
  • Water pressure is extremely low. Cut-off and cut-on pressures are too low (well systems only).
  • Reverse osmosis system is in regenerative phase.
  • The ice maker will produce approximately 2.0 to 2.5 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.
  • If water dispenses slower than normal, or if the filter is six months old or older, it should be replaced.
  • Ensure that the supply line does not kink when the refrigerator is pushed into place against the wall.
  • Turn off household water line valve. Remove valve. Clean valve. Replace valve if necessary.
  • Press Fast Freeze to temporarily increase ice production rate. (Freezer ice maker only.)
  • Set freezer control to colder setting to improve performance of the ice maker (freezer ice maker). Allow 24 hours for temperature to stabilize.
  • Have someone turn up the cut-off and cut-on pressure on the water pump system (well systems only).
  • It is normal for a reverse osmosis system to be below 20 psi during the regenerative phase.
Freezer ice maker will not stop making ice (select models).
  • Ice maker wire signal arm is being held down by a package in the freezer that has fallen against ice maker.
  • Move any item or frozen ice cubes that may block the signal arm from being in the off or upward position. See Automatic Ice Maker-Freezer section in manual.
Ice cubes are freezing together.
  • Ice cubes are not being used frequently enough or interruption of power for prolonged time.
  • Ice cubes are hollow (shells of ice with water inside). The hollow cubes break open in the bin and leak their water onto existing ice, which causes it to freeze together.
  • Remove ice container and discard ice. The ice maker will produce fresh supply. Ice should be used at least twice weekly to keep the cubes separated.
  • This generally occurs when the ice maker does not get enough water. This is usually the result of a clogged water filter or restricted water supply. Replace the water filter and if the condition still occurs check for a clogged Saddle Valve, water valve not turned on all the way or kinked water supply line.
Dispenser (Ice & Water)
Dispenser will not dispense ice.
  • There is no ice in the bin to be dispensed.
  • The refrigerator doors are not completely closed.
  • Dispenser paddle has been pressed too long and the dispenser motor has overheated.
  • See the “Ice maker is not making any ice” section above.
  • Be sure the refrigerator doors are completely closed.
  • The motor overload protector will reset in about three minutes and then ice can be dispensed.
Ice dispenser is jammed.
  • Ice has melted and frozen around auger due to infrequent use, temperature fluctuations, and/or power outages.
  • Ice cubes are jammed between ice maker and back of ice container
  • Remove ice container, thaw, and empty the contents. Clean container, wipe dry, and replace in proper position. When new ice is made, dispenser should operate.
  • Remove ice cubes that are jamming the dispenser.
Dispenser will not dispense water.
  • Water filter not seated properly.
  • Water filter is clogged.
  • Household water line valve is not open.
  • Remove and reinstall the water filter. For Puresource Ultra II, be sure to rotate it to the right until it stops and the grip end is vertical.
  • Replace filter cartridge. Be sure to rotate it to the right until it stops and the grip end is vertical.
  • Open household water line valve. See CONCERN column AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER.
