Refrigerator location
Install the refrigerator on a floor
strong enough to support it when
it is fully loaded.
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below 60°E
because it will not run often enough
to maintain prover temo_-ratures.
Also see Energy-Saving Tips
regarding location.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances
for ease of installation and proper
air circulation:
Sides .................... 3/4"
Top ....................... 1"

If refrigerator is to be installed
against a wall on the hinge side,
allow i½" for door clearance.
Water supply to icemaker
You will need to connect your
icemaker to a cold water line. A

Meats, fish and poultry purchased
from the store vary in quality and
age; consequently, safe storage
time in your refrigerator will vary.
To stere unfrozen meats, fish and
[rumRry:
o Always remove store wrappings.
,+Rewrap in foil, fi!m or wax paper
and refrigerate immediately.
To store cheese, wrap well with
wax paper or aluminum foil, or put
in a plastic bag.
• Carefully wrap to expel air and
help prevent mold.
o Store pre-packaged cheese in its
own wrapping if you wish.
To store vegetables, use the
vegetable drawers--they've been
designed to preserve the natural
moisture and freshness of produce.
• Covering vegetables with a moist
towel helps maintain crispness.
• As a further aid to freshness,
pre-packaged vegetables can be
stored in their original wrapping.
Note: Special fresh food compartment
drawers (on models so equipped)
,_,_.q_it unnecessary to wrap cem2in
foods which they've been designed
to preserve. These drawers are
described on pages 10 and 11.
To store ice cream--Fine-quality
ice cream, with high cream
content, will normally require
Sl.'_k*l.,
._,,,,y lower temperatures than
more "airy" already-packaged
brands with low cream content.
• It will be necessary to expe "nment to
determine the freezer compartment
location and temperature control
setting to keep your ice cream at
the rigb_ serving temperaVare.
• The rear of the freezer compartment
is slightly colder th_n Lhe front.

3. Proper packaging. Use food

To freeze meat, fish and poultry,
wrap well in freezer-weight foil (or

provide a good, lasting seal.
Don't refreeze meat that has
completely thawed; meat, whether
raw or cooked, can be frozen
successfully only once.

meats or seafoods to 22 pounds at
