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.
Fruits and Vegetables
• Store fruits and vegetables in crisper
drawers, where trapped moisture helps
preserve food quality for longer time periods.
Meat
• Wrap raw meat and poultry securely so
leakage and contamination of other foods
or surfaces does not occur.
Dairy Bin
Use the dairy compartment, at the top of the
fresh food compartment door, for short term
storage of cheese, spreads, or butter. The dairy
compartment is designed to be warmer than
the open storage area to accommodate these
types of food.
Full Width Gallon Bin
The full width gallon bin is especially designed
to hold gallon-sized containers like milk gallons.
• Locate the appliance in the
coolest part of the room,
out of direct sunlight, and
away from heating ducts or
registers. Do not place the
unit next to heat-producing
NOTE
Leafy vegetables keep best when stored
with the humidity control set on HIGH
HUMIDITY, or in a drawer without a
humidity control. This keeps incoming air
to a minimum and maintains maximum
moisture content.
Adjustable Two-Liter Door Bins
This model is equipped with adjustable door
bins that can be moved to suit individual needs.
To Move Door Bins:
• Lift the bin straight up.
• Remove the bin.
• Place the bin in desired position.
• Lower the bin onto supports until locked
in place.
STORAGE FEATURES
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
unit operate more efciently.
• Level appliance so that the door closes tightly.
• Refer to the “SETTING THE
TEMPERATURE CONTROL” section for the
suggested temperature control settings.
• Do not overcrowd the unit or block cold
air vents. Doing so causes the appliance
to run longer and use more energy.
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry
before placing them in the appliance. This
cuts down on moisture build-up inside
the unit.
• Organize the appliance to reduce door
openings. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as
soon as possible.
