REFRIGERATOR FEATURES
Refrigerator Shelves
The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet your
individual storage needs.
Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and
adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make
finding the exact item you want easier. It will also reduce the
amount of time the refrigerator door is open, and save energy.
Shelves
1. Remove the shelf by tilting it up at the front and lifting it out of
the shelf supports. Pull shelf straight out.
2. Reposition the shelf supports in the desired location. Check
that they are level and securely in position.
3. Place the back of the shelf in the shelf supports.
4. Lower the front of the shelf and check to make sure that it is
securely in position.
Deli Pan
The deli pan can be used to store a variety of food items
including dairy, produce and fresh meat.
NOTE: The temperature in the deli pan can be set to meet the
National Livestock and Meat Board recommended storage
temperature range of 28°F to 32°F (-2°C to 0°C) for fresh meats.
The control for the Deli Pan adjusts the temperature of the pan
not the temperature of the refrigerator. Cold air flows into the pan
through the air duct between the freezer and the refrigerator.
Adjusting the control allows more or less cold air through the air
duct.
Deli Pan Temperature Control
1. Choose a setting based on the item to be stored in the pan.
2. Push the button that corresponds to that setting.
3. The indicator light for that setting will illuminate to verify that
the pan is ready to be loaded.
Remove and Replace the Deli Pan Cover
1. Remove the food from the deli pan cover.
2. Pull the pan out about 4" (10.2 cm). Reach under the glass
shelf with both hands and lift gently upward until back of shelf
is free.
3. Tilt the shelf at an angle and remove the shelf from the
refrigerator. Do not bump the glass.
4. Replace the deli pan cover. Hold the deli pan cover firmly with
both hands. Tilt the cover at an angle and position it above
the shelf supports. Set the shelf gently on supports.
Meat Storage Guide
Store most meat in original wrapping as long as it is airtight and
moisture-proof. Rewrap if necessary. See the following chart for
storage times. When storing meat longer than the times given,
freeze the meat.
Fresh fish or shellfish.........................use same day as purchased
Chicken, ground beef, variety meat (liver, etc.) ................1-2 days
Cold cuts, steaks/roasts ..................................................3-5 days

Leftovers - Cover leftovers with plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or
plastic containers with tight lids.
Crisper Drawers and Covers

of the drawer with one hand while supporting the bottom of
the drawer with your other hand and slide the drawer out the
rest of the way.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
