Store perishable foods in the appliance immediately after purchase. Storingatroom
temperature increases the rate of deterioration and can allow harmfulmicrobialgrowth.

Foods such as meat, poultry and seafood should be well wrapped or sealed in
suitablepackaging to prevent dehydration, color deterioration, loss of flavor, and transfer
ofodor.
Note: We recommend storing these foods on the bottom shelf of your appliance
orinone of the bins to prevent potential spills and cross-contamination with
otherfoods.
