How it Works
The Climate Control feature is a system of
dampers, a fan, and a temperature thermistor.
The Climate Control drawer can be used to
chill items quickly, thaw foods quickly or store
items at their optimum temperatures.
The drawer is tightly sealed to prevent
the drawer’s temperature from causing
temperature fluctuations in the rest of the
refrigerator.
SELECT TEMP—Use this feature to store
items at their optimum temperatures. The
CITRUS setting will maintain a drawer
temperature of 39-47°F (3.9 - 8.3°C). The
PRODUCE setting will maintain the drawer
temperature at 31-38°F (-0.6 - 3.3°C). The
MEAT setting will maintain the drawer
temperature at 27-37°F (-2.8 - 2.8°C).
EXPRESS CHILL—This feature can be
used to cool items in minutes, rather than
hours. Extra cool air is circulated throughout
the drawer. Once the cycle is complete, the
drawer will revert to the OFF mode.
EXPRESS THAW—This feature thaws items
in hours rather than days. Food is gently
thawed in a cool environment by circulating
air throughout the drawer. Temperature is
maintained in the drawer by cycling a small
heater off and on as needed. Once the thaw
cycle is complete, the pan will automatically
adjust to a temperature of 27–37°F (-2.8
- 2.8°C) to store the food at its optimum
temperature.
NOTE: When the controls on the Climate
Control drawer are turned off, the drawer
will maintain temperatures at 42-48°F (5.6 -
8.9°C).
How to Use
1 Empty the drawer. Place the items in the
drawer.
2 Select the Express Thaw,™ Express
Chill™ or Select Temp™ pad. The display
will come on. Press the pad until the light
appears next to the desired setting. Use
the chart on the next page to determine the
best setting.
• To stop a feature before it is finished,
press that feature’s pad until no options
are selected and the display is off.
• During Express Thaw™ and Express
Chill,™ the display on the controls will
count down the time remaining in the
cycle.
• After the Express Thaw™ cycle is
complete, the drawer will reset to the
MEAT setting (27-37°F [-2.8 - 2.8°C]) to
help preserve thawed items until they are
used.
• The displayed actual temperature of the
Climate Control drawer may vary slightly
from the SET temperature based on usage
and operation environment.
NOTE: For food safety reasons, it is
recommended that foods be wrapped in plastic
wrap when using Express Thaw™.This will
help contain meat juices and improve thawing
performance.
