Using the refrigerated shelves <on some models)
Your freezer is equipped with refrigerated interior
shelves. Packages in direct contact with the
shelves will have the best refrigeration. Fresh,
unfrozen food packages should be stored directly
on the shelves and not on top of already frozen
food packages.
When placing the food packages in your
freezer, please remember
• The cabinet shelves have the best freezing
capability. The door shelves and the bottom of
the cabinet have a slightly higher temperature.
Therefore, packages sensitive to temperature
(meat, poultry, etc.) should not be placed on the
door shelves or the freezer bottom.
• Give the cold air a chance to completely
surround the packages.
