USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Freezing

IMPORTANT:

Do not store bottles in the freezer

compartment - they may break when frozen,
causing damage.

Your freezer will not quick-freeze any large quantity of
food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than
will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food

per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in

the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful
to leave enough room at the front so the door can close
tightly.

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type

of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (airtight and

moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals
inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means

that moisture in the food and air inside the package have
condensed, creating ice crystals.

NOTE: Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for
30 minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods
before freezing saves energy.

NOTE: Do not store food near the sensor; it may cause

the sensor to malfunction.

A WARNING

Suffocation Hazard

When using dry ice, provide adequate ventilation.

Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide (CO^). When it

vaporizes, it can displace oxygen, causing dizziness,

light-headedness, unconsciousness and death by

suffocation. Open a window and do not breathe
the vapors.___________________________________

REFRIGERATOR SECTION

REFRIGERATOR SHELVES

The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet
your individual storage needs. These units are all glass
shelves.

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,
saving energy.

liyiPORTANT: Do not clean glass shelves with warm

water when they are cold. Shelves may break if exposed

to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as
bumping. For your protection, glass shelves are made

with tempered glass, which will shatter into small pebble­

sized pieces.

NOTE: Glass shelves are heavy. Use special care when
removing them to avoid dropping them.

Adjusting Shelves

Remove shelves from the shipping position and replace

shelves in the position you want.

To remove a shelf : Tilt up the front of the shelf in the
direction of (1) and lift it in the direction of (2). Pull the
shelf out.

To replace a shelf : Tilt the front of the shelf up and
guide the shelf hooks into the slots at a desired height.
Then lower the front of the shelf so that the hooks drop

into the slots.

NOTE: Make sure that shelves are level from one side to

the other. Failure to do so may result in the shelf falling or
spilling food.

Sliding Out Shelves (optional on some models)

You can slide some glass shelves in and out of your
refrigerator as follows,

» To slide the shelf out, carefully pull front of shelf

toward you.

* To slide shelf in, push shelf in until it stops.

To remove a sliding shelf from its metal frame:

1. Pull the shelf out to the stop position.

2. Tilt the front of the shelf up and pull it past the stop position.

3. Lift up the shelf to remove.

Replace the shelf by reversing the above steps.

Convenience Shelves (on some models)

• Folding Shelf: You can store taller items such as gallon

containers or bottles by simply sliding the shelf back.
