FOOD STORAGE SUGGESTIONS

Frozen Food Storage Compartment

This refrigerator’s frozen food storage compartment
will make ice and will store pre-frozen foods for
about two weeks.

It will not effectively freeze fresh foods or provide
long term storage for meats, poultry or fish. 
These
products should be used within several 

Pre-frozen concentrates and high sugar content
foods, such as frozen orange juice and ice cream,

 not remain completely solid (frozen) and must

be used quickly. For best results such items should be
placed in direct contact with the refrigerated surface
(where frost 

 first).

If additional firmness is desired:

● 

Set temperature control to colder position (“9” is

coldest).

. Transfer ice cream from original carton to   covered,

flat-bottomed container.

For best storage of frozen foods:

Use moisture-proof wrapping material and bags or

 freezer containers. Commercially-frozen foods

are usually suitably packaged.
