Store your food in the optimal space to enjoy the freshest taste.
Vegetable storage

Preserves vegetables and
fruit.
Ice storage bin
If a large amount of ice is
needed, transfer the ice in
the in-door ice bin to the ice
storage bin.
Durabase
®
Largest storage space in
the freezer.
Dairy product bin
Adjustable refrigerator shelf
Adjustable shelves to meet
your individual storage
needs.
Modular door bin

juice and soda, as well as
seasonings, salad dressings
and other food items.
Temperature Controlled Pantry Drawer
(some models)
Provides storage space with a variable
temperature control that keeps the
compartment at a different temperature
than the refrigerator. It is a convenient place
to store sandwiches or meat to be cooked.
CAUTION
Do not store food with high moisture content towards the top of the refrigerator.
y
The moisture could come in direct contact with the cold air and freeze.
Wash food before storing it in the refrigerator. Vegetables and fruit should be washed, and food
y
packaging should be wiped down to prevent adjacent foods from being contaminated.
If the refrigerator is kept in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the door or storing a lot
y
of vegetables in the refrigerator may cause condensation to form. Wipe off the condensation
with a clean cloth or a paper towel.
If the refrigerator door or freezer drawer is opened or closed too often, warm air may penetrate
y
the refrigerator and raise its temperature. It can also add to your electricity cost.
It may be normal to see some minor traces of condensation on the outer left side of the
y
refrigerator under extremely high humidity conditions due to the ice maker air flow ducts.
NOTE
If you are leaving home for a short period of time, like a short vacation, the refrigerator should
y
be left on. Refrigerated foods that are able to be frozen will stay preserved longer if stored in the
freezer.
If you are leaving the refrigerator turned off for an extended period of time, remove all food,
y
empty out the ice bin and unplug the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the door open to
prevent fungi from growing in the refrigerator.
