FREEZER FEATURES
Your model may have some or all of these features.
Freezer Shelf
Depending on your model, the shelf may be wire or glass.
To remove and replace a shelf:
1. Remove items from the shelf.
2. Slide the shelf straight out to the stop.
3. Depending on your model, lift back or front of the shelf past
the stop. Slide shelf out the rest of the way.
4. Replace the shelf by sliding the back of the shelf into the track
in the wall of the cabinet.
5. Guide the front of the shelf into the shelf track. Be sure to slide
the shelf in all the way.
Frozen Food Storage Guide
Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food,
the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and
moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Seal the package
or container securely to avoid taste and odor transfer throughout
the product. 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.
Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within
24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food per cubic foot [907 to
1,350 g per L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the
freezer for air to circulate around packages. The freezer door
must close tightly.
NOTE: For more information on preparing food for freezing, check
a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.
DOOR FEATURES
Your model may have some or all of these features.
Door Rails
The door rails may be removed for easier cleaning.
To remove and replace the rails:
1. Depending on your model, remove the rails by pushing in
slightly on the front of the bracket while pulling out on the
inside tab. Repeat these steps for the other end.
2. Replace the rails by aligning the ends of the brackets with the
buttons on the sides of the door liner. Firmly snap bracket and
assembly onto the tabs above the shelf as shown.
Door Bins
To remove and replace the bins:
1. Remove the bin by lifting it and pulling it straight out.
2. Replace the bin by sliding it in above the desired support and
pushing it down until it stops.
Utility Compartment
The utility compartment may be removed for easier cleaning.
To remove and replace the utility compartment:
1. Remove the utility compartment by squeezing against one
side while raising the utility compartment up and pulling it
straight out.
2. Replace the utility compartment by positioning one side in
the lock and sliding in the opposite side until it stops.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
