Refrigerator Operation
Crisper Drawers
The crisper drawers provide a higher humidity environment for
fresh fruit and vegetable storage.
Controls
The crisper controls regulate the amount of humidity in the crisper
drawer. Slide the control toward the FRUIT setting for produce
with outer skins. Slide the control toward the VEGETABLES
setting for leafy produce.
To remove:
Pull the drawer out to full extension. Tilt up the front of the
drawer and pull it straight out.
To install:
Insert the drawer into the frame rails and push it back into
place.
NOTE:
For best results, keep the crisper drawers tightly closed.
Deli Drawer
The deli drawer is a full-width drawer with adjustable temperature
control. This drawer can be used for large party trays, deli items,
beverages or miscellaneous items. There is a divider to organize
the drawer into sections if desired.
There is a temperature control which adjusts the amount of cold
air allowed into the deli drawer. The control is located on the right
of the drawer, under the lid.
Set the control to cold to provide a normal refrigerator temper-
ature. Set the drawer on the coldest setting when a temperature
colder than the main refrigerator compartment is desired. Use the
coldest setting when storing meats.
NOTES:
Cold air directed to the
deli drawer can decrease refrigerator
temperature. The refrigerator control may need to be adjusted.
Do not place leafy vegetables in the
deli drawer. Colder
temperatures could damage leafy produce.
To remove:
Lift the lid. Pull the drawer out to full extension. Tilt the drawer
front up and pull it straight out.
To install:
Push the metal glide rails to the back of the refrigerator. Place
the drawer onto the rails and slide the drawer back until it falls
into place.
To remove the divider:
Pull the drawer completely out and raise the front of the divider
to unhook it from the rear wall of the pantry. Lift it out.
To install the divider:
Hook the back of divider over the rear wall of pantry and lower
it into place.
Wine Trivet/Can Rack
The wine trivet/can rack accessory fits in the deli drawer or on a
shelf.
Bottles or cans can be laid crosswise, or a single bottle may be
laid in the center depression.
Deli Drawer Tray
The deli drawer tray allows for a removable tray within the full-
width storage drawer.
Water Dispenser
The water dispenser is located on the left side wall of the fresh
food section. It is designed for cold water dispensing only.
To dispense water:
Hold a container under spout and press dispenser button.
Fresh Food Storage
The fresh food compartment of a refrigerator should be kept
between 34°-40°F (1°-4°C) with an optimum temperature of
38°F (3°C). To check the temperature, place an appliance
thermometer in a glass of water and place in the center of the
refrigerator. Check after 24 hours. If the temperature is above
40°F (4°C) adjust the controls as explained on page 3.
Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reduces
the circulation of air around the food and results in uneven
cooling.
Meat and Cheese
Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage
and contamination of other foods or surfaces does not occur.
Occasionally mold will develop on the surface of hard cheeses
(Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan). Discard cheese that is moldy.
Dairy Food
Most dairy foods such as milk, yogurt, sour cream and cottage
cheese have freshness dates on their cartons for appropriate
length of storage. Store these foods in the original carton and
refrigerate immediately after purchasing and after each use.
