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 2-3 Ibs of food per cubic foot [907-1,350 g

per L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air

to circulate around packages. Leave enough room for the door to

close tightly.

NOTE: For more information on preparing food for freezing, check

a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

can be purchased separately as product accessories are labeled

purchasing one of the accessories.

The door rails may be removed for easier cleaning.

To remove and replace the rails:

1. Remove all items from the shelf and pull straight up on each

end of the rails.

2. Locate each end of the rail above the rail's pocket opening,

and push the rail straight down until it stops.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

E×plosion Hazard

Use nonflammable

cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,

or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.

However, clean both compartments

about once a month to avoid

buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IM PORTANT:

Because air circulates between both sections, any odors

formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must

thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid

odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods

tightly.

For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion-

resistant and not corrosion-proof.

To help avoid corrosion of

your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the

following cleaning instructions.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, muriatic acid,

cleaning waxes, concentrated

detergents, bleaches or cleansers

containing petroleum products on exterior surfaces (doors and

cabinet), plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not

use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
