You can easily adjust shelf positions in the fresh food compartments to suit your needs. Doors Storage bins The doors to your fresh food compartment use a system of modular storage bins.
STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY Ideas for storing foods Fresh food storage • Keep the fresh food compartment between 34°F and 40°F with an optimum temperature of 37°F. • Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves, which reduces air circulation and causes uneven cooling. • Avoid placing food in front of air ports. (See Controls Section for illustration.) Fruits and vegetables • Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for longer time periods.
CARE & CLEANING Protecting your investment Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains its appearance and prevents odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean the freezer and fresh food compartments at least twice a year. NOTE Do not use abrasive cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors, gaskets, or cabinet liners.
