Care and Maintenance
VACATION TIME
For short vacation periods, leave the control knob at the usual setting.
During longer absences;
a) remove all food.
b) disconnect from electrical outlet.
c) leave the door open to avoid possible formations of condensation,
mold, or odors.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two, and will not affect
your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number
times you open the door while the power is off. During power failures of
longer duration, take steps to protect your food, for example, by placing
dry ice on top of packages.
IF YOU MOVE
Remove, or securely fasten down, all loose items inside the refrigerator.
To avoid damaging the leveling legs, turn them all the way into the base.
Some Important Rules for the Correct Use of the Refrigerator
• Never place hot foods in the refrigerator
• Beverages should be stored in sealed containers
• Foods to be stored for a long time should be wrapped in cellophane or
polyethylene, or kept in glass containers. Never place spoiled food in
the refrigerator.
• Don't overload the refrigerator.
• Don't open the door unless necessary.
• Should the refrigerator be stored without use for long periods, it is
suggested, after careful cleaning, to leave the door ajar to allow the air
to circulate inside the unit in order to avoid the possible formations of
condensation, mold, or odors.
FOOD STORAGE SUGGESTIONS:
Fresh Food Compartment
• Never cover food compartment shelves with aluminum foil or any other
shelf covering material which may prevent air circulation.
• Always remove porous store wrapping paper from meats, poultry, and
fish. Meats should be wrapped individually and placed in a dish for
storage.Wrap fish and poultry in foil or heavy waxed paper. Most fish
should be used the same day of purchase. Packaged meats such as
ham, bacon, dried beef, or frankfurter, store best in their original
packages.
• Allow warm foods to cool to room temperature before placing them in
the refrigerator.
• Always cover open dishes of food, especially leftovers. Use leftovers
within 2 or 3 days.
VEGETABLE CRISPER
The tray at the bottom of the refrigerator is covered to retain moisture. The
crisper compartment will enable you to store vegetables and fruits which
would otherwise dry out rapidly. The humidity level inside the crisper draw-
er can be controlled by adjusting the "damper" control (white slider) locat-
ed on the front of the drawer.
