Store similar foods together and adjust the shelves to fit different 
heights. This reduces the time the convertible refrigerator/freezer 
door is open and saves energy.

1. Remove the shelf by pulling it forward slightly to align the 

shelf stops with the openings in the convertible refrigerator/
freezer compartment liner. Lift straight up, and pull the shelf 
out the rest of the way.

2. Replace the shelf by lowering the shelf stops through the 

openings in the convertible refrigerator/freezer compartment 
liner. Slide the shelf in the rest of the way.

1. Slide drawer straight out to the stop. Lift the front of the 

drawer and slide it out the rest of the way.

2. Replace a drawer by sliding it back in fully past the stop.

1. Remove crisper(s). Hold the glass insert firmly with one hand 

and press up in the center of the glass insert until it rises 
above the plastic frame. Carefully slide the glass insert 
forward to remove.

2. Lift the cover frame and remove it. 

1. Fit the back of the cover frame into the supports on the side 

walls of the convertible refrigerator/freezer. Lower the front of 
the cover frame into place.

2. Slide the rear of the glass insert into the cover frame and 

lower the front into place.

The meat drawer can be placed on either the right or left side of 
the convertible refrigerator/freezer.

1. Remove the meat drawer and cover (see the “Shelves” 

section). 

NOTE: The meat drawer cover has one fixed support that runs 
down the center of the shelf. The outside support is the 
adjustable one. 

2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the adjustable support 

and move it to the other side of the meat drawer cover. 

3. Place the meat drawer cover in the desired location and slide 

the meat drawer back into position.

Store most meat in original wrapping as long as it is airtight and 
moisture-proof. Rewrap if necessary. See the following chart for 
storage times. When storing meat longer than the times given, 
freeze the meat.

Fresh fish or shellfish......................... use same day as purchased

Chicken, ground beef, variety meats (liver) ...................... 1-2 days

Cold cuts, steaks/roasts .................................................. 3-5 days

Cured meats................................................................... 7-10 days

Leftovers - Cover leftovers with plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or 
place in containers with tight fitting lids.

You can adjust the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed 
crisper using the settings between HIGH and LOW.

LOW (open) lets moist air out of the crisper for best storage of 
fruits and vegetables with skins. 

■

Fruit: Wash, let dry and store in convertible refrigerator/
freezer in plastic bag in crisper. Do not wash or hull berries 
until they are ready to use. Sort and keep berries in original 
container in crisper.

■

Vegetables with skins: Place in plastic bag or plastic 
container and store in crisper. 

HIGH (closed) keeps moist air in the crisper for best storage of 
fresh, leafy vegetables.

■

Leafy vegetables: Wash in cold water, drain and trim or tear 
off bruised and discolored areas. Place in plastic bag or 
plastic container and store in crisper.

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. 
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter 
into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass 
shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when 
removing them to avoid impact from dropping.
