•   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.

•   Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where 

trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for 
longer time periods.

•   Wrap raw meat and poultry securely so leakage and 

contamination of other foods or surfaces does not 
occur.

•   Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the 

room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating 
ducts or registers. Do not place the refrigerator next 
to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, 
or dishwasher. If this is not possible,

 

a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation 
between the two appliances will help the refrigerator 
operate more effi ciently.

•   Level refrigerator so that the door closes tightly.
•   Refer to the “SETTING THE TEMPERATURE 

CONTROL” section for the suggested temperature 
control settings.

•   Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air 

vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer 
and use more energy.

•   Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing 

them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture 
build-up inside the unit.

•   Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. 

Remove as many items as needed at one time and 
close the door as soon as possible.

•   Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of 

less than three weeks.

If the refrigerator will not be used for several months:
•   Remove all food and unplug the power cord.
•   Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
•   Leave the refrigerator door open slightly, blocking it 

open if necessary, to prevent odor and mold growth.

•   Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall 

outlet.

•   Remove foods, then defrost, and clean the 

refrigerator.

•   Secure all loose items such as base panel, baskets, 

and shelves by taping them securely in place to 
prevent damage.

•   In the moving vehicle, secure refrigerator in an 

upright position to prevent movement. Also protect 
outside of refrigerator with a blanket, or similar 
item.

Keep your refrigerator clean to prevent odor build-up. 
Wipe up any spills immediately and clean at least twice a 
year.  Never use metallic scouring pads,
brushes, abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions 
on any surface.  Do not wash any removable parts in a 
dishwasher.  Always unplug the electrical power.
