•  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.

•  Use the meat keeper drawer for short-

term storage. Any meat to be kept 

longer than two days should be frozen.

•  Keep the freezer compartment at 0°F or 

lower.

•  A freezer operates most efficiently when 

it is at least ⅔ full.

•  To minimize food dehydration and quality 

deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer 

wrap, freezer bags or airtight containers. 

Force as much air out of the packages 

as possible and seal them tightly. 

Trapped air can cause food to dry out, 

change color, and develop an off-flavor 

(freezer burn).

•  Wrap fresh meats and poultry with 

suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing.

•  Do not refreeze meat that has completely 

thawed.

•  Avoid adding too much warm food to 

the freezer at one time. This overloads 

the freezer, slows the rate of freezing, 

and can raise the temperature of frozen 

foods.

•  Leave a space between packages, so 

cold air can circulate freely, allowing food 

to freeze as quickly as possible.

•  Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods on the 

freezer door shelves. These foods are 

best stored in the freezer interior where 

the temperature varies less.

•  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 efficiently.

•  Level the refrigerator so that the doors 

close tightly.

•  Refer to the “Controls” section in this 

Use & Care Guide for procedures on 

temperature settings.

•  Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or 

blocking 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.
