Storing frozen food

The freezer section is designed for storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing food at home.

NOTE: For further information about prepar- ing food for freezing or food storage times, contact your local Cooperative Extension Service or check a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

Packaging

The secret of successful freezing is in the packaging. The way you close and seal the package must not allow air or moisture in or out. Packaging done in any other way could cause food odor and taste transfer through- out the refrigerator and drying of frozen food.

Packaging recommended for use:

l Rigid plastic containers with tight-fitting lids l Straight-sided canning/freezing jars

l Heavy-duty aluminum foil l Plastic-coated paper

l Non-permeable plastic wraps (made from a Saran film)

Follow package or container instructions for proper freezing methods.

Do not use:

l Bread wrappers

l Non-polyethylene plastic containers l Containers without tight lids

l Waxed paper

l Waxed-coated freezer wrap l Thin, semi-permeable wrap

The use of these wrappings could cause food odor, taste transfer and drying of frozen food.

Freezing

Do not expect your freezer to quick-freeze any large quantity of food. Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 pounds of food per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so the door can close tightly.

Storage times will vary according to the

quality of the food, the type of packaging or wrap used (airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage temperature, which should be 0°F (-17.8%).

ED22DF specifications

The Whirlpool ED22DF is a popular side-by-side refrigerator that combines efficiency with advanced technology, catering to consumers seeking reliable storage solutions for their food and beverages. This model is renowned for its sleek design and user-friendly features, making it a practical choice for households of all sizes.

One of the main features of the Whirlpool ED22DF is its ample storage capacity. With a total volume of approximately 21.5 cubic feet, the refrigerator provides sufficient space for groceries, leftovers, and beverages. The side-by-side configuration allows easy access to both fresh and frozen items, making it convenient to organize and retrieve food without having to bend down or rummage through multiple compartments.

The refrigerator includes adjustable shelves, which offer flexibility in organizing items of various heights. The presence of spill-proof shelves ensures easy cleaning, as they contain spills and prevent liquids from dripping onto lower shelves. Additionally, gallon door bins provide extra space for large beverage containers, maximizing storage efficiency.

In terms of technology, the Whirlpool ED22DF is equipped with adaptive defrost, which senses ice buildup and automatically initiates a defrost cycle when necessary. This feature helps maintain optimal performance by preventing excessive frost accumulation in the freezer compartment. Moreover, the refrigerator is designed with an energy-efficient cooling system that ensures consistent temperatures while minimizing energy consumption.

Another notable characteristic is the presence of an exterior water and ice dispenser. This feature allows users to enjoy chilled water and ice cubes without having to open the refrigerator door, which promotes energy efficiency by reducing cold air loss. The dispenser is also equipped with a filtration system that improves water quality by reducing contaminants.

The Whirlpool ED22DF emphasizes durability and performance. Its stainless steel exterior not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but is also resistant to fingerprints and smudges, making maintenance easier. Furthermore, the appliance is backed by a solid warranty, reflecting Whirlpool's commitment to quality.

In summary, the Whirlpool ED22DF combines style, functionality, and advanced features in a side-by-side refrigerator. Its spacious design, adaptive defrost technology, energy efficiency, and convenient water and ice dispenser make it a worthwhile investment for those seeking reliable refrigeration solutions.
