Food storage compartment
•Cool the refrigerator before placing any food inside. Never put hot food or drinks into the refrigerator - cool them first.
•The food storage compartment is completely closed and unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the required low temperature for food storage. Consequently, foods hav- ing a strong odor or those that absorb odors easily should be covered.
•Vegetables, salads etc. should be covered to retain their crispness.
•The coldest positions in the refrigerator are under the cool- ing fins and at the bottom of the refrigerator. The warmer ar- eas are on the upper door shelves. This should be considered when placing different types of food in the refrigerator.
•Arrange all food in the unit to allow for free air circulation. Do not overpack because a stuffed refrigerator must work harder and will have higher cabinet temperatures.
•Do not leave the unit’s door open any longer than necessary. This will reduce frost formation and increase the efficiency of the refrigerator.
Frozen food storage compartment
This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing of food.
•To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminum foil.
•Meat or fish, whether raw or prepared, can be stored in the frozen food storage compartment provided they are pre- cooled first in the refrigerator. They can be stored about three times longer in the frozen food compartment as com- pared to the fresh food compartment.
•Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in the coldest part of the compartment, which is at the bottom of the aluminum liner.
•Frozen vegetables, may be stored in any part of the compart- ment.
•To prevent frost buildup, which can reduce the efficiency, wipe excess moisture off items being placed in the compart- ment.
Ice cubes
Ice cubes can be made in the freezer compartment. For faster ice making, the trays should be placed in direct contact with the bottom of the freezer compartment.

Ice will be made more rapidly if f the thermostat is set at its highest position, but be sure to move the thermostat back
to normal setting when the ice is formed; the refrigerator might otherwise become too cold.
