DELl DRAWER (SOME

MODELS)

Some models are equipped with a Dell Drawer for storage of luncheon meats, spreads, cheeses, and other dell items.

,,Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reduces the circulation of air around the food and results in uneven cooling.

Fruits and Vegetables

•Storage in the crisper drawers traps moisture to help preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer time periods.

Meat

,,Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and contamination of other foods or surfaces does not occur.

ENERGY SAVING IDEAS

,,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 door closes tightly.

CRISPERS (SOME

MODELS)

The crispers, located under the bottom refrigerator shelf, are designed for storing fruits, vegetables, and other fresh produce. Wash items in clear water and remove excess water before placing them in the crispers, items with strong odors or high moisture content should be wrapped before storing.
