FOOD STORAGE TIPS:

DO NOT place any large items of food under the lamp in the refrigerator. An air sensor is located near the lamp and if the sensor is blocked, the refrigerator may become too cold.

ALWAYS place vegetables and fruits in the vegetable and fruit crispers to avoid freezing.

If the food in the refrigerator becomes frozen, please set the temperature higher.

Bottles should be stored tightly together so that they do not tip and fall out when the refrigerator door is opened.

If you plan to go away for an extended period, empty the refrigerator and turn it OFF. Wipe excess moisture from the inside of the appliance and leave the doors open. This helps keep odor and mold from developing.

USING THE DOORS

The refrigerator and freezer doors have automatic door closers to ensure that the doors close and seal completely.

When a door is opened or closed to less than 3 inches, it will automatically close and seal. When a door is opened more than 3 inches, it will stay open until it is closed.
