Convertible V egetable/Meat Drawer T emperature Control
The convertible vegetable/meat drawer can be adju sted t o
properly chill meats or vegetables. Unlike most chilled
meat drawer systems, the Temperature Control cools the
air inside the pan. (Most systems chill only the p an itself,
which doesn’t cool the air inside the pan evenly).
Chilling the air inside the pan provides more even cooling
and reduces “spot” freezing. The Temperature Control can
be set to keep meats at the recommended storage
temperatures (28°F-32°F are the recommended storage
temperatures from the National Livestock and Meat
Board).
To store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures
(which need to be warmer than those for meat), set the
control at the Vegetable setting, all the way to the left.
IMPORTANT: To extend freshness even more, remember
to wrap meats in airtight, moisture-proof materials before
storing. Always store meat as recommended by the
National Livestock and Meat Board. See “Storing Fresh
Food” in the “Food Storage Guide” section for more
information.

Adjusting the control

The convertible control comes preset for yo u a t th e l owest
meat setting. Move it to the mid-setting or “colder” as
desired.
To change a contr o l setti ng: Move the control to the right
(colder) or to the left (less cold).
To store vegetables: Move the control all the way to the
left to the VEG setting.
IMPORTANT: If food starts to freeze, move the control to
the left (less cold). Remember to wait 24 hours between
adjustments. Doing so gives th e temperature of the food
time to change.

Crisper Humidity Control
You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-
sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between
LOW and HIGH.

storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.
■HIGH (closed) keeps moist air in the crisper for best
