Frozen Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals.

Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food per cubic foot

[907 to 1,360 g per 28 L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Leave enough room for the door to close tightly.

For more information on preparing food for freezing, check a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

Freezer Basket or Bin

(plastic bin on somemodels)

The freezer basket or bin can be used to store bags of frozen fruits and vegetables that may slide off freezer shelves.

To Remove and Replace the Freezer Basket or Bin:

1.Remove basket or bin by sliding it out to the stop.

2.Lift the front of the basket or bin and slide it out the rest of the way.

3.Replace the basket or bin by positioning it on the side wall guide rails. Lift the basket or bin front slightly while pushing it past the guide rail stops and slide basket or bin in the rest of the way.
