STORING FOOD IN THE REFRIGERATOR

The Samsung Refrigerator has been designed to provide you with maximum space saving features and functions. Here are some of the customized compartments we have created to keep your food fresher longer. In order to further prevent odor from seeping into the ice compartment, stored food should be wrapped securely and as airtight as possible.

Moving Tray	Can be used to store small dairy items like butter or margarine, yogurt
	or cream cheese bricks	butter/cheese
Bottle Bin	Designed to handle large, bulky items such as gallons of milk or other
	large bottles and containers.
Fridge Shelves	Designed to be crack-resistant, the shelves can be used to store all
	types of food and drinks. Circular marks on the glass surface are a
	normal phenomenon and can usually be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Vegetable & Fruit	Used for preserving the freshness of your stored vegetables and fruits.
	This drawer has been specifically designed to control the level of
Drawers	humidity within the compartment. Keep vegetables and fruits separate
	when possible.

Do not place any large articles of food under the lamp in the Refrigerator. An air sensor is located near the lamp and if the sensor is blocked, your Refrigerator may become too cold. Please place Vegetable and Fruits in the Vegetable and Fruits Drawers to avoid freezing them. If the food in your Refrigerator becomes frozen, please set the temperature higher.

Freezer Drawer Bin Stored food should be placed in a container or wrapped securely using plastic wrap or other suitable wrapping materials.

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 a long time, empty the Refrigerator and turn it off. Wipe the excess moisture from the inside of the appliance and leave the doors open. This helps keep odor and mold from developing.
