Freezing
Your freezer will not quick-freeze any large quantity of
food. 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 [907-1,350 g per liter] of freezer space). Leave
enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around
packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so
the door can close tightly.
Storage times will vary according to the qual ity an d typ e of
food, the type of packaging or wrap used, (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 hav e
condensed, creating ice crystals.
NOTE: Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30
minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods
before freezing saves energy.

reduce the amount of time the refrigerator door is open,
and save energy.

supports on the back refrigerator wall.

is strong enough to hold up to 10 pounds (4.5 kg).
