Door Ajar Alarm
The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the refrigerator or freezer door is open for 5 minutes and the product cooling is turned on. The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes.

Exterior Refrigerator Drawer
The refrigerator drawer holds more fresh food in more ways than ever before, and is ideal for storing popular food items that need to be readily accessible. In addition, the drawer’s location allows children to serve themselves from the refrigerator.
Use the full-width drawer to store large party platters or deli trays, or use a drawer organizer to store smaller items such as yogurt, juice boxes and lunch meat within easy access.
