USING YOUR FREEZER

Using the refrigerated shelves (on some models)

Your freezer is equipped with refrigerated interior shelves. Packages in direct contact with the shelves will have the best refrigera- tion. Fresh, unfrozen food packages should be stored directly on the shelves and not on top of already frozen food packages.

When placing the food packages in your freezer, please remember:

The cabinet shelves have the best freezing capability. The door shelves and the bottom of the cabinet have a slightly higher tempera- ture. Therefore, packages sensitive to temperature (meat, poultry, etc.) should not be placed on the door shelves or the freezer bottom.

Give the cold air a chance to completely surround the packages.
