Crisper Humidity Control

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW (open) and HIGH (closed).

LOW - Move control to the far left-hand side to allow moist air out of the crisper for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.

■Fruit: Wash, let dry and store in refrigerator in plastic bag or crisper. Do not wash or hull berries until they are ready to use. Sort and keep berries in original container in crisper, or store in a loosely closed paper bag on a refrigerator shelf.

■Vegetables with skins: Place in plastic bags or plastic container and store in crisper.

HIGH - Move control to the far right-hand side to keep moist air in the crisper for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.

■Leafy vegetables: Wash in cold water, drain and trim or tear off bruised and discolored areas. Place in plastic bag or plastic container and store in crisper.

Temperature-Controlled Drawer

IMPORTANT: This control sets the temperature for only this drawer. It does not set the temperature for, or turn off cooling to the refrigerator or freezer compartments.

The full-width, temperature-controlled drawer can be used to store large deli trays, fresh meat, beverages or other items that you want to store at an optimum temperature.

Depending on your model, you will have either an Electronic Control or a Manual Control. Use the directions specific to your model.

NOTE: Do not place leafy vegetables in the temperature- controlled drawer. The colder temperatures could damage leafy produce.

Style 1 - Electronic Control

For your convenience, temperatures have been preset for the optimum storage of fresh meat and poultry, cold drinks, and deli and cheese. These preset temperatures cannot be adjusted.

■Meats/Poultry - 32°F (0°C)

■Cold Drinks (default setting) - 36°F (2°C)

■Deli/Cheese - 39°F (4°C)

NOTE: If no button is pressed, the control will revert to Cold Drinks, the default setting.
