STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY Ideas for storing foods Refrigerator storage • Keep the refrigerator compartment between 34°F and 40°F with an optimum temperature of 37°F. • Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves, which reduces air circulation and causes uneven cooling. • Avoid placing food in front of air ports. (See CONTROLS AND SETTINGS for illustration.) Fruits and vegetables • Store fruits and vegetables in crispers, where trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for longer time periods.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS NOTE NOTE Energy efficient foam in your refrigerator is not a sound insulator. During the automatic defrost cycle, a red glow in the back wall vents of your freezer compartment is normal. Understanding the sounds you may hear Your new, high-efficiency refrigerator may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds normally indicate your refrigerator is operating correctly.
