Refrigerator Shelves

(number of shelves varies by model)
Store similar foods together and adjust the shelves to fit different heights.
This reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy.
To Remove and Replace a Shelf:
1. Pull the shelf forward to the stop. Tilt the front of the shelf up and lift it
slightly as you pull the shelf from the frame.
2. Replace the shelf by guiding it back into the slots on the frame and
pushing the shelf in past the stop.

Deli Drawer

(on some models)
The deli drawer stores raisins, nuts, spreads, and other small items at
normal refrigerator temperatures.
To Remove and Replace the Deli Drawer:
1. Remove the deli drawer by sliding it straight out to the stop. Lift the
front and slide the drawer out the rest of the way.
2. Replace the deli drawer by sliding it back past the stop.

Convertible Vegetable/Meat Drawer
Temperature Control
(on some models)
The convertible vegetable/meat drawer can be adjusted to properly chill
meats or vegetables. The air inside the pan is cooled to avoid "spot"
freezing and can be set to keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat
Board recommended storage temperatures of 28° to 32°F (­2° to 0°C).
IMPORTANT: To extend freshness, wrap meats in airtight, moisture-proof
materials before storing. Always store meat as recommended.
Adjusting the Control:
Move the control to the right (less cold) or to the left (colder) as
desired.
To store vegetables: Set the control to VEGETABLES (all the way to the
right) to store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures (which
need to be warmer than those for meat).
IMPORTANT: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the right (less
cold), toward the VEGETABLES setting. Remember to wait 24 hours
between adjustments. Doing so gives the temperature of the food time to
change.

proof. Rewrap if necessary. See the following chart for storage times.
