for a wide variety of foods that perish
quickly or mayspoil at room temperature,
but are too sensitive to be stored at normal
refrigerator temperatures.
The ideal mode for fresh, everyday foods.
This mode offers a higher relative humidity
than many other refrigerators allowing
fresh foods such as fruits and vegetables,
meats and cheeses to stay fresher for
longer.
Chill mode is an extension of Fridge mode,
providing the perfect storage zone for
highly perishable food to ensure they
retain their vital freshness and quality.
These items will last slightly longer here
compared with storage at ‘Fridge’ mode.
Note: Ensure these highly perishable items
are consumed within their recommended
storage times.

temperature increases the rate of deterioration and can allow harmfulmicrobialgrowth.
z
Foods such as meat, poultry and seafood should be well wrapped or sealed in
suitablepackaging to prevent dehydration, color deterioration, loss of flavor, and transfer
ofodor.
Note: We recommend storing these foods on the bottom shelf of your appliance
orinone of the bins to prevent potential spills and cross-contamination with
otherfoods.
z
Ensure hot foods and beverages are cooled sufficiently before placing them into
theappliance. Hot items may cause other foods to warm to unsafe temperatures.

Ensure raw and cooked foods are stored separately to avoid cross-contamination.
z
Consume food items within the recommended storage times. Discard foods that
showsign of spoilage.
z
Keep door openings to a minimum to maintain optimum storage temperatures inside
your appliance.
z
We recommend using MAX COOL or FAST FREEZE when you are adding food items toyour
appliance, such as after grocery shopping. This feature will ensure the food ischilled/
frozen within the shortest period of time, locking in the freshness andextending the shelf
life of your food.
z
Storing at temperatures other than the recommended settings may impact the storage
life.
z
For common foodstuffs, factory default setting provides the optimum setting for
foodcare.
Items stored in your refrigerator
z
Dairy items such as butter and cheeses should be stored in the covered door shelf
tominimize any transfer of odor or odor absorption from other foods.
z
Eggs should be stored in their carton to avoid absorption of strong odors through
theirporous shell structure.
Items stored in your freezer
We recommended cooling carbonated beverages only when the
BOTTLE CHILL function
isactive.
Note: Do not store carbonated drinks without this function in the freezer.
Failure toremove beverages could lead to freezing liquid and the likelihood ofbottle/
canexplosion.
z
Ensure air is removed from packaging to avoid large formation of ice crystals and
prevent freezer burn.
z
To maintain freshness and quality, we recommend defrosting foods in the refrigerator.
Ensure partially or fully defrosted foods are never re-frozen—cook immediately.
