Fresh food features
The fresh food compartment is designed to keep your food as fresh, nutritious and flavorsome
as possible.
Fruit and vegetable storage
Fruit and vegetables stored in the normal refrigerator environment will lose moisture very
quickly to the cold, dry air. This decreases their storage life as they will lose moisture and
shrivel very quickly, The fruit and vegetable storage bin provides an environment in which you
control the humidity. By controlling the humidity in the bin, the air is kept moist, and fruit and
vegetables retain significantly more moisture. This increases their storage life, keeping them
fresher for longer.
Fruit and vegetables have slightly different humidity/storage requirements, so the storage
bin has an adjustable humidity slide with three settings. Fruit requires lower humidity storage
compared with vegetables.

Operating instructions
To start ice making
Confirm ice storage bin is securely in place.
Lower the wire arm inside the ice bin gently.
Once the freezer compartment has reached O°F (d 8°C), the
ice maker will fill with water.
Approximately three to six hours after installation the first
batch of ice will be produced.
After the initial ice batch is made, a complete batch will be
made every two to three hours.
Discard ice made in the first 12 hours of operation.
The ice maker will continue to make ice until the ice level
raises the wire arm, and stops production.
To stop ice production

Ice making information
The first two batches of ice may contain small or irregular cubes, due to air in the supply line.
After cubes are made, it is normal for a few cubes to be joined together. They can easily be
broken apart.
If the ice is not used frequently the cubes may become cloudy, small, stick together, and
taste stale. Empty and wash the bin in lukewarm water periodically. Dry it thoroughly before
replacing it.
The ice maker may make a few sounds during its operation. Clicking, rattling, and buzzing are
all normal.
Do not store anything in the ice bin except ice made in the ice maker,

Food storage tips - efdgerato
Red meat
Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper,
plastic wrap or foil.
Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any
juices lost from raw meat contaminating cooked meat.
Poultry
Fresh whole birds should be dnsed inside and out with cold running
water, dded, placed on a plate and covered.
Poultry pieces should also be stored this way. Whole poultry should
never be stuffed until lust before cooking, otherwise food poisoning
may result.
Cool and refrigerate cooked poultry quickly. Remove stuffing from
poultry and store separately.
Fish and seafood
o Whole fish and fillets, should be used on the day of purchase.
Refrigerate on a plate loosely covered until required.
If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to select very fresh
fish. Whole fish should be dnsed in cold water to remove loose scales
and dirt and then patted dry with paper towels. Place whole fish or
fillets in a sealed plastic bag.
Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within one to two days.
Precooked foods and leftovers
These should be stored in covered containers, so the food does not
dry out.
Keep for on ly one to two days.
Reheat leftovers only once and until steaming hot

Although most fruit and vegetables store best at low temperatures,
take care not to store citrus fluid tropical fruit, tomatoes or cucumbers
at temperatures less than 47°F (7°C) for long periods.
Undesirable changes, such as softening of the flesh, browning,
accelerated decaying and loss of flavor will occur at low temperatures.
Do not refrigerate avocados (until they are dpe), bananas, mangoes or
pepinos.
For more information on storing fruit and vegetables refer to page 14.

Food storage tips - freezer
Freezingfood at O°F(-18°0 reduces microbial activity, and chemical and physical reactions. This
allows food to be keptfor considerably longer than when stored in the refrigerator.
Frozen food care
For best results:
Choose only good quality foods that freeze well
Store at O°F(--ld'C) or colder. Take care to maintain this low storage /
temperature, eg try to avoid opening the freezer door unnecessarily.
If your ice cream is soft you are running your freezer too warm.
Leave space at the top of containers, glass jars and plastic bags containing liquids or semi--
solid foods. These expand as they freeze. Usually 1" (20- 50 ram) head space is recommended.
Ideally, remove all the air from the package after the food has frozem
Packages or containers of solid foods should have the air removed from them and be sealed
tightly before freezing.
Freeze immediately and as quickly as possible. Freeze only small quantities of food at any one
time. For best results we recommend that only 2.2 Ib (1 kg) of food be frozen per 0.9 cu.ft (2S L)
of freezer storage volume at any one time.
Keep a constant turnover of food. Use older items of food first. Do not exceed recommended
storage times.
Use good quality freezer proof packaging to maintain food quality.
Thaw foods preferably in a refrigerator, or using a microwave oven or mukifunction oven.
Recommended freezer storage times
Thesetimes should not be exceeded.
1 Bacon, casseroles, milk
2 Bread ice<ream, sausages pies - (meat and fruit), prepared shellfish, oily fish
3 Non oily fish, shellfish, pizza, scones and muffins
4 Ham, cakes, bisc@ts, beef and lamb chops, poultry pieces
Butter, vegetables (blanched), eggs whole and yolks, cooked crayfish,
6
minced meat (raw), pork (raw)
12 Fruit (dry or in syrup), egg whites, beef (raw), whole chicken, lamb (raw), fruit cakes
Food storage tips - freezer
Meat, poultry and game
Meat should be frozen quickly in order to maintain its texture.
Do not stuff poultry before freezing,
Always thaw poultry completdy before cooking,
Red meat can be cooked from frozen, or from partly or completdy
thawed states. Remember to allow extra cooking time if cooking from
frozen.
Fish
Fish is best frozen commercially. If however you do want to freeze fish
at home, make sure the fish is very fresh and of high quality.
Clean, scale and preferably leave whole. All fish should be wrapped in
two layers of packaging, as depending on the type offish, odors and
flavors can be readily transferred either to or from it, Seal well
For best results, cook from either the frozen or partly thawed state.
Most vegetables freeze well, although 'salad' vegetables lose their
crispness, Other vegetables, eg celery, onion and tomatoes, should
only be used in cooked dishes as they soften on freezing,
Freeze only good quality, mature, ready--to--eat vegetables,
It is necessary to blanch most raw vegetaMes prior to freezing°
o Blanching is a short cooking period during which vegetable enzymes
are destroyed, If these enzymes are not destroyed they cause
undesirable physical and chemical changes during freezer storage,
Vegetables can be blanched in boiling water, steam, or in a microwave
oven, If using boiling water, boil vegetables for 2 - 4 minutes and cool
quickly.
In general frozen vegetables are best cooked from their frozen state.
Prepared and cooked foods
Most cooked foods can be frozen, but it is not recommended to freeze
the following (as they tend to separate on thawing):
Cooked egg white, custards, cream fillings and milk puddings, gelatin
or)el[y--like dishes, mayonnaise and similar salad dressings and
meringue toppings,
Fruit
Choose good quality, mature, and ready to eat fruit, Preferably select
varieties recommended for freezing,
Avoid unripe and over--ripe fruit,
The way fruit is packed depends on how it is to be used, Fruits packed
in syrup are ideal for desserts, whereas fruits packed without sugar are
better used for cooking,

Energy saving tips
There are many simple things that can be done to save energy.
During installation
Locate refrigerator in coolest part of room. Avoid areas of direct sunlight, or near heating ducts,
registers, or other heat producing appliances. If this is not possible, isolate exterior by using a
section of cabinet or an added layer of insulation.
Be sure the doors are dosing securely by leveling refrigerator.
During Use
Avoid overcrowding shelves, as this reduces airflow.
Do not use any material (such aluminium foil, wax paper, or paper toweling) as a shelf liner, this
reduces air flow.
Avoid adding too much warm food all at once, this reduces coning power.
Your refrigerator is most efficient when two thirds full.
Organize items in your refrigerator to reduce the time that the door is open.
Maintenance
Clean door gaskets every three months (see page 26).
Clean condenser coils (see page 26).

dispensing as the internal tanks fills.
Restart the ice maker by Iowedng the ice maker arm.
Discard ice produced within the first 12 hours.
Operating sounds
Improvements in refrigeration design may mean your new refrigerator produces sounds that
are different to other models. These improvements have created a refrigerator that is better at
preserving food, more energy efficient, and quieter overall Because new units are quieter, sounds
may be detected that were masked by higher sound levels in older units. Many of these sounds
are normal. Please note that the surfaces adjacent to a refrigerator, such as hard walls, floors
and cabinetry may make these sounds seem even louder. The following are some of the normal
operational sounds that may be noticed in your new refrigerator.
