Note: Turning the numbered control to
“OFF” turns off refrigeration in both the
Fresh Food and Freezer compartments.

GuideTo Proper Temperatures:
If a container of milk is too warm or too
cold to your taste after being on the top
shelf in the Fresh Food compartment for
a day, adjust the Cold Control Dials ac­cordingly.

If a gallon of ice cream remains firm to the
touch after being in the Freezer for a day,
the Cold Control Dials are at the proper
setting. If the ice cream’s firmness is not
to your liking, adjust the dials accordingly.

Check a day after resetting either dial to
make sure new setting is providingthe tem-

perature you desire.

POWER-SAVINGTIPS

● Don’t open doors more often than neces-

sary and close them as soon as possible,
particularly in hot, humid weather.

● Store only foods requiring refrigeration

in your refrigerator.
oWipe all moisture from bottles and car-

tons before putting them into refrigera­tor, and keep SUfoods covered to reduce
moisture build-up inside.

● Don’t waste ice cubes by letting many

melt while using a few.

● If you turn control to coldest position for

quick chiUing or freezing, don’t forget to
turn it back to normal setting.

a Don’tovercrowd your refrigerator—ove$­crowdirtgcan require extra electrical ener­gy to keep everything cool.

● Before leaving the house or retiring for

the night, check to be sure doors haven”t
been left ajar inadvertently.

● Don’t locate your refrigerator adjacent’

to your range, a heating vent or where sum
shine will strike it if any other kitchen a
rangement is possible.

FOOD-FREEZINGTIPS

There are three essential requirements for
efficient home freezing. First, of course, is
initial quality. Only top-quality foods
should be frozen. Freezing retains quality
and flavor; it cannot improve quality. Sec­ond is speed. The quicker fruits and vege­tables are frozen after picking, the better

thefrozen product willbe. You’llsave time,
too, because less culling and sorting will be

necessary. The third requirement is proper

packaging. Use food wraps designed espe­cially for freezing; they’re readily available

in a wide selection at your favorite store.
Limitfreezing of fresh (unfrozen] merrtsor
senfoods to 21pounds at a time.

TO FREEZE NIEAT, FISH, POULTRY

Wrap well in freezer-weight foil (or othe

heavy-duty wrapping material), forming it

ICE CREAM STORAGE

Fine-quality ice cream, with high cream

content, willnormally require slightly low+

er temperatures than more “airy” already-

packed brands with low cream content. It

will be necessary to experiment to deter-

mine the exact setting to keep your favor-

ite ice cream at the right serving tempera-

ture. Also, the rear of the freezer is slighd

colder than the front.

NO DEFROSTING

You never have to defrost the freezer.
