Tips for storing vegetables

■ Types of food recommended to be kept at room temperature

● We recommend that the following types of food be kept in a cool location away from direct sunlight: garlic, onion, potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash,

and whole (uncut) pumpkins.

■ Risk of damage due to low temperatures

Some foods might change color or lose ﬂavor if stored in the vegetable compartment for an extended period of time. Other types of food might lose their vitamin C content, grow mold, or spoil.

VEGETABLE COMPARTMENT

● Vegetables: Tomatoes, green pepper, cucumber, eggplants,

green beans, sweet potatoes, okra, etc.

Request

Notice

● If the vegetable compartment contains only a few items, it might not be able to maintain a high level of moisture. In such cases,

wrap the items to be stored, in plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.

● The moisture level of the vegetable compartment is relatively high. As such, depending on the amount and types of vegetables

stored in the compartment, moisture might condense on the surface on items stored in the compartment. If you are concern about moisture condensing on the surface of foods, wrap foods in plastic wrap before storing them in this compartment.

● If the moisture-retention unit is blocked (for example, by food in containers or bags), moisture is more likely to condense. Be sure

to store food in a way that do

● Water accumulating in the container might cause food to spoil faster. Use a sponge or dishcloth to wipe up any water that

accumulates.

● Dried food (rice, laver, etc.) stored in the vegetable compartment might absorb moisture. To prevent this, put the dried food in a
