After adjusting the temperature controls, alIow24hours foriemPeratures to stabilize.

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

rhis moisture can be expected only when he weather is humid and ifyour kitchen is

lot air conditioned. The switch should be .efton the “normal” position to save power except when moisture does form. Remember to switch it back to normal when the weather is no longer humid.

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 cartons 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 youturn control tocoldest position for

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

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 vege-

tables 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 especiallyfor 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

carefulIy to the shape of the contents. This

expelsair. Fold and crimp ends of the pac age to provide a good, lasting seal. Don’t

refreeze meat that has completely thawed;

meat,whether raw orcooked, can be frozen successfully only once.

ICE CREAM STORAGE

Fine-quality ice cream, with high cream content, will normally require slightly low+ er temperatures than more “airy” alreadypacked brands with low cream content. It will be necessary to experiment to determine the exact setting to keep your favorite ice cream at the right serving temperature. Also, the rear of the freezer is slighd colder than the front.
