Storing Food Depending on the model, some of the following functions may not be available. Each compartment inside the refrigerator is designed to store different types of food. Store food in the optimal space to enjoy the freshest taste. CAUTION ••Do not overfill or pack items too tightly into door bins. Doing so may cause damage to the bin or personal injury if items are removed with excessive force. ••Do not store glass containers in the freezer. Contents may expand when frozen, break the container and cause injury. NOTE ••If you are leaving home for a short period, like a short vacation, the refrigerator should be left on. Refrigerated foods that are able to be frozen will stay preserved longer if stored in the freezer. ••If you are leaving the refrigerator turned off for an extended period, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the doors open to prevent fungi from growing in the refrigerator. ••Do not store food with high moisture content towards the top of the refrigerator. The moisture could come into direct contact with the cold air and freeze. ••Wash food before storing it in the refrigerator. Vegetables should be washed, and food packaging should be wiped down to prevent adjacent foods from being contaminated. ••If the refrigerator is kept in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the door or storing a lot of vegetables in the refrigerator may cause condensation to form. Wipe off the condensation with a clean cloth or a paper towel. ••If the refrigerator door or freezer drawer is opened or closed too often, warm air may penetrate the refrigerator and raise its temperature. This can increase the running costs of the unit. OPERATION 31 Food Storage Tips Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness.
