Using the refrigerated shelves
Your freezer is equipped with refrigerated
interior shelves. Packages in direct contact
with the shelves will have the best refrigera-
tion. Fresh, unfrozen food packages should be
stored directly on the shelves and not on top of
already frozen food packages.
When placing the food packages in your
freezer, please remember:
• The cabinet shelves have the best freezing
capability. The door shelves and the bottom
of the cabinet have a slightly higher tempera-
ture. Therefore, packages sensitive to
temperature (meat, poultry, etc.) should not
be placed on the door shelves or the freezer
bottom.
•
Give the cold air a chance to completely
surround the packages.
