Storing Food

Food Preservation Location

Each compartment inside the refrigerator is designed to store different types of food.
Store your food in the optimal space to enjoy the freshest taste.
Vegetable storage
(Crisper)
Preserves vegetables
and fruit.
EasyReach™
You can store small
items, or put an item to
defrost.
®
Durabase
Largest storage space in
the freezer.
CAUTION
• Do not store food with high moisture content towards the top of the refrigerator. The moisture
could come in direct contact with the cold air and freeze.
• Wash food before storing it in the refrigerator. Vegetables and fruit 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 too often, warm air may penetrate the
refrigerator and raise its temperature. It can also increase the cost to run the appliance.
• 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.
• The temperature inside the EasyReach™ is slightly lower than in the shelf or door bin area.
NOTE
• If you are leaving home for a short period of time, 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 of time, remove all food
and unplug the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the door open to prevent fungi from
growing in the refrigerator.
