The convertible vegetable/meat drawer can be adjusted to
properly chill meats or vegetables. The air inside the pan is
cooled to
avoid
"spot"
freezing and can be set to keep meats at
the National Livestock and Meat Board recommended storage
temperatures of 28 ° to 32°F (-2 ° to 0°C).
IMPORTANT: To extend freshness, wrap meats in airtight,
moisture-proof materials before storing. Always store meat as
recommended.
Adjusting the Control:
To change a control setting: Move the control to the right (less
cold) or to the left (colder) as desired.
ConvertibleControl
Meat/VegTemperature
To store vegetables: Set the control to VEG (all the way to the
right) to store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures
(which need to be warmer than those for meat).
IMPORTANT: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the
right (less cold), toward the VEG setting. Remember to wait
24 hours between adjustments. Doing so gives the temperature
of the food time to change.

and moisture-proof. Rewrap if necessary. See the following
chart for storage times. When storing meat longer than the
times given, freeze the meat.
