FREEZER FEATURES

Freezer Shelf

To remove and replace the shelf:

1. Remove the shelf by lifting it up and pulling it straight out.

2. Replace the shelf by putting it over the supports and lowering

it into place.

Frozen Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food,
the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and
moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside
a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in
the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice
crystals.

Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within
24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs. of food per cubic foot
[907-1,350 g per 28 L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in
the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to
leave enough room for the door to close tightly.

For more information on preparing food for freezing, check a
freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

Freezer Basket

The freezer basket can be used to store bags of frozen fruits and
vegetables that may slide off freezer shelves.

To remove and replace the freezer basket:

1. Pull the basket straight out to the stop.

2. Lift the front of the basket and slide it out the rest of the way.

3. Replace the basket by positioning it on the side wall guide

rails. Lift the basket front slightly while pushing it past the
guide rail stops and slide basket in the rest of the way.
