About ClimateKeeper2.
How it Works
The new ClimateKeeper2
is the industry’s
most advanced refrigeration system,
delivering optimum temperature and
humidity performance to keep food
garden fresh longer and reduce freezer
burn, while maintaining E star-level efficiency.
The new ClimateKeeper2 system features
two evaporators—one for the refrigerator
and one for the freezer.
This provides two separate cooling systems
for the entire unit, and separates the airflow
between the fresh food and freezer sections
during normal cooling operations.
This ensures that the humidity levels in the
fresh food section are significantly higher
than in a conventional system,* allowing
fresh produce and other unsealed foods to
retain their moisture content and freshness
longer. Moisture sensitive foods such as fresh
fruit, salads, rice, etc., can now be stored on
open shelves without excessive moisture loss.
Due to the higher humidity in the refrigerator,
you may on occasion experience fog or small
amounts of moisture in the refrigerator
compartment. This is normal and may
come and go as different food loads
and environmental conditions change.
Wipe dry with a paper towel if desired.
The separate airflow system minimizes
the mixing of air between the two
compartments, which reduces odor
transfer to improve the taste of ice.
The ClimateKeeper2 system also reduces
the number of defrosting cycles in the freezer
evaporator, thereby reducing freezer burn.
*Testing shows a higher level of humidity in
the Fresh Food section in ClimateKeeper2
refrigerators versus conventional units.
About CustomCool
. (on some models)
Empty the pan. Place the Chill/Thaw tray
in the pan. Place the items on the tray
and close the pan completely.
LCD Models:
Access by: Home > Options >
Refrigerator Options > CustomCool Pan
Non-LCD Models:
Select the ExpressThaw
, ExpressChill
or SelectTemp
pad. The display and SET
light will come on. Tap the pad until the
light appears next to the desired setting.
Use the following chart to determine the
best setting to use.
ExpressChill can be set to 15, 30 or 45
minutes. The default is 15 minutes.
To stop a feature before it is finished:
For LCD Models:
Go into that feature’s menu and press
the OFF button.
For Non-LCD Models:
Tap that feature’s pad until no options
are selected and the display is off.
During ExpressThaw and
ExpressChill,the display on the
controls will count down the time
in the cycle (on some models).
After the ExpressThaw cycle is
complete, the pan will reset to the
MEAT setting (32°F [0°C]) to help
preserve thawed items until they
are used.
The displayed actual temperature
of the CustomCool pan may vary
slightly from the SET temperature
based on usage and operating
environment.
NOTE: For food safety reasons, it is
recommended that foods be wrapped in
plastic wrap when using ExpressThaw.
This will help contain meat juices and improve
thawing performance.
