CLIMATEZONE™ STORAGE DRAWERS
The two lower drawers in the fresh food
compartment are equipped with
ClimateZone™ Technology. This tech-
nology allows the temperature within
each drawer to be tightly controlled for
storing meats, fresh produce or citrus.
The electronic temperature control
within these drawers provides preset
temperatures, based on the food group
that is selected. The actual temperature
within each ClimateZone™ drawer is dis-
played electronically. Each setting provides
temperatures in the range outlined in the
chart below.
Note:
The Normal Cold setting turns off the
ClimateZone™Technology.The drawer
then operates as a standard crisper.
*Varying factors such as environment,
drawer openings, refrigerator control
settings, etc. may cause the temperature
display on the drawer to fluctuate
outside the range of temperatures listed
above. This is normal. For best results,
set the fresh food compartment to
37 ° F (3° C) and the freezer compart-
ment to 0° F (-18° C).

ClimateZone™ Drawer Settings
The MEATS setting is recommended
whenever storing fresh meat, poultry and
fish. Store meats in airtight containers or
sealed bags to contain any juices. Clean up
spills immediately, then disinfect.
Select the PRODUCE setting when
storing a mixed load of fresh fruits and
vegetables, such as:
Apples Broccoli
Green onions Asparagus
Nectarines Kiwi fruit
Radishes Spinach
Cabbage Celery
Romaine Leeks
Carrots Cherries
Herbs Lettuce
Strawberries bagged, pre-cut
Cauliflower salads and
Peaches vegetables
Select the CITRUS setting when storing
fruits such as oranges, grapefruit, lemons,
limes, pineapple, cranberries, watermelons
and tangerines.
Fruits and vegetables can be stored
loosely wrapped or unwrapped.
Fruits with skins such as apples and grapes
should not be stored in airtight bags or
containers.
Notes:
• After prolonged or repeated drawer
openings and/or loading the drawers,
the displayed temperature may rise.
This is normal.The temperature will
recover in a short period of time.
•When meat is being refrigerated for
the purpose of thawing, it should be
stored in a pan with sides or a sealed
bag or container, on a refrigerator
shelf. Frozen meats will thaw very
slowly when stored in the
ClimateZone™ drawer on the
“Meats” setting.
• Under heavy usage conditions, the
exterior surfaces of the Climate-
Zone™ drawers may fog. This is
normal. The condensation will clear
once the door is closed for a period
of time.
• Due to the accuracy and the location
of the ClimateZone™ temperature
sensor system, drawer temperatures
measured with household ther-
mometers may vary slightly from the
digital display.This is normal.
