• The refrigerator should be kept between 34°-40° F (1°-4° C) with an
optimum temperature of 38° F (3.3° C). To check the temperature,
place an appliance thermometer in a glass of water and place in the
center of the refrigerator. Check after 24 hours. If the temperature is
above 40° F (4° C) adjust the control as explained on page 5.
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reduces the
circulation of air around the food and results in uneven cooling.

• Storage in the produce drawers traps humidity to help preserve the
fruit and vegetable quality for longer time periods (see page 11).
• Sort fruits and vegetables before storage and use bruised or soft
items first. Discard those showing signs of decay.
• Always wrap odorous foods such as onions and cabbage so the odor
does not transfer to other foods.
• While vegetables need a certain amount of humidity to remain fresh,
too much humidity can shorten storage times (especially leafy
vegetables). Drain vegetables well before storing.
• Wait to wash fresh produce until right before use.

• Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and
contamination of other foods or surfaces does not occur.
• Occasionally mold will develop on the surface of hard cheeses (Swiss,
Cheddar, Parmesan). Cut off at least an inch around and below the
moldy area. Keep your knife or instrument out of the mold itself. Do
not try to save individual cheese slices, soft cheese, cottage cheese,
cream, sour cream or yogurt when mold appears.

• Most dairy foods such as milk, yogurt, sour cream and cottage cheese
have freshness dates on their cartons for appropriate length of
storage. Store these foods in the original carton and refrigerate
immediately after purchasing and after each use.
