Note

The cooling performance and power consumption of the refrigerator may be affected by ambient temperature, door-opening frequency, and the location of the refrigerator. We recommend adjusting the temperature settings as appropriate.

Temperature Instructions

Recommended Temperature

The optimal temperature setting for food storage:

• Fridge: 3 °C
• Freezer: -19 °C
• Meat and fish of Coolselect Zone: 0 °C (only for RB29****C** & RB31****C** model)
• Vegetable of Coolselect Zone: 3 °C (only for RB29****C** & RB31****C** model)

NOTE

The optimal temperature setting of each compartment depends on the ambient temperature. The above optimal temperature is based on an ambient temperature of 25 °C.

Power Freeze

Power Freeze speeds up the freezing process at maximum fan speed. The freezer keeps running at full speed for 50 hours and then returns to the previous temperature. To freeze large amounts of food, activate Power Freeze for at least 20 hours before putting food in the freezer.

NOTE

When you use this function, the energy consumption of the refrigerator will increase. Remember to turn it off when you don't need it and return the freezer to your original temperature setting.

How to store for best preservation (applicable models only)

Cover foods to retain moisture and prevent them from picking up odors from other foods. A large pot of food like soup or stew should be divided into small portions and put in shallow containers before being refrigerated. A large cut of meat or whole poultry should be divided into smaller pieces or placed in shallow containers before refrigerating.

Placement of Foods

Shelves Shelves should be adjustable to accommodate a variety of packages.
Specialized compartment(applicable models only)	Sealed crisper drawers provide an optimal storage environment for fruits and vegetables. Vegetables require higher humidity conditions while fruits require lower humidity conditions.Crispers are equipped with controls devices to control the humidity level.(*Depending on model and options) An adjustable temperature meat drawer maximizes the storage time of meats and cheeses.
Stored on the door	Don't store perishable foods in the door. Eggs should be stored in the carton on a shelf. The temperature of the storage bins in the door fluctuate more than the temperature in the cabinet. Keep the door closed as much as possible.
Freezer Compartment	You can store frozen food, make ice cubes and freeze fresh food in the freezer compartment.

NOTE

Freeze fresh, undamaged food only. Keep food which is to be frozen away from food which is already frozen. To prevent food from losing its flavor or drying out, place in airtight containers.
