GuideTo Proper Temperatures:
If acontainer of milk is too warm or too
cold to your taste after being on the top
shelf in the Fresh Food compartment for
aday, adjust the Cold Control Dials ac-
cordingly.
If agallon of icecream remains firm to the
touch after being in the Freezer for aday,
the Cold Control Dials are at the proper

to your liking, adjust the dials accordingly.

make sure new setting is providingthe tem-
perature you desire.
To freeze aquick supply of ice cubes or rr

1. Fmitandvegetablecrispsr -.
2. Convertiblememconditioner IL“”I+B3 There are three essential requirements for
efficient home freezing. First, of course, is
initial quality. Only top-quality foods
should be frozen. Freezing retains quality
and flavor; it cannot improve quality. Sec-
ond is speed. The quicker fruits and vege-
tables are frozen after picking, the better
thefrozen product willbe. You’llsave time,
too, because less culling and sorting will be
necessary. The third requirement is proper
packaging. Use food wraps designed espe-
ciallyfor freezing; they’re readily available
in awide selection at your favorite store.
