FoODSAVERTM STORAGE DRAWERS
The two lower drawers in the fresh food compartment are FoodSaver TM DrawerSettings
equipped with FoodSaver TM Technology. This technology 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 FoodSaver TM drawer is displayed electronically. Each setting
provides temperatures in the range outlined in the chart below.
Temperature Temperture
Selection Set Point Display Range*
Normal None The display is blank
Citrus 38°F (3°C) 37-39°F (3-4°C)
Produce 34°F (1°C) 33-35°F (1-2°C)
Meat 31°F (-1°C) 30-32°F (-1-0°C)
* 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
compartment to 0°F (-18°C).
Note: The Normal Cold setting turns off the FoodSaver TM
Technology.The drawer then operates as a standard crisper.

Select the MEAT setting is recommended when 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 wilt thaw very
slowly when stored in the FoodSaver TM drawer on the MEAT
setting.
Under heavy usage conditions, the exterior surfaces of
the FoodSaver TM 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 FoodSaver TM
temperature sensor system, drawer temperatures measured
with household thermometers may vary slightly from the digital
display.This is normal.
