Storage Drawers - GE 19 Use And Care & Installation Manual

Fruit & Vegetable Drawers
The storage drawers at the bottom of the fresh food
compartment are designed to provide high humidity
levels required by most vegetables and lower
humidity levels required for most fruits.
When replacing the drawers, always push them all
the way in.
Storage time will depend upon the type of food and its
condition when placed in the drawers.
Excess water that may accumulate in the bottom of the
drawers should be emptied and the drawers wiped dry.
