Crispers (some models)

The crispers, located under  the

Crisper Drawer

bottom refrigerator  shelf,  are
designed for storing fruits,
vegetables, and other fresh
produce. Wash items in clear
water and remove excess
water before  placing them in
the crispers. Items with strong
odors or high moisture content
should be wrapped before
storing.

Humidity Control (some models)

The Humidity Control, present on some models with crisper
drawers, allows you to adjust the humidity within the crisper.
This can extend the life of fresh vegetables that keep best in
high humidity.
