Refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage
location for meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs,
ready meals and pastries.

Storing food

Store fresh, undamaged food. The quality and
Ø
freshness will then be retained for longer.
In the case of ready-made products and bottled
Ø
goods, observe the best-before date or use-by date
specified by the manufacturer.
To retain aroma, colour and freshness, pack or
Ø
cover food well before placing in the appliance.
This will prevent the transfer of flavours and the
discolouration of plastic parts in the refrigerator
compartment.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
Ø
placing in the appliance.
Note:
Avoid contact between food and rear panel. Otherwise
the air circulation will be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to the rear panel.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones:
Coldest zone is between the vegetable container
Ø
and the glass shelf situated above.
Note:
Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat) in
the coldest zone above the vegetable container.
Warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Ø
Note:
Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest
zone. Cheese can then continue to release its
flavour and the butter will still be easy to spread.

Fruit and vegetables crisper

The crisper, mounted on telescopic extension slides,
is for storing vegetables and fruit.
When you remove the crisper pull it forwards and lift off
the sliders. Remember to remove all food first.
Once you have removed the crisper, ensure the slides
are pushed back fully.
Notes
Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana,
Ø
papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive
to cold (e.g. aubergines, cucumbers, zucchini,
peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored
outside the refrigerator at temperatures of approx.
+8 °C to +12 °C for optimum preservation of quality
and flavour.
Condensation may form in the vegetable container
Ø
depending on the type and quantity of products
stored. Remove condensation with a dry cloth.

Super cooling

Super cooling sets the refrigerator temperature to the
coldest temperature setting.
Switch on super cooling mode, e.g.
