Refrigerator compartment

U
R e f r i g e r a t o r c o m p a r t m e n t
T he refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing
dairy products, eggs, cooked meals, pastries, preserves
once opened, and hard cheese.
The temperature can be set to anywhere between
36°F and 43°F (+2°C and +6°C).
The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store
highly perishable groceries in the short to medium term.
A temperature of +39°F (+4°C) or lower ensures
optimum freshness and hygiene of the stored groceries.

Note when storing food

Store fresh, undamaged food.
▯
The quality and freshness will then be retained for
longer.
▯ In the case of convenience products and bottled
goods, do not exceed the minimum sell-by date or use-
by date specified by the manufacturer.
To retain aroma, color and freshness, pack or cover
▯
food well before placing it into the appliance.
This will prevent flavors being transferred between
foods and the plastic parts from becoming discolored.
Leave warm food and drinks to cool down before
▯
placing them into the refrigerator compartment.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone is on the partition and in the storage
area for large bottles.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Notes
Store items such as hard cheese and butter in the
▯
warmest zone. Cheese can then continue to release
its flavor, and butter will remain spreadable.
Store delicate foods such as fish, sausages, and meat
▯
in the cool-fresh compartment. ~ "Cool-fresh

T
C o o l - f r e s h c o m p a r t m e n t
T he temperature in the cool-fresh compartment is kept at
around 32°F (0°C).
The low temperature and the optimum moisture provide
ideal storage conditions for fresh food.
With cool-fresh storage, you can keep fresh foodstuffs
fresh for up to three times longer than in the refrigerator
compartment – for even longer freshness and nutrient
retention, and improved flavor.

for fresh fruit and vegetables. You can adjust the humidity
in the vegetable container via the division plate's humidity

and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g.
eggplant, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes
and potatoes) should be stored outside of the
appliance at temperatures of approx. +46°F ... +54°F
(+8°C ... +12°C) for optimum preservation of quality
and aroma.
