• Avoid buying foods whose packages are
covered with ice etc. This means that the
product could be partially defrosted and
refrozen. Temperature impacts the qual-
ity of the food.
• Do not excess the storing time recom-
mended by the food producer. Remove
only the food as much as you need from
the freezer.
• Except the cases where extreme circum-
stances are available in the environment,
if your product (on the recommended set
values table) is set to the specified set
values, the food keep their freshness for
a longer time both in the fresh product
compartment and freezer compartment.
• If fresh food compartment is set to a
lower temperature, fresh fruits and veget-
ables may be partially frozen.
Freezer Details
As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer
must have the capacity to freeze 4.5 kg of
food items at -18 °C or lower temperatures
at 25 °C room temperature in 24 hours for
each 100 litres of freezer compartment
volume.
Food products can only be preserved for
extended periods at or below temperature
of -18 °C.
You can keep the foods fresh for months
(in freezer at or below temperatures of -18
°C).
The food products to be frozen must not
contact the already-frozen food inside to
avoid partial defrosting.
Boil the vegetables and filter the water to
extend the frozen storage time. Place the
food in air-tight packages after filtering and
place in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes,
lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes and
similar food items should not be frozen. In
case these foods are frozen, only nutri-
tional values and eating qualities will be
negatively affected. A rotting that would
threaten human health is not in question.
Placing The Food
Freezer compartment shelves: Different
frozen foods like meat, fish, ice cream, ve-
getables etc.
Cooler compartment shelves: Food items
inside pots, capped plate and capped
cases, eggs (in closed case)
Cooler compartment door shelves: Small
and packaged food or beverages
Crisper: Vegetables and fruits
Fresh food compartment: Delicatessen
(breakfast food, meat products to be con-
sumed in short time)
7.3 Crisper Technologies
Blue Light
Fruits and vegetables stored in the crispers
that are illuminated with a blue light con-
tinue their photosynthesis by means of the
wavelength effect of blue light and thus
preserve their vitamin content.
VitaminZone
Fruits and vegetables stored in crispers illu-
minated with theVitaminZone technology
preserve their vitamins for a longer time
thanks to the blue, green, red lights and
dark cycles, which simulate a day cycle.
When the door of your refrigerator is
opened during the dark period of theVitam-
inZone technology, your refrigerator shall
sense this automatically and illuminate the
crisper with one of the blue, green or red
lights respectively for your convenience.
After you have closed the door of the refri-
gerator, the dark period will continue, rep-
resenting the night time in a day cycle.
7.4 Dairy Products Cold Storage
Area
Cold Storage Drawer
The Cold Storage Drawer can reach lower
temperatures in the cooler compartment.
Use this drawer for delicatessen products
(salami, sausage, etc.) and dairy products
that require colder storage conditions, or
