-
Leave space between goods to ensure good air circula‐
-
tion.
Store food according to the instructions on the pack‐
-
aging.
Always observe the best-before date indicated on the
-
packaging.
Note
Failure to follow these guidelines can lead to foodstuffs
spoiling.
5.2 Fridge compartment
The air circulation in the appliance creates different temper‐
ature zones. You will find the different temperature zones in
the appliance and equipment overview. (see 1.2 Overview of
the appliance and equipment)
5.2.1 Arranging your food properly
u Upper area and door: Store butter, cheese, tinned food
and tubes.
u Coldest temperature zone: Store perishable foods such
as pre-cooked meals, meat and lunch meats.
u Bottom shelf: Store raw meat or fish.
5.3 KeepFresh
KeepFresh is great for non-packaged foods, such as fruit
and vegetables.
The humidity in the compartment depends on the moisture
content of the chilled goods placed in it, and also depends
on how often the compartment is opened. You can regulate
the humidity level. (see 8.7 Adjusting the moisture levels)
5.3.1 Arranging your food properly
u Store unpackaged fruit and vegetables.
If the humidity is too high:
u Regulate the humidity. (see 8.7 Adjusting the moisture
levels)
5.4 ****-freezer compartment
Here, a dry, frosty storage climate is created at -18 °C. The
frosty storage climate is suitable for storing frozen food for
several months, for making ice cubes or freezing fresh food.
The air temperature in the freezer compartment, measured
with a thermometer or other measuring device, may fluc‐
tuate. Temperature fluctuations are greater in a half-full
or empty freezer and it is possible to attain temperatures
warmer than -18 °C.
5.4.1 Freezing food
The maximum amount of fresh food that you can
freeze within 24 hours is specified on the type plate
(see 10.5 Model plate) under "Freezing capacity ... kg/24h".
To ensure that food quickly freezes through, adhere to the
following quantities per package:
-
Fruit and vegetables up to 1 kg
Meat up to 2.5 kg
-
74
Arranging your food properly
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to broken glass!
Bottles and cans containing drinks may burst when being

u Do not freeze bottles and cans containing drinks!
u Place packaged food in the freezer compartment in such
a way that it is in contact with the bottom or sides.
Defrosting food

Risk of food poisoning!
u Do not re-freeze thawed food.
u Use defrosted foodstuff as soon as possible.
You can defrost food in several ways:
-
In the fridge compartment
-
In the microwave
In the oven/fan-assisted oven
-
-
At room temperature

6 Saving energy
-
Pay attention to good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation
holes or grids.
-
Always keep the fan air slits clear.
Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight or near
-
radiators or similar sources of heat.
-
If the appliance is installed directly next to an oven,
the energy consumption may increase slightly. This is
dependent on the service life and usage intensity of the
oven.
-
Energy consumption depends on the installation condi‐
tions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.3 Appliance
range of use) . A warmer ambient temperature can
increase the energy consumption.
