Refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing meat, sausages, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals and pastries.

The temperature can be set from +36 °F (+2 °C)... +46 °F (+8 °C).

The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable groceries in the short to medium term. The lower the selected temperature, the slower the enzymatic and chemical processes and deterioration by microorganisms. A temperature of +39 °F (+4 °C) or lower ensures optimum freshness and safety of the stored groceries.

Note when storing food

Note: Avoid contact between food and the back panel.

Otherwise, the air circulation will be impaired and food or packaging may freeze to the back panel.

• Store fresh, undamaged food. The quality and freshness will then be retained for longer.
• In the case of ready products and bottled goods, do not exceed the minimum sell-by date or useby date indicated 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 in the interior at the back panel and in the chill compartment.

Note: Store delicate food (e.g. fish, sausages and meat) in the coldest zone.

Warmest zone

The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.

Note: Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. Cheese can continue to release its aroma and the butter will still be easy to spread.

Vegetable container

The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables.A high air humidity keeps leafy vegetables fresh for longer. Fruit and vegetables should be stored at a slightly lower air humidity.

Notes

• Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana, papaya 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. +8 °C/+36 °F ... +12 °C/+46 °F for optimum preservation of quality and aroma.
• Condensation may form in the vegetable container depending on the type and quantity of products stored. Remove condensation with a dry cloth.

Vegetable container with humidity controller

The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables.You can adjust the humidity in the vegetable container via the humidity controller and a special seal. This allows fresh fruit and vegetables to be stored up to twice as long as with conventional storage.

The humidity in the vegetable container can be set according to the type and quantity of products to be stored:

• Mainly fruit as well as for a large load – set lower humidity with controller position FRUIT
• Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed or small load – set higher humidity with controller position VEGETABLES

Notes

• For optimum preservation of quality and flavor store fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. eggplant, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) outside of the appliance at temperatures of approx. +46 °F (+8 °C) ... +54 °F (+12 °C).
• Condensation may form in the vegetable container depending on the type and quantity of products stored. Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the humidity in the vegetable container with the humidity controller.
