The correct temperature
76
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the ap-
pliance. Bacteria will cause food which
is not stored at the correct temperature
to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influ-
ences the growth rate of these bacteria.
Reducing the temperature reduces their
growth rate.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
– The more often the door is opened
and the longer it is kept open
– The more food that is stored in it
– The warmer the food is which is be-
ing put into it
– The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding it. The appliance is de-
signed for use within specific ambi-
ent temperatures (climate range). Do
not use in ambient temperatures for
which it is not designed.
...in the Fridge Zone and in the
MasterFresh zone
We recommend a refrigerator tempera-
ture of 37°F (4°C) in the Fridge Zone.
The temperature in the dry compart-
ment of the MasterFresh zone is regu-
lated automatically and maintained just
above 32°F (0°C).
Automatic cold air circulation
(DynaCool)
The fan automatically turns on when the
cooling system for the refrigerator sec-
tion turns on. It distributes the tempera-
ture in the refrigerator section to all ar-
eas evenly so that all the food inside will
be chilled to about the same degree.
...in the Freezer Zone
To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for a long time, a temperature of
0°F (-18°C) is required. At this tempera-
ture the growth of bacteria is generally
halted. As soon as the temperature
rises above 14°F (-10°C), the bacteria
become active in the food again so it
cannot be kept as long. For this reason,
partially defrosted or defrosted food
must not be re-frozen. Food may be re-
frozen once it has been cooked (boiled
or roasted), as the high temperatures
achieved when cooking destroy most
bacteria.
