Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for meat, sausage, fish,
dairy products, eggs, ready meals
and pastries.
Storing food
■ Store fresh, undamaged food. The
quality and freshness will then
be retained for longer.
■ In the case of ready-made products
and bottled goods, observe the best-
before date or use-by date specified
by the manufacturer.
■ To retain aroma, colour
and freshness, pack or cover food
well before placing in the appliance.
This will prevent the transfer
of flavours and the discolouration
of plastic parts in the refrigerator
compartment.
■ Allow warm food and drinks to cool
down before placing in the appliance.
Note
Do not block air outlet openings with
food, otherwise the air circulation will be
impaired. Food which is stored directly
in front of the air outlet openings may be
frozen by the cold air flowing out.
Note the chill zones in the
refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
■ The coldest zones are in front of the
air outlet openings and in the chill
compartment, Fig. !/14.
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausage, meat) in the coldest zones.
■ Warmest zone is at the very top of the
door.
Note
Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in
the warmest zone. The aroma of hard
cheese can then continue to develop
and butter remains spreadable.
Vegetable container with
humidity control
Fig. '
To create the optimum storage climate
for fruit and vegetables, you can set
the humidity level in the vegetable
container:
■ Mainly vegetables as well as for a
mixed or small load – high air
humidity
■ Mainly fruit as well as for a large load
– low air humidity
Notes
■ Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple,
banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and
vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g.
aubergines, cucumbers, zucchini,
peppers, tomatoes and potatoes)
should be stored outside
the refrigerator at temperatures
of approx. +8 °C to +12 °C for
optimum preservation of quality and
flavour.
■ Condensation may form in the
vegetable container depending on the
type and quantity of products stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth
and adjust air humidity in the
vegetable container with the humidity
controller.
