The correct temperature
85
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.
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.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
- the more often the appliance door is
opened and the longer it is kept open
- the more food that is stored in it
- the warmer the food is that is being
put into it
- the higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appli-
ance is. The refrigeration appliance is
designed for use within a specific cli-
mate class (room temperature range).
Do not use in a climate class for
which it is not designed.
Setting the temperature
Touch the sensor control to set the
temperature.
The previously set temperature will ap-
pear.
Use the and sensor controls to
set the temperature. Keeping your fin-
ger on the sensor control changes
the temperature continuously.
Confirm the temperature setting with
OK or wait approx. 8seconds after
the last touch of the sensor. This tem-
perature will be automatically
adopted.
Tip: The new temperature setting can
also be confirmed and adopted by clos-
ing the appliance door.
The temperature display always shows
the required temperature.
If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approximately 6hours if the
appliance is not very full and for ap-
proximately 24hours if the appliance
is full before checking the temperature
display. It will take this long for an accu-
rate reading to be given.
If, after this time, the temperature is
still too high or too low, adjust it
again.
