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, color and freshness, pack or cover
food well before placing in the appliance. This will
prevent the transfer of flavors and the discoloration
of plastic parts in the refrigerator compartment.
■ Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
Note:
Avoid contact between food and rear panel. Otherwise
the air circulation will be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to the rear panel.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones:
■ Coldest zone
is on the rear panel inside the appliance and on the
cold storage compartment. See chapter “Getting to
know your appliance”.
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. Cheese can then continue to release its flavor
and the butter will still be easy to spread.
Vegetable container with humidity
controller
To create the optimum storage climate for fruit and
vegetables, you can set the air humidity in
the vegetable container depending on the quantity
stored:
■ smaller quantities of fruit and vegetables – high air
humidity
■ large quantities of fruit and vegetables – low air
humidity
Note:
■ Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana,
papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive
to cold (e.g. eggplants, cucumbers, zucchini,
peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored
outside the refrigerator at temperatures of approx.
46 °F to 54 °F (+8 °C to + 12 °C) for optimum
preservation of quality and flavor.
■ 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.
Cold storage compartment
See chapter “Getting to know your appliance”
The cold storage compartment has lower temperatures
than the refrigerator compartment. Even temperatures
below 32 °F (0 °C) may occur.
Ideal for storing fish, meat and sausage. Not suitable
for lettuce, vegetables and produce sensitive to cold.
