Usable capacity
Information on the usable capacity can
be found inside your appliance on
the rating plate. Fig. 8
Fully utilising the freezer
volume
To place the maximum amount of food in
the freezer, all frozen food containers,
except the bottom one, can be taken out
of the appliance. The food can be
stacked directly on the freezer shelves.
Removing the fittings
To remove a frozen food container, pull
out all the way, lift at the front
and remove. Fig. 4
Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for ready meals, cakes
and pastries, preserved food, condensed
milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables
sensitive to cold as well as tropical fruit.
Note when loading products:
Wrap or cover food before placing in
the appliance. This will retain the aroma,
colour and freshness of the food. In
addition, flavours will not be transferred
between foods and the plastic parts will
not become discoloured.
Note
Avoid contact between food and rear
panel. Otherwise the air circulation will
be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to
the rear panel.
Freezer compartment
Use the freezer compartment
■ To store deep-frozen food.
■ To make ice cubes.
■ To freeze food.
Note
Ensure that the freezer compartment
door has been closed properly. If
the door is open, the frozen food will
thaw. The freezer compartment will
become covered in thick ice. Also: waste
of energy due to high power
consumption!
Max. freezing capacity
Information about the max. freezing
capacity within 24 hours can be found
on the rating plate. Fig. 8
