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.
Note the chill zones in
the refrigerator compartment!
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
■ Coldest zone is between the arrow
stamped on the side and the glass
shelf situated below. Fig. 4
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. cheese and butter in
the warmest zone. When served,
the cheese will not have lost its flavour
and the butter will be easy to spread.
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!
