Note the chill zones in the
refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
■
Coldest zone is in the pull-out
container. Fig. #
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausage, meat) in the coldest zone.
■
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 flavour and the
butter will still be easy to spread.
The freezer
compartment
Using the freezer compartment
■
To store deep-frozen food.
■
To make ice cubes.
■
To freeze small quantities of 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. .
Freezing and storing
food
Purchasing frozen food
■
Packaging must not be damaged.
■
Use by the ”use by” date.
■
Temperature in the supermarket
freezer must be -18 °C or lower.
■
If possible, transport deep-frozen food
in a cool bag and place quickly in the
freezer compartment.
Freezing fresh food
Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
To retain the best possible nutritional
value, flavour and colour, vegetables
should be blanched before freezing.
Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and
asparagus do not require blanching.
Literature on freezing and blanching
can be found in bookshops.
