Caution
Do not refreeze thawing or thawed food. Only ready
meals (boiled or fried) may be refrozen.
No longer store the frozen produce for the max.
storage period.
Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage
location for ready meals, cakes and pastries, preserved
food, condensed milk and hard cheese.
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, colour and freshness, pack
■
or cover food well before placing in the appliance.
This will prevent the transfer of flavours and the
discolouration of plastic parts in the refrigerator
compartment.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
■
placing in the appliance.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones.
The coldest zone is on the partition and on the shelf for
large bottles.
Warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Notes
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.
Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat)
■
in the "cool-fresh" compartment (see chapter
The "cool-fresh" compartment).
