10.2 Chill zones in the refri-
gerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone is between the ar-
row stamped on the side and the
shelf underneath.
Tip: Store highly perishable food
such as fish, sausages and meat in
the coldest zone.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is at the very top
of the door and in the lower veget-
able container.
Tip: Store food that does not spoil
easily in the warmest zone, e.g. hard
cheese and butter. Cheese can then
continue to release its aroma and the
butter will still be easy to spread.
10.3 "OK" sticker
The "OK" sticker lets you check
whether the refrigerator compartment
reaches the safe temperature ranges
of +4 °C or colder recommended for
food.
The "OK" sticker is not included with
all models.
If the sticker does not indicate "OK",
gradually reduce the temperature.

ment temperature", Page 16
Once the appliance is switched on, it
may take up to 12 hours until the set
temperature is reached.

11 Defrosting
11.1 Defrosting in the refri-
gerator compartment
When the appliance is operating,
condensation droplets or frost form
on the rear panel of the refrigerator
compartment due to functional reas-
ons. The back panel in the refriger-
ator compartment defrosts automatic-
ally.
Condensation runs through the con-
densation channel into the drainage
hole to the evaporation pan and does
not have to be wiped away.
To ensure that the condensation can
drain and odours do not form, ob-
serve the following information:
→ "Cleaning the condensation chan-
nel and drainage hole", Page 18.
12 Cleaning and servi-
cing
To keep your appliance working effi-
ciently for a long time, it is important
to clean and maintain it carefully.
Customer Service must clean inac-
cessible points. Cleaning by cus-
tomer service can give rise to costs.
