4.7 Storing food and making ice
cubes
4.7.1 Storing products in the cooling
compartment
Switch the refrigerator on approx. 12 hours
before filling it.
Always store pre-cooled foods in the refrige-
rator. Make sure that the food is well cooled
when it is bought and also when transporting
it. Use insulated cooling bags.
Open the refrigerator door only for a short
period of time when removing products.
Products must be packed - best of all in clo-
sed containers, wrapped in aluminium foil or
similar - and stored separately from each
other, in order to prevent drying out or
odours.
Allow foods that have been warmed up to
cool down before storing.
Avoid storing products in the refrigerator that
could emit volatile flammable gases.
Do not expose the refrigerator to direct sun
light. Please bear in mind that the temperatu-
re inside a closed vehicle increases sharply if
exposed to sunlight and that this can reduce
the efficiency of the refrigerator.
Ensure that air circulation of the cooling unit
is not obstructed. Keep the ventilation grilles
free from obstructions.

4.7.2 Storing products in the freezer
compartment
Do not keep carbonated drinks in the freezer.
The freezer compartment is suitable for
making ice cubes and for short-term storage
of frozen food. It is not suitable as a means of
freezing foods.
When ambient temperatures are lower than
+10°C and the refrigerator is exposed to
these temperatures for extended periods of
time, an even regulation of freezer tempera-
ture cannot be guaranteed for system-rela-
ted reasons. This can cause the temperature
in the freezer to rise and the stored goods to
melt.

4.7.3 Making ice cubes

Ice cubes are best frozen overnight. At night,
the refrigerator has less work to do and the unit
has more reserves.
