Storing Food In The Refrigerator Section; Different Storage Zones - Miele KF 2801 Vi Operating And Installation Instructions

Storing food in the refrigerator section


Risk of explosion due to flam-
mable mixes of gases.
Electrical components can cause
flammable mixes of gases to ignite.
Do not store explosive materials in
the refrigeration appliance or any
products containing propellants (e.g.
spray cans).

Risk of damage due to greasy or
oily foods.
If storing food which contains a lot of
fat or oil in the refrigeration appliance
or the appliance door, make sure
that it does not come into contact
with plastic components as this
could cause stress cracks or break
the plastic.
Make sure that no fat or oil leaks
onto the plastic parts of the refrigera-
tion appliance.

Different storage zones

Due to natural air circulation, there are
different temperature zones in the refri-
gerator section.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest sec-
tion of the refrigeration section. Make
use of the different zones when placing
food in the appliance.
Tip: To allow air to circulate efficiently,
do not pack food too closely together in
the appliance.
If there is insufficient air circulation,
the cooling performance will de-
crease and energy consumption will
increase.
Do not cover the fan in the rear wall
of the appliance.
Tip: Do not store food in such a way
that it touches the rear wall of the refri-
gerator section as it may freeze to the
rear wall.
This appliance has automatic Dynamic
cooling, which helps to keep an even
temperature when the fan is running,
making the difference between the
various zones is less pronounced.
