8.2 Using the refrigerator
The fridge conserves fresh foodstuffs. You can also conserve frozen foodstuffs in the
freezer compartment.
!
CAUTION! Health hazard!
• Never put any items back in the freezer compartment which have
started defrosting or have been defrosted; consume them as soon as
possible.
• Make sure that you only put items in the cooler which may be kept at
the selected temperature.
A
NOTICE!
Ensure that food or liquids in glass containers are not excessively
refrigerated.
Liquids expand when they freeze and can therefore destroy glass
containers.
➤ Switch the refrigerator on by turning the temperature control (fig. 1 9 page 3)
away from the "0" position.
✓ After switching on, the refrigerator requires approx. 180 seconds until the com-
pressor starts up.
Setting the temperature
You can set the temperature to any level using the temperature control (fig. 1 9,
page 3). The built-in thermostat regulates the temperature as follows:
• 1 = lowest cooling capacity
• 6 = highest cooling capacity
Generally, a setting in the middle is the most suitable.
I
NOTE
The cooling performance can be affected by:
• the ambient temperature
• the amount of food to be conserved
• the frequency with which the door is opened.
