NOTE:
In generally a low to medium power level works best
for an optimized food storage. A high power level
also increases the energy consumption.
Interior light
By opening the respective appliance door, the interior
light switches on automatically.
Storing food
NOTE: Recommendation!
To guarantee that the temperature is low enough,
you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before
initial loading foods.
CAUTION:
Always pay attention to the storage instructions on
the sales packaging.
To avoid contamination of food, respect the following
instructions:
 Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
 Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact
with food and accessible drainage systems (see
"Cleaning and Maintenance").
 Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in
the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or
drip onto other food.
 Two-star frozen-food compartments are suit-
able for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making
ice-cream and making ice-cubes.
 One- , two-
partments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh
food.
 If the appliance is out of use for long period, fol-
low the instructions under "Switching off".

Storage space
Depending on requirements, shelves/drawers (par-
tially and depending on model) can be adjusted in
height or removed to optimize the storage space.
NOTE:
For the most efficient use of energy, place all shel-
ves/drawers in their original position.
Fridge
Always store food covered or packed to prevent dry-
ing-out and transfer of odor or taste onto other food
items. You may pack the food with e.g.
 Polyethylene plastic bags or foil
 Plastic bowl with lid
 Special plastic covers with elastic strip
 Aluminum foil
Temperature zones and storage recommendations
The optimal cooling temperature is around
5∼7 degrees for the central area of the cooling.
Different cooling zones are created by the air circula-
tion. Regardless of the power level, cold air drops off.
 The coldest zone is on the cooling rear wall and in
the lower cooling part. Recommended for storing
perishable foods such as meat, fish and sausages
at around 2-3 degrees.
 About that it becomes less cold. For dairy pro-
ducts such as yoghurt, cheese and co., the center
of the cooling is just the right temperature at
around 5 degrees.
 Well-packed leftovers or preserves needs less
cooling. The upper cooling part at around
8 degrees could be the right place.
 The cooling door is one of the warmest locations.
The upper racks are good location for food that
