Usable Capacity; Refrigerator Compartment - Siemens KU L Series Instructions For Use Manual

We recommend:
Perishable food should not be stored
■
above +4 °C.
Low setting for short-term
■
storage of food (energy-saving mode).
Medium setting for long-term storage
■
of food.
Select a higher setting only
■
temporarily, when the door is
frequently opened or large quantities
are placed in the refrigerator
compartment.
Refrigeration capacity
The temperature in the refrigerator
compartment may rise temporarily if
large amounts of food or a lot of drinks
are placed inside.
Therefore the temperature controller
should be set to a higher setting for
approx. 7 hours.
Freezer compartment
The temperature in the freezer
compartment depends on the
temperature in the refrigerator
compartment.

Usable capacity

Information on the usable capacity can
be found inside your appliance on
the rating plate. Fig. .
Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for ready meals, cakes
and pastries, preserved food, condensed
milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables
sensitive to cold as well as tropical fruit.
Note when loading products
Wrap or cover food before placing in the
appliance. This will retain the aroma,
colour and freshness of the food. In
addition, flavours will not be transferred
between foods and the plastic parts will
not become discoloured.
Note
Avoid contact between food and rear
panel. Otherwise the air circulation will
be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to the
rear panel.
Note the chill zones in the

refrigerator compartment

The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
Coldest zone is in the pull-out
■
container. Fig. 3
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausage, meat) in the coldest zones.
Warmest zone is at the very top
■
of the door.
Note
Store e.g. cheese and butter in the
warmest zone. When served, the
cheese will not have lost its flavour
and the butter will be easy to spread.
