You can conserve foodstuffs in the refrigerator. The time for which the food can be
conserved in this way is usually stated on the package.
The refrigerator is divided in different zones with different temperatures:
• The colder zones are immediately above the drawers for fruit and vegetables,
near the back wall.
• Observe the temperature information and best before date on the food
packaging.
• Observe the following when using the refrigerator:
– Never re-freeze products which have started defrosting or have been
defrosted; consume them as soon as possible.
– Wrap food in aluminum foil or cling film and shut in a suitable box with a lid.
This ensures that aromas, the shape and the freshness will be better
conserved.
Defrosting the refrigerator
Humidity can form frost in the interior of the refrigerator or on the vaporizer. This
reduces the cooling capacity. Defrost the refrigerator in good time to avoid this.
!
WARNING! Fire hazard
Do not use any mechanical objects or other media to speed up the
defrosting process, unless they have been recommended by the
manufacturer for this purpose.
A
NOTICE!
Never use hard or pointed tools to remove ice or to loosen objects
which have frozen in place.
This is how to defrost the refrigerator:
1. Take the contents out.
2. If necessary, put them in another cooling appliance.
3. Set the knob to "0".
4. Leave the door open.
5. Wipe off the water resulting from defrosting or – if present – empty the collecting
tray. If your refrigerator has a water drain, drain the thawed water off.
