It is very important to set the correct

temperature for storing food in the ap-

pliance. Bacteria will cause food which

is not stored at the correct temperature

to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influ-

ences the growth rate of these bacteria.

Reducing the temperature reduces their

growth rate.

To freeze fresh food and to store frozen

food for long periods, a temperature of

-18 °C is required. At this temperature

the growth of bacteria is generally hal-

ted. As soon as the temperature rises

above -10 °C, the bacteria become act-

ive in the food again so it cannot be

kept as long. For this reason, partially

defrosted or defrosted food must not be

re-frozen. Food may be re-frozen once it

has been cooked, as the high temperat-

ures achieved when cooking destroy

most bacteria.

The temperature in the refrigeration ap-

pliance will rise:

- The more often the appliance door is

opened and the longer it is kept

open.

- The more food is stored in it.

- The warmer the food is which is be-

ing put into it.

- The higher the ambient temperature

surrounding the refrigeration appli-

ance. This refrigeration appliance is

designed for use within specific am-

bient temperatures (climate range).

Do not use in ambient temperatures

for which it is not designed.
