Proper storage of food
To store larger quantities in the refrigerator compartment, the glass shelves are height
adjustable.
1. Lift the glass shelves slightly at the back and pull them forward.
2. Pivot the glass shelves up or down and remove.
The glass shelf above the vegetable drawer always remains in the same position to
ensure correct air circulation.
Observe the following information when refrigerating fresh food:
➢ If the appliance doors are open for a long period of time, this leads to a
considerable increase in temperature in the compartments of the
appliance. Stored food can therefore spoil faster.
Fresh food compartment
The fresh food compartment is used to store fresh, easily perishable food. The lower
temperature slows down the ageing process in the cells.
Suitable for short-term storage of fresh fish, meat, sausages and some dairy products.
Place these foods in the fresh box in an airtight packaging.
➢ Do not store the fresh food for more than 3 days.
The freezer compartment is suitable for the longer-term storage of
frozen goods and for freezing fresh food.
RISK OF INJURY!
Touching frozen goods, ice and metallic parts inside the freezer compartment of the
appliance can cause burn-like symptoms on very sensitive skin.
Do not touch frozen goods with damp or wet hands; your hands could freeze to the
goods.
Observe the following when storing in a freezer compartment:
• Keep the appliance doors closed in the event of a power failure. The food remains
frozen for several hours (see "Storage time in the event of faults" product fiche).
• Use only food that is fit for consumption.
• Do not interrupt the refrigerating chain of frozen products.
• Keep the period between the purchase of the frozen food and its storage in the
appliance as short as possible.
• Do not freeze large quantities at once. The quality of the food is best retained if it
is quickly frozen through to the core. The maximum amount of food you can
freeze within 24 hours is stated on the type plate and in the product fiche.
• The temperature during the freezing phase can be controlled via the temperature
regulator in the refrigerator compartment (on refrigerators with freezer
compartment and fridge/freezer combinations only).
