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
needs moderate cooling, such as butter and eggs.
There is space for drinks in the lower door racks.
 The vegetable box (depending on the model) is
suitable for fruit and vegetables at a temperature
of around 8 degrees, depending on the cooling
temperature. To ensure that delicate fruits and
vegetables feel good, a glass shelf above avoids
the falling cold.
Freezer
The device is NOT suitable for freezing food.
The three freezer compartment allows you to
store frozen food at a temperature of -18°C for up to
three months.
Storing frozen food
 Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in
accordance with the manufacturer's data. Make
sure the food items do not defrost after purchase
and to store them as fast as possible in the freez-
er.
 It is possible to store food for longer periods of
time. This period might vary, so observe the stor-
age information on the packaging of the mer-
chandise.
 Keep a space between the individual items, so
that the cold air can circulate.
General safety precautions
 Do not store bottles or cans. These can break
when the contents freeze – or even explode, if
they contain carbonated drinks.
 Once products have been defrosted halfway or
completely, they should be consumed as soon as
possible and should not be frozen again, except
they have been processed to a ready meal.
 Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not eat ice
cream directly from the freezer. The cold can
cause injuries in the oral cavity.
 Touching metal parts inside the unit can cause
symptoms like burns if the skin is very sensitive.
 Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.
