Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for meat, sausage, fish,
dairy products, eggs, ready meals
and pastries.
Note when storing food
Store fresh, unspoilt food. The quality
■
and freshness will then be retained for
longer.
With ready-made products and bottled
■
goods, observe the best-before or
use-by date specified by the
manufacturer.
To preserve aroma, colour and
■
freshness, pack or cover food well
before placing in the appliance. This
will prevent the transfer of flavours and
the discolouration of plastic parts in
the refrigerator section.
Store fruit and vegetables without
■
packaging to improve air circulation in
the vegetable container with the
humidity controller and to prevent
condensation forming. Store fruit and
vegetables bought loose or small
items of fruit and vegetables in stable
packaging with air holes.
Allow hot food and drinks to cool
■
down first before placing in the
appliance.
Note
Do not block air outlet openings with
food, otherwise the air circulation will be
impaired. Food which is stored directly
in front of the air outlet openings may be
frozen by the cold air flowing out.

Note the chill zones in the
refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
The coldest zones are in front of the
■
air outlet openings and in the chill
compartment, Fig. !/22.
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. hard cheese and butter in
the warmest zone. The aroma of hard
cheese can then continue to develop
and butter remains spreadable.
Vegetable container with
humidity control
Fig. '
To create the optimum storage climate
for fruit and vegetables, you can set
the humidity level in the vegetable
container:
Mainly vegetables as well as for a
■
mixed or small load – high air
humidity
Mainly fruit as well as for a large load
■
– low air humidity
