Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for ready meals, cakes
and pastries, preserved food, condensed
milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables
sensitive to cold.
Note when loading products
Wrap or cover food before placing
in the appliance. This will retain
the aroma, colour and freshness
of the food. In addition, flavours will not
be transferred between foods
and the plastic parts will not become
discoloured.
Note
Avoid contact between food and rear
panel. Otherwise the air circulation will
be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze
to the rear panel.
Note the chill zones
in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
■ Coldest zone
is on the rear panel inside
the appliance and on the cold storage
compartment. Fig. !/19
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. Cheese can then
continue to release its flavour and the
butter will still be easy to spread.
Vegetable container with
humidity controller
Fig. '
The vegetable container is the optimum
storage location for fresh fruit and
vegetables. A humidity controller and
a special seal can be used to adjust the
air humidity in the vegetable container.
This allows fresh fruit and vegetables
to be stored twice as long as with
conventional storage.
The air humidity in the vegetable
container can be set according to the
type and amount of products to be
stored:
■ Mainly fruit as well as for a large load
– lower air humidity
■ Mainly vegetables as well as for
a mixed load or small load – higher air
humidity
