Different storage zones
Natural air circulation gives rise to
different temperature zones inside the
refrigerator section. Cold, heavy air
sinks to the lowest section of the
appliance. Make use of the different
zones when placing food in the
appliance.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone in the refrigerator
section is directly above the vegetable
containers. Use this for all delicate and
highly perishable food, e.g.
– fish, meat, poultry,
– sausage products, ready meals,
– dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream,
– fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough,
– soft cheese and other dairy
products,
–
pre-packed vegetables and other
fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4 C.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is in the top section
of the refrigerator door. Use this for
storing butter and cheese.
Do not store explosive materials in
the appliance or any products
containing propellants (e.g. spray
cans). Danger of explosion.
If storing alcohol with a high
percentage proof, make sure it is
tightly closed, and store upright.
Do not store cooking oil in the
refrigerator door.
Traces of oil can cause stress
cracks to occur in the plastic
components in the door.
Food must not touch the back wall of
the appliance. Otherwise it may
freeze to the back wall.
Food which should not be
stored in a refrigerator
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration.
These include:
–
Fruit and vegetables which are
sensitive to cold, such as bananas,
avocado pears, papaya, passion
fruit, aubergines, peppers, tomatoes
and cucumbers
–
Fruit which is not yet ripe
–
Potatoes
–
Some hard cheeses
