5.5 Fridge compartment

The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator compartment results in zones with differing temperatures. It is coldest directly above the vegetable drawers and at the rear wall. It is warmest at the top front of the compartment and in the door.

5.5.1 Refrigerating food

WARNING

Danger of fire

Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage

compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

Note

Insufficient ventilation results in an increase in energy consumption and reduction of the refrigerating performance.

Never block the air slits in the fan.

Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum and glass

containers and cling film to wrap foods. Always use closed containers for liquids and for food

that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor transfer or cover them. Foods which give off a large amount of ethylene gas

and those that are sensitive to this gas, such as fruit, vegetables and salad, should always be separated or wrapped so as not to reduce the storage life; for example, do not store tomatoes together with kiwi fruits or cabbage.

For appliances 47-15/16 '' (1218 mm) and higher:

Operation

Use the front floor area of the fridge compartment only

to set down food to be refrigerated temporarily, e.g., when rearranging or sorting the contents of the fridge. Do not leave the food there, as it may be pushed back or tipped over when the door is closed. Do not store food too close together to enable sufficient

air circulation.

5.5.2 Setting the temperature

The temperature depends on the following factors:

the number of times the door is opened

the room temperature of the installation location

the type, temperature and amount of food.

The temperature can be set from 34 °F (1 °C) to 48 °F (9 °C), 41 °F (5 °C) is recommended.

The average temperature in the freezer compartment is approximately 0 °F (-18 °C).

To set a higher temperature: press the Up button

Page 9

Maintenance

5.6.1 Freezing food

A maximum of 2 kg of fresh food can be frozen per 24hour period.

WARNING

Danger of fire

Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage

compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

CAUTION

There is a risk of injury from pieces of broken glass. Bottles and cans containing drinks can split or crack when frozen. This applies in particular to carbonated drinks.

Do not freeze bottles and cans containing drinks.

4 hours before freezing food, set the temperature to

41 °F (5 °C) or colder.

So that the food is rapidly frozen through to the core, do not exceed the following quantities per pack:

- fruit, vegetables up to 2.2 lb (1 kg)

- meat up to 5.51 lbs (2.5 kg) Pack the food in portions in freezer bags, reusable

plastic, metal or aluminum containers. Spread the food out on the floor of the compartment

and do not let it come into contact with food that is already frozen so that this does not thaw out. Set the temperature back again 24 hours after placing

the food inside the freezer.
