General safety information

1.5 Energy saving

Always ensure good ventilation. Do not obstruct venti-
­lation openings or grilles. Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight or next to
­an oven, heater, or similar heat source. Energy consumption depends on installation conditions
­such as the ambient temperature (see 1.3) . Avoid opening the appliance door for any longer then
­neccesary. The lower the temperature is set the higher the energy
­consumption. Store food logically (see The appliance at a glance).
­All food stored in the appliance should be well wrapped
­and covered. This prevents frost buildup. Only take food out for as long as necessary so that it
­does not get too warm. Storing hot food: let it cool to room temperature first.

5.7 BioFresh compartment

The BioFresh compartment allows you to store certain fresh foods up to three times longer compared to conven­tional refrigeration systems, without sacrificing quality.
Food with a “use by” date must still be consumed by the date indicated on the package.
The taste, freshness, and nutritional value (vitamin B and C groups) of the food are preserved to a large extent. Fruit and vegetables spoil less quickly and lose less water, and food remains fresher and more wholesome.

5.7.1 HydroSafe

On the humid setting, the HydroSafe is suitable for storing loose-leaf lettuce, vegetables, and fruit with a high mois­ture content. When the drawer is full, this creates a cool, fresh environment with an air humidity of up to 90%. The humidity level in the compartment depends on the mois­ture content of the food inside and on how often the compartment is opened. You can adjust the humidity yourself.

5.7.2 DrySafe

u
Push rack up, pull forward, and reinsert in the reverse order.
Always take the butter and cheese compartment out together with the cover.
u
To remove the cover: press one side of the butter and cheese compartment outwards until the hinge pin of the cover is released, then remove the cover sideways.
To dismantle door racks
u
The door racks can be dismantled for cleaning.

5.6.8 Removing the bottle holder

u
Always take hold of the bottle holder by the plastic part.
The DrySafe is suitable for storing dry or packaged food (such as dairy products, meat, fish, and sausage). The DrySafe provides a relatively dry storage environment.

5.7.3 Storing food

Note
u
Do not store vegetables that do not support cold temperatures (such as cucumbers, eggplant, semi-ripe tomatoes, zucchini, and all cold-sensitive exotic fruits) in the BioFresh compartment.
The fresher the product and the better the quality, the longer it can be stored.
u
When shopping, make sure the food you purchase is fresh.
u
To prevent spoilage due to the transfer of bacteria: Store unpackaged animal products and plant-based products in separate compartments. This also applies for different types of meat. If you must store food together to save space:
u
Keep the food packaged.
