u
refrigerator/freezer.
In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the
q
supplier immediately before connecting to the mains.
The floor at the site must be flat and level.
q
Do not install the appliance in a location where it is exposed
q
to direct radiation of the sun, next to a cooker, heater and
similar.
Always stand the appliance backed directly to the wall using
q
the enclosed wall spacers (see below).
The appliance may be moved only when it is empty.
q
The surface supporting the appliance must be at the same
q
level as the surrounding floor.
Do not install the appliance without assistance.

5.5 BioFresh compartment
In the BioFresh section, certain fresh foods can be kept fresh
for longer compared to conventional cooling methods.
16 * Depending on model and options
Control
The BioFresh section is divided into different zones.
The top BioFresh Plus compartment can go down to -2 °C
making it particularly suited to fresh seafood and fish. This can
be divided into two zones, so the right and left zones of the
compartment can be set at different temperatures. An internal
fish & seafood compartment lets you split the temperatures.
The zone below is a normal BioFresh area.
A moisture regulating plate lets you adjust the moisture for the
refrigerated food.
Compartments without a moisture regulating plate (DrySafe)
are suitable for dry or packaged foodstuffs. Compartments with
a moisture regulating plate (HydroSafe) are suitable for
unpacked foodstuffs with high moisture content or for dry or
packaged foodstuffs, depending on the setting.
The following sections give more details on this.
For food with an indicated best before date, the date specified
on the packaging always applies.
If the temperature falls below 0 °C, foodstuffs can freeze.
5.5.1 HydroSafe
The humidity in the compartment depends on the moisture
content of the items being stored and the number of times the
door is opened. You can set the humidity yourself.
On the high moisture setting, the HydroSafe is suitable for
storing loose salad, vegetables and fruit with a high moisture
content. A well-stocked drawer is stored in absolute freshness.
On the dry setting the compartment is suitable for storing dry or
packaged food (e.g. dairy products, meat, sausages). Here a
relatively dry storage climate is set.
5.5.2 Setting the humidity in the HydroSafe
u
Low humidity: Move the
slide control to the left.
u
High humidity:
Move the slide control to the
right.
5.5.3 BioFreshPlus compartment (adjustable)
Depending on the setting, the adjustable BioFresh Plus
compartment is ideal for storing fresh seafood, fish at -2 °Cor
fruit and vegetables at 0 °C. The settings are as follows: 0 °C I
0 °C, 0 °C I -2 °C, -2 °C I -2 °C.
5.5.4 Storing food
Note
Do not put the following in the BioFresh section: cold-sensi-
u
tive vegetables including cucumbers, aubergines, tomatoes,
courgettes and any cold-sensitive tropical fruits.
To prevent food spoilage due to transfer of germs: Store
u
unwrapped animal and vegetable products separate from
one another in the drawers. This also applies to different
sorts of meat.
If food has to be stored together due to lack of space:
wrap the food.
