The refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing meat, sausages, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals and pastries.
The temperature can be set from +36 °F (+2 °C)...
+46 °F (+8 °C).
The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable groceries in the short to medium term. The lower the selected temperature, the slower the enzymatic and chemical processes and deterioration by microorganisms. A temperature of +39 °F (+4 °C) or lower ensures optimum freshness and safety of the stored groceries.
Note: Avoid contact between food and the back panel.
Otherwise, the air circulation will be impaired and food or packaging may freeze to the back panel.
■Store fresh, undamaged food.
The quality and freshness will then be retained for longer.
■In the case of ready products and bottled goods, do not exceed the minimum sell-by date or useby date indicated by the manufacturer.
■To retain aroma, color and freshness, pack or cover food well before placing it into the appliance.
This will prevent flavors being transferred between foods and the plastic parts from becoming discolored.
■Leave warm food and drinks to cool down before placing them into the refrigerator compartment.
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.
The coldest zone is in the interior at the back panel and in the chill compartment.
Note: Store delicate food (e.g. fish, sausages and meat) in the coldest zone.
The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Note: Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. Cheese can continue to release its aroma and the butter will still be easy to spread.
