URefrigerator
compartment
Refr i ger at or compart ment
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 +37 °F (+4 °C) or lower ensures optimum freshness and safety of the stored groceries.
Note when storing food
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.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.
Coldest zone
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.
Warmest 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.
Vegetable container with humidity controller
The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables.You can adjust the humidity in the vegetable container via the humidity controller and a special seal. This allows fresh fruit and vegetables to be stored up to twice as long as with conventional storage.
The humidity in the vegetable container can be set according to the type and quantity of products to be stored:
Mainly fruit as well as for a large load – set lower
humidity with controller position FRUIT
Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed or small
load – set higher humidity with controller position VEGETABLES
Notes
For optimum preservation of quality and flavor
store fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. eggplant, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) outside of the appliance at temperatures of approx. +46 °F (+8 °C) ... +54 °F (+12 °C).
Condensation may form in the vegetable
container depending on the type and quantity of products stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the humidity in the vegetable container with the humidity controller.
Chill compartment
The chill compartment has lower temperatures than the refrigerator compartment. Temperatures below +32 °F (0 °C) may occur.
Ideal for storing fish, meat and sausage. Not suitable for salads, vegetables and groceries sensitive to cold.
The temperature in the chill compartment can be adjusted.
21
en-us Freezer compartment
WFreezer compartment
Freez er compar t ment
The freezer compartment is suitable for:
storing frozen food
making ice cubes
freezing food
The temperature can be set from -11 °F (­24 °C)... +7 °F (-14 °C).
The freezer compartment can be used to store perishable foods long-term almost without any noticeable reduction in quality, as the low temperatures considerably slow down or stop deterioration. Appearance, flavor and all valuable ingredients are largely retained.
The time between putting fresh food in the freezer compartment and it freezing solid depends on the following factors:
temperature set
type of food
amount of food in the freezer compartment
quantity and type of storage
Fully utilizing the freezer volume
To place the maximum quantity of frozen food in the freezer compartment:
Remove all fittings.
Store food directly on the shelves and on the floor
of the freezer compartment.
Purchasing frozen food
Ensure the packaging is not damaged.
Check there is a sell-by date.
The temperature in the supermarket freezer must
be 0 °F (-18 °C) or lower.
Do not interrupt the freezing chain. If possible,
transport frozen food in a cool bag and place in the freezer compartment quickly.
When loading products
Freeze large quantities of food in the top
compartment. This is where it will freeze especially quickly and gently.
Distribute food in the compartments or frozen
food containers.
Do not bring food which is to be frozen into
contact with frozen food. If required, restack frozen food in the frozen food containers.
Important for unrestricted air circulation in the
appliance: push in frozen food containers up to the limit stop.
Freezing fresh food
Freeze only fresh and undamaged food. Food which is boiled, fried or baked is more suitable
for freezing than food which is eaten raw.
Before freezing food, make preparations appropriate to the food in order to retain the best possible nutritional value, flavor and color:
Vegetables: wash, chop, blanch.
Fruit: wash, pit and perhaps peel, possibly add
sugar or ascorbic acid solution.
Information on how to do this can be found in relevant literature.
Suitable for freezing
Baked goods
Fish and seafood
Meat
Poultry and game
Vegetables, fruit and herbs
Eggs without shells
Dairy products, e.g. cheese, butter and quark
Ready meals and leftovers, e.g. soups, stews,
cooked meat and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and desserts
22
Not suitable for freezing
Types of vegetables which are usually eaten raw,
e.g. lettuce or radishes
Unpeeled or hard-boiled eggs
Grapes
Whole apples, pears and peaches
Yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, creme fraiche
and mayonnaise
Freezer compartment en-us
Packing frozen food
The correct type of packaging and material selection are decisive factors in the retention of the product quality and prevent the development of freezer burn.
1. Place food in packaging.
2. Remove air.
3. Pack food airtight to prevent it from losing flavor
or drying out.
4. Label packaging with contents and date of
freezing.
Suitable packaging:
Plastic foil
Tubular foil made of polyethylene (PE)
Aluminum foil
Freezer containers
Suitable closures:
Rubber bands
Plastic clips
Cold-resistant adhesive tape
Unsuitable packaging:
Wrapping paper
Greaseproof paper
Cellophane
Garbage bags and used grocery bags
Thawing frozen food
The thawing method must be adjusted to the food and application in order to retain the best possible product quality.
Thawing methods:
in the refrigerator compartment (especially
suitable for animal-based foods such as fish, meat, cheese, quark)
at room temperature (bread)
in the microwave (food for immediate
consumption or immediate preparation)
in the oven/cooker (food for immediate
consumption or immediate preparation)
9 CAUTION!
Do not refreeze partly or completely thawed food. You can only refreeze food once it has been cooked (boiled or fried).
The frozen food can no longer be stored for the maximum duration.
Shelf life of frozen food at 0 °F (-18 °C)
Fish, sausage, ready meals,
up to 6 months
and cakes and pastries:
Meat, poultry: up to 8 months
Vegetables, fruit: up to 12 months
