Using the refrigerator efficiently
Different storage zones
Due to the natural circulation of the air in the appliance, there are different temperature zones in the refrigerator. Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the appliance. Make use of the different zones when placing food in the appliance.
This appliance has automatic dynamic cooling, which helps to keep an even temperature when the fan is running. For this reason, the difference between the various zones is less pronounced.
Warmest area
The warmest area is in the top section of the door. Use this for storing butter and cheese.
Coldest area
The coldest area in the refrigerator is directly above the PerfectFresh zone. However, the PerfectFresh zone is even colder.
Use these areas in the refrigerator and in the PerfectFresh zone for all delicate and highly perishable food, e.g.
–fish, meat, poultry,
–sausage products, ready meals,
–dishes or baked goods containing eggs or cream,
–fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or quiche dough,
–soft cheese and other dairy products,
–
Do not store explosive materials in the appliance or any products containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Danger of explosion.
If storing alcohol with a high percentage proof, make sure it is tightly closed, and store upright.
Do not store cooking oil in the refrigerator door. Traces of oil can cause stress cracks to occur in the plastic components in the door.
Food must not touch the back wall of the refrigerator, as it may freeze to the back wall.
To allow air to circulate efficiently, do not pack food too closely together in the refrigerator. Do not cover the fan in the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this is essential for keeping the appliance cool.
