Storage Shelves

The glass shelf above the fruit and
vegetable compartment should
always remain in position, to ensure
fruit and vegetables stay fresh longer.
The remaining storage shelves can be
adjusted to various heights:
Pull the storage shelf forward until it
can be tipped up or down and remo-
ved.
To insert at a different height use the same procedure in reverse.
Adjustment for tall goods:
Remove the front half of the two-
part vario glass storage shelf and
insert it at a different level. Space is
thus gained for storage of tall goods
on the underlying storage shelf.

Variable Inner Door

The door compartments can be pul-
led up and removed, and inserted at
other positions as needed.

Fresh food  refrigeration

To obtain the best performance:

• do not store warm food or evaporating liquid in the refrigeator

• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.

• Position food so that air can circuiate freely round it.
Useful hints:

Meat

(all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above

the vegetable drawer(s)

For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.

Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc

: these should be covered and may be placed

on any shelf.
