Refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage 
location for ready meals, cakes and pastries, 
preserved food, condensed milk, hard cheese, fruit 
and vegetables sensitive to cold as well as tropical 
fruit.

When purchasing food, please note:

The “purchase freshness” is important for the shelf-
life of your food.

In principle, the following applies: the fresher you 
store the food in the appliance, the longer it will 
remain fresh.

Therefore, when buying food, pay attention 
to the degree of freshness.

In the case of ready-made products and bottled 
goods, observe the best-before date or use-by date 
specified by the manufacturer.

Arranging food in the appliance

Wrap or cover food before placing in 
the appliance. This will retain the aroma, colour 
and freshness of the food. In addition, flavours 
will not be transferred between foods 
and the plastic parts will not become discoloured.

Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before 
placing in the appliance.

Do not block air outlet openings with food in 
the refrigerator compartment, otherwise the air 
circulation will be impaired. 
Food which is stored directly in front of the air 
outlet openings may be frozen by the cold air 
flowing out.

Avoid contact of oil and fat with the plastic parts 
and door seal.

Fast cooling

Fast cooling sets the refrigerator temperature to the 
coldest temperature setting for approx. 6 hours. Then 
the original temperature set before fast cooling mode 
is automatically restored.

Switch on fast cooling mode, e.g.:

before placing large quantities of food in the 
refrigerator compartment.

for fast cooling drinks.

Switching on
