Natural air circulation gives rise to
different temperature zones inside the
refrigerator section. Cold, heavy air
sinks to the lowest section of the
appliance.
Make use of the different zones
when placing food in the appliance.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone in the refrigerator
section is directly above the vegetable
containers.
Use this 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,
– pre-packed vegetables and other
fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a minimum
temperature of 4 °C.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is in the top section
of the refrigerator door. Use this for
storing butter and cheese.
Important
– Not all fruit and vegetables should be
stored together in the same container
as they give off natural gases which
affect the perishability of other foods.
(See "Chilling and storing food").
– 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.
