The correct temperature
23
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the ap-
pliance. Bacteria will cause food which
is not stored at the correct temperature
to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influ-
ences the growth rate of these bacteria.
Reducing the temperature reduces their
growth rate.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
– the more often the door is opened
and the longer it is kept open,
– the more food that is stored in it,
– the warmer the food is which is being
put into it,
– the higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the appliance. This refri-
geration appliance is designed for
use within specific ambient temperat-
ures (climate range). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is
not designed.
... in the refrigerator section
We recommend a temperature of
4 °C
in the refrigerator section.

In normal operation, the temperature
display shows the
current average
refrigerator section temperature
.
Depending on the ambient temperature
and the temperature setting, it can take
the appliance a few hours to reach the
temperature required and for this tem-
perature to then be shown as a con-
stant temperature in the display.
