Refrigerator compartment
10 Refrigerator compart-
ment
Refrigerator compartment
You can keep meat, sausage, fish,
dairy products, eggs, prepared meals
and pastries in the refrigerator com-
partment.
The temperature can be set from
2 °C to 8 °C.
The refrigerator compartment can
also be used to store highly perish-
able foods in the short to medium
term. The lower the selected temper-
ature, the longer the food remains
fresh.
10.1 Tips for storing food in
the refrigerator compart-
ment
¡
Only store food when fresh and
undamaged.
¡
Store food covered or in air-tight
packaging.
¡
Allow hot food and drinks to cool
down first before placing in the ap-
pliance.
¡
Observe the best-before date or
use-by date specified by the manu-
facturer.
10.2 Chill zones in the refri-
gerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone is between the ar-
row stamped on the side and the
shelf underneath.
Tip:
Store highly perishable food
such as fish, sausages and meat in
the coldest zone.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is at the very top
of the door.
Tip:
Store food that does not spoil
easily in the warmest zone, e.g. hard
cheese and butter. Cheese can then
continue to release its aroma and the
butter will still be easy to spread.
10.3 "OK" sticker
The "OK" sticker lets you check
whether the refrigerator compartment
reaches the safe temperature ranges
of +4 °C or colder recommended for
food.
The "OK" sticker is not included with
all models.
If the sticker does not indicate "OK",
gradually reduce the temperature.
