The correct temperature
19
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.
To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for long periods, a temperature of
-18 °C
is required. At this temperature
the growth of bacteria is generally hal-
ted. As soon as the temperature rises
above -10 °C, the bacteria become act-
ive in the food again so it cannot be
kept as long. For this reason, partially
defrosted or defrosted food must not be
re-frozen. Food may be re-frozen once it
has been cooked, as the high temperat-
ures achieved when cooking destroy
most bacteria.
The temperature in the refrigeration ap-
pliance will rise:
– The more often the appliance door is
opened and the longer it is kept
open.
– The more food is stored in it.
– The warmer the food is which is be-
ing put into it.
– The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appli-
ance. This refrigeration appliance is
designed for use within specific am-
bient temperatures (climate range).
Do not use in ambient temperatures
for which it is not designed.
Setting the temperature
Press the button for setting the tem-
perature repeatedly until the temper-
ature you want lights up in the tem-
perature display.
The first time you press the button the
last temperature set will flash in the dis-
play.
The temperature value will change up
until the setting for -28 °C is reached. It
will then drop back to the -15 °C set-
ting.
The newly selected temperature will be
adopted automatically after a short
while and will appear in the temperature
display.
The temperature in the appliance will
now slowly start to adjust to this value.
Temperature display
The temperature display on the control
panel always shows the
required
temperature for the freezer.
