It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the
appliance. Micro-organisms will cause
food which is not stored at the correct
temperature to deteriorate rapidly.
Temperature influences the growth rate
of these micro-organisms. 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.
The appliance is designed for use in
specific ambient temperatures
(climate ranges). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is
not designed.
. . . temperature in the
refrigerator section
We recommend a temperature of
5 °C
in the middle of the refrigerator.
. . . in the freezer section
To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for a long time, a temperature of
-18 °C
is required. At this temperature
the growth of micro-organisms is
generally halted. As soon as the
temperature rises above -10 °C, the
micro-organisms become active in the
food again so that 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 temperatures
achieved when cooking destroy most
micro-organisms.
Setting the temperature
The temperatures for the refrigerator
and the freezer sections are set with the
temperature selector button.
^
Press the temperature button
repeatedly until the indicator light for
the temperature you want lights up in
the temperature display for the
refrigerator section.
The temperature will be adjusted
continuously with each press of the
button.
When the refrigerator section is set to
5 °C
, the freezer section will have an
average temperature of
-18 °C
.
Temperature display
The temperature display on the
control panel always shows the
required
temperature.
The temperature can be adjusted from:
1 °C to 9 °C
The correct temperature
