Storing food in the refrigerator section
38
Coldest area
The coldest area in the fridge zone is
directly above the DailyFresh drawer
and at the back of the appliance.
Use these areas to store all delicate and
highly perishable food such as:
- Fish, meat, poultry
- Cold cuts, ready meals
- Dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream
- Fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough
- Raw milk cheese and other raw milk
products
- Pre-packed vegetables
- Other fresh food (with a label stating
it should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4 °C)
Tip:
Store food in such a way that it
does not touch the rear wall of the
fridge zone. Otherwise it could freeze to
the rear wall.
Temperature indicator for the coldest
area
The temperature indicator for the cold-
est area is located on the left-hand in-
side wall in the coldest area of the refri-
gerator section. You can use the tem-
perature indicator to check the temper-
ature in this area for your delicate and
highly perishable food. If the temperat-
ure settings are correct, the lowest av-
erage temperature will be in the coldest
area (between the temperature indicator
and the shelf below). This low temperat-
ure, combined with appropriate hygiene
measures, delays the propagation of
bacteria, e.g. salmonella and listeria,
which can lead to serious food poison-
ing.
After initial commissioning of the refri-
geration appliance, it may take up to
12 hours before the desired temperat-
ure is reached.
The temperature indicator will not
display an accurate reading if the ap-
pliance door is opened frequently or
for long periods. Do not keep the ap-
pliance door open for long periods.
Check the temperature indicator
again after a few hours.
