The temperature in both the refrigerator and the
freezer is automatically adjusted by setting the con-

Storage Zones In The Refrigerator
Due to the natural circulation of the air in the appli-

refrigerator chamber.
Coldest Area
The coldest area is directly above the vegetables
drawers. Use this area for all delicate and highly
perishable food e.g.
*
Fish, meat, poultry
*
Sausage products, ready meals
*
Dishes or baked goods containing eggs or

Use this for storing butter and cheese.

The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be
avoided by setting the correct temperature and
maintaining good standards of hygiene.
