Alarm
Door alarm
If the appliance door is open for a while, the door alarm switches on.
The warning signal is switched off.

Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing dairy products, eggs, cooked meals, pastries, preserves once opened and hard cheese.
The temperature can be set from
$$ + 3 ^ {\circ} \mathrm {C} \dots + 8 ^ {\circ} \mathrm {C}. $$
The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable foods in the short to medium term. The lower the selected temperature, the slower the enzymatic and chemical processes and deterioration by microorganisms. A temperature of +4^ or lower ensures optimum freshness and safety of the stored foods.
Note when storing food
Store fresh, undamaged food.
The quality and freshness will then be retained for longer.
In the case of ready products and
bottled goods do not exceed the minimum sell-by date or use-by-date indicated by the manufacturer.
To retain aroma, colour and freshness, pack or cover food well before placing it in the appliance.
This avoids transference of flavours and discolouration of the plastic parts.
- Leave warm food and drinks to cool down before placing them in the refrigerator compartment.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone is on the partition and in the storage area for large bottles.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Notes
Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. Cheese can then continue to release its aroma and the butter will still be easy to spread.
Store perishable food such as fish, sausages and meat in the cool-fresh compartment. "Cool-fresh compartment" on page 27

Cool-fresh compartment
The temperature in the cool-fresh compartment is kept at around 0^ C .
The low temperature and the optimum moisture provide ideal storage conditions for fresh food.
With cool-fresh storage, you can keep fresh foodstuffs fresh for up to three times longer than in the refrigerator compartment – for even longer freshness, nutrient retention and better flavour.
Vegetable container
Fig. 11
The vegetable container is the best storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables. You can adjust the humidity in the vegetable container via the humidity controller of the division plate and a special seal.
The humidity in the vegetable container can be set according to the type and amount of products to be stored:
Mainly fruit as well as for a large load - set lower air humidity
Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed or small load - set higher air humidity
Notes
Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. aubergines, cucumbers, courgettes, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored outside the appliance at temperatures of approx. +8^ ... +12^ for optimum preservation of quality and flavour.
- Condensation may form in the vegetable container depending on the food and quantity stored. Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the humidity in the vegetable container with the humidity controller.
Cool-fresh container
Fig. 1/11
The storage climate in the cool-fresh container offers ideal conditions for the storage of fish, meat and sausage.
Storage times at 0 °C
