Fruit and vegetable container with humidity control Store fresh fruit and vegetables in the fruit and vegetable container. You can adjust the humidity in the fruit and vegetable container via the humidity controller and a special seal. This allows fresh fruit and vegetables to be stored for twice as long as with conventional storage. → Fig. 4 The air humidity in the fruit and vegetable container can be set according to the type and amount of food to be stored:

¡ Low humidity required when primarily storing fruit or if the appliance is very full.

¡ Higher humidity required when primarily storing vegetables as well as when the appliance is filled with mixed items or is not very full. Condensation may form in the fruit and vegetable container depending on the food and quantity stored. Remove the condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the air humidity in the vegetable container using the humidity controller. To ensure that the quality and aroma are retained, store fruit and vegetables that are sensitive to cold outside of the appliance at temperatures of approx. 8 °C to 12 °C.

Super cooling Super cooling cools the refrigerator compartment to make it as cold as possible. This cools food and drinks quickly through. Switch on Super cooling before placing large quantities of food in the freezer compartment. Note: When Super cooling is switched on, increased noise may occur. 40

Refrigerator compartment

Refrigerator compartment You can keep meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals and pastries in the refrigerator compartment. You can set the temperature in the refrigerator compartment from 2 °C to 8 °C. The recommended temperature in the refrigerator compartment is 4 °C. → ""OK" sticker", Page 41 The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable foods in the short to medium

term. The lower the selected temperature, the longer the food remains fresh.

Tips for storing food in the refrigerator compartment Follow the tips if you store food in your refrigerator compartment. ¡ To ensure that the freshness and quality of the food is retained for longer, only store fresh and unspoiled food. ¡ In the case of ready-made products and bottled goods, do not exceed the best-before date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer. ¡ To retain aroma, colour and freshness or to prevent taste transfer and discolouration of the plastic parts, store food well wrapped or covered. ¡ Leave warm food and beverages to cool down before placing them in the refrigerator compartment.

Chill zones in the refrigerator compartment The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.

Coldest zone The coldest zone is between the arrow stamped on the side and the shelf underneath. Tip: Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat) in the coldest zone.

Warmest zone The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.

Tip: Store food that does not spoil easily in the warmest zone, e.g. hard cheese and butter. Cheese can then continue to release its aroma and the butter will still be easy to spread.

"OK" sticker The "OK" sticker lets you check whether the refrigerator compartment reaches the safe temperature ranges of +4 °C or colder recommended for food. The "OK" sticker is not included with all models. If the sticker does not indicate "OK", gradually reduce the temperature. → "Setting the refrigerator compartment temperature", Page 40 Once the appliance is switched on, it may take up to 12 hours until the set temperature is reached.

Correct setting Defrosting

Defrosting Observe the information when you want to defrost your appliance.

Defrosting in the refrigerator compartment When the appliance is operating, condensation droplets or frost form on the rear panel of the refrigerator compartment due to functional reasons. The back panel in the refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Condensation or frost run through the condensation channel into the drainage hole to the evaporation pan and do not have to be wiped away. 41

en Cleaning and servicing
