The temperature can be set from 3°C to 8°C. The recommended temperature in the refrigerator compartment is 4°C. The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perish- able foods in the short to medium term. The lower the selected temper- ature, the longer the food remains fresh. 10.1 Tips for storing food in the refrigerator compart- ment ¡ Only store food when fresh and undamaged. ¡ Observe the best-before date or use-by date specified by the manu- facturer. ¡ Store food well wrapped or covered. ¡ Allow hot food and drinks to cool down first before placing in the ap- pliance. 10.2 Chill zones in the refri- gerator compartment The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones. Coldest zone The coldest zone is on the partition and in the door rack for large bottles.en Cool-fresh compartment

Tip:Store highly perishable food such as fish, sausages and meat in the cool-fresh compartment.

• "Cool-fresh compartment", Page42 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. Cool-fresh compartment 11 Cool-fresh compart- ment Cool-fresh compartment In the cool-fresh compartment, you can keep fresh food fresh three times longer than in the refrigerator com- partment. The temperature in the cool-fresh compartment is kept at around 0°C. Storing food in the fresh compart- ment retains the quality of the food better. The low temperature and the optimum moisture provide ideal stor- age conditions for fresh food. 11.1 Storage times in the cool-fresh compartment at 0°C The storage times are dependent on the original quality of your food. Food Storage time Fresh fish, seafood up to 3days Poultry, meat (boiled/ fried) up to 5 days Beef, pork, lamb, saus- age (cold meat) up to 7 days Food Storage time Smoked fish, broccoli up to 14 days Salad greens, fennel, apricots, plums up to 21 days Soft cheese, yoghurt, quark, buttermilk, cauli- flower up to 30days Freezer compartment 12 Freezer compartment Freezer compartment You can store frozen food, freeze food and make ice cubes in the freezer compartment. The temperature in the freezer com- partment depends on the temperat- ure in the refrigerator compartment. Long-term storage of food should be at –18°C or lower. The freezer compartment can be used to store perishable food long- term. The low temperatures slow down or stop the spoilage. 12.1 Freezer compartment door To ensure that the frozen food that is stored does not thaw and the freezer compartment is not covered in too much ice, always close the freezer compartment door.
