• "Removing the shelf", Page44 Variable shelf Use the variable shelf to the store tall items, e.g. cans or bottles, on the shelf below. You can remove the front section of the variable shelf and slide it below the rear part of the shelf.

Extendable shelf In order to achieve an improved over- view and to remove food more quickly, remove the shelf. Fruit and vegetable container 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 on the partition and a special seal.

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 appli- ance 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 us- ing the humidity controller. To ensure that the quality and aroma are retained, store fruit and veget- ables that are sensitive to cold out- side of the appliance at temperatures of approx. 8°C to 12°C. Fruit that is sensitive to cold ¡ Pineapples ¡ Bananas ¡ Mangoes ¡ Papayas ¡ Citrus fruits Vegetables that are sensitive to cold ¡ Aubergines ¡ Gherkins ¡ Courgettes ¡ Peppers ¡ Tomatoes ¡ Potatoes Cool-fresh container Use the lower temperatures in the cool-fresh container to store perish- able food, e.g. fish, meat and saus- ages. Butter and cheese compartment Store butter and hard cheese in the butter and cheese compartment. Door racks To adjust the door racks as required, remove the door rack and re-insert elsewhere.

• "Removing door racks", Page44 Accessories Only use original accessories. These have been made especially for your appliance.

• Page41 Operating tips ¡ Once you have switched on the appliance, the set temperature is only reached after several hours. Do not put in any food in the appli- ance until the temperature is reached. ¡ The housing to the left, the right and beneath the cool-fresh com- partment may heat up slightly tem- porarily. This prevents condensa- tion in the area of the door seal. Switching off the appliance

Press / repeatedly until the tem- perature display shows the re- quired temperature. The recommended temperature in the refrigerator compartment is 4°C. Setting the cool-fresh compartment temperature Note:The temperature in the cool- fresh compartment is kept at around 0°C.

If frost forms on the food items in the cool-fresh compartment, set a higher cool-fresh temperature.

• Page47 Additional functions Additional functions Find out which additional functions which can be used for your appli- ance. Super cooling Super cooling cools the refrigerator compartment to make it as cold as possible. This cools food and drinks quickly through.

Refrigerator compartment Refrigerator compartment You can keep dairy products, eggs, ready meals, pastries, open pre- serves and hard cheese in the refri- gerator compartment. You can set the temperature in the refrigerator compartment 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. Tips for storing food in the refri- gerator 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 un- spoiled 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 manu- facturer. ¡ To retain aroma, colour and fresh- ness 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 on the partition and in the door rack for large bottles. Warmest zone The warmest zone is at the very top of the door. Tips ¡ Store food that does not spoil eas- ily 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. ¡ Store perishable food such as fish, sausages and meat in the cool- fresh compartment.

• "Cool-fresh compartment", Page42 Cool-fresh compartment 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.Defrosting en

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, sausage (cold meat) up to 7 days Smoked fish, broccoli up to 14 days Salad greens, fennel, apricots, plums up to 21 days Soft cheese, yoghurt, quark, buttermilk, cauliflower up to 30 days Defrosting Defrosting Observe the information when you want to defrost your appliance.
