4.6 Coldest area in the refrigerator

(Equipment depends on model)

The symbol indicates the coldest area in the refrigerator. This area is near of the fan and above the symbol or a shelf positioned at the same height. Do not change the position of the shelf in this area to maintain the temperature.

4.6.1 Temperature indicator

(Equipment depends on model)

WARNING! This indicator is intended to work only with your refrigerator, do not use it in any other refrigerator (in fact, the coldest zone is not the same), or for any other use.

The appliance is equipped with a temperature indicator which monitors the average temperature in the coldest zone. The cooling temperature in the refrigerator depends on several parameters, e.g. the ambient temperature, the quantity of stored food, how often the door was opened. Please consider these parameters when you set the temperature.

When the indicator shows OK, the temperature is well-set. The cooling temperature is correct.

When the indicator turns WHITE, the temperature is too high. Please set a suitable the temperature and wait 12 hours before you check the indicator again.

When you have stored fresh food or when the door has been opened for a longer period of time, the indicator may turn WHITE after a while.

4.7 The refrigerator

The cooling compartment is not intended for storing food for a longer period of time. So, use the cooling compartment for short-term storage only. Different temperature areas due to the air circulation occur in the appliance. Use these different temperature areas to store different kinds of food.

Shelves Food from wheat flour, milk etc. The shelves are removable for cleaning. Adjust the shelves relevant to your needs.

Crisper Fruit, vegetable etc.

Door trays Eggs, beverage cans, bottled beverages, packaged foodstuffs etc.

Store covered or packaged food in the appliance only so the smell or taste of the food will not diffuse. The following materials are suitable for proper packaging:

◆ Food safe cling film/airtight bags and aluminium foil.
◆ Food safe covering hoods.
◆ Food safe containers made of plastic/glass/ceramics.
- Store fresh, packaged food on the shelves, fresh fruit and vegetable in the crisper.
◆ Store fresh meat packaged in protective foil for max. 2 days.
Let warm food such as cooked meals cool down before you store them in the appliance.
- Store food in such a way that the cooled air can circulate properly.
Do not place heavy bottles in the bottle pocket as it can come off the door.

4.8 The freezer

The freezer is intended for long-term storage of food. Please observe the advice for max. storage time on the packaging of frozen food products. Do not refreeze defrosted food.

Shelves Fish, meat, ice crème etc. The shelves are removable for cleaning. Adjust the shelves relevant to your needs.
Drawer	Packaged frozen foodstuffs.
Door trays	Small pieces of frozen food, short time storage, etc. Do not place too many heavy items in the door trays.

Protect fresh food you want to freeze using aluminium foil, cling film, air and water tight plastic bags, polyethylene containers or other suitable plastic containers with a lid.
Leave some free space between the single pieces of frozen food as proper air circulation is required.

The food is frozen completely after 24 hours (you find the relevant information about the maximum freezing capacity within 24 hours in chapter TECHNICAL DATA).
Only buy frozen food, when its packaging is not damaged. Damaged packaging may indicate an interruption of the cold chain.
Avoid or reduce variations in temperature: buy frozen food at the end of shopping and transport it in thermally insulated bags.
Do not refreeze defrosted and semi-defrosted food. Consume within 24 hours.
- Observe the complete information on the packaging of frozen food.

WARNING! Do not eat food which is still frozen. Children should not eat ice-cream straight from the freezer. The coldness can cause injuries in the mouth.

⚠ WARNING! Contact with frozen food, ice and metal components in the freezer compartment can cause injuries similar to burns.

4.9 Removable ice cube maker

4.10 Helpful hints/energy saving

Do not line the drawers with aluminium foil, waxed paper or paper layers; otherwise optimum circulation of the cold air is impeded so the appliance cannot work at best performance.
◆ Cooked food can be stored in the appliance. Let it cool down to room temperature before you put it into your appliance.
◆ Store your food in colourless, airtight and tasteless materials.
Some food like meat, fish etc. may become dry and release strong odours. You can avoid these by wrapping them into aluminium foil or plastic wrap or putting

them into an airtight bag or container.

Allow ample storage place for your food. Do not overfill your appliance.
- Wrap your food in plastic wrap or suitable paper and place each kind of food in a particular location in your appliance. This will prevent any contamination, a loss of water and a mingling of odours.
Let warm or hot food cool down to room temperature before you put it into your appliance. Otherwise the energy consumption will increase and encrusted ice will be generated.
If you buy frozen food, the packaging must not be damaged and the product must be properly stored (sales container -18 ^0 C or lower).
Put the frozen food you want to defrost into the cooling-compartment of you appliance.
How to defrost frozen food depends on your kitchen-equipment and the purpose, you want to use the frozen food for.
