Correct storage
For physical reasons, there are different
temperature regions in the fridge. The
coldest region is on the lowest storage
shelf. Warmer regions are the top stor-
age shelf, the vegetable drawer and the
storage compartments on the door.
The arrangement example shows at
which places in the refrigerator suit-
able temperatures for various types of
foods exist.
Tip: Food in the fridge should always
be covered or packaged, to prevent
drying and tainting of other food.
The following are suited for packaging:
– Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps;
– Plastic containers with lids;
– Special plastic covers with elastic;
– aluminium foil.
Bottle Holder
Some models are equipped with a bottle
holder in the bottle compartment. This is
used to prevent individual bottles from
falling over and can be slid sideways.
Freezing and storing frozen food
The freezer compartment is for freezing and storing food.
Important!
• The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18°C or cold-
er before freezing fresh food or storing food already frozen.
• Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time (max. 2 kg per 24
hrs). The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right
through to the core as quickly as possible.
