Practical tips
Due to the natural circulation of the air in the appliance, there are
different temperature zones in the refrigerator chamber. The coldest
area is directly above the vegetable drawers. Use this area for all
delicate and highly perishable food such as:
• Fish, meat, poultry
• Sausage products, ready meals
• Dishes or baked goods containing eggs or cream
• Fresh dough, cake mixtures
• Pre-packed vegetables and other fresh food with a label stating it
should be stored at a temperature of approximately 4°C
The warmest area is in the top section of the door. Use this area for
storing butter and cheese.
To achieve the most effective food preservation for the longest pos-
sible time and to avoid wasting any food, position the products as
shown in Fig. 1. In addition this figure illustrates the layout of drawers,
baskets and shelves, which allows the most efficient use of energy.
Optimal temperature and storage conditions will extend product shelf
life and optimise electricity consumption. Optimal storage temperature
range should be stated on the food packaging.
