en-us Refrigerator compartment The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage location for meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals and pastries. Storing food ■ Store fresh, undamaged food. The quality and freshness will then be retained for longer. ■ In the case of ready-made products and bottled goods, observe the best-before date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer. ■ To retain aroma, color and freshness, pack or cover food well before placing in the appliance. This will prevent the transfer of flavors and the discoloration of plastic parts in the refrigerator compartment. ■ Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance. Note: Avoid contact between food and rear panel. Otherwise the air circulation will be impaired. Food or packaging could freeze to the rear panel. Note the chill zones in the refrigerator compartment The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones: ■ Coldest zone is on the rear panel inside the appliance and on the cold storage compartment. See chapter "Getting to know your appliance". Note: Store perishable food e.g. fish, sausage, meat in the coldest zones. ■ Warmest zone is at the very top of the door. Note: Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. Cheese can then continue to release its flavor and the butter will still be easy to spread. Vegetable container with humidity controller To create the optimum storage climate for fruit and vegetables, you can set the air humidity in the vegetable container depending on the quantity stored: ■ smaller quantities of fruit and vegetables - high air humidity ■ large quantities of fruit and vegetables - low air humidity Note: ■ Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. eggplants, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored outside the refrigerator at temperatures of approx. 46 °F to 54 °F (+8 °C to + 12 °C) for optimum preservation of quality and flavor. ■ Condensation may form in the vegetable container depending on the type and quantity of products stored. Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust air humidity in the vegetable container with the humidity controller. Cold storage compartment See chapter "Getting to know your appliance" The cold storage compartment has lower temperatures than the refrigerator compartment. Even temperatures below 32 °F (0 °C) may occur. Ideal for storing fish, meat and sausage. Not suitable for lettuce, vegetables and produce sensitive to cold. 10
