Note the chill zones in the refrigerator
compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment
creates different chill zones:
Coldest zone is between the vegetable container and
■
the glass shelf situated above.
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat)
in the coldest zone above the vegetable container.
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 flavour
and the butter will still be easy to spread.
