Storage space
Depending on requirements, shelves/drawers (par-
tially and depending on model) can be adjusted in
height or removed to optimize the storage space.
NOTE:
For the most efficient use of energy, place all shel-
ves/drawers in their original position.
Fridge
Always store food covered or packed to prevent dry-
ing-out and transfer of odor or taste onto other food
items. You may pack the food with e.g.
 Polyethylene plastic bags or foil
 Plastic bowl with lid
 Special plastic covers with elastic strip
 Aluminum foil
Temperature zones and storage recommendations
The optimal cooling temperature is around 5∼7
degrees for the central area of the cooling.
Different cooling zones are created by the air circula-
tion. Regardless of the power level, cold air drops off.
 The coldest zone is on the cooling rear wall and in
the lower cooling part. Recommended for storing
perishable foods such as meat, fish and sausages
at around 2-3 degrees.
 About that it becomes less cold. For dairy pro-
ducts such as yoghurt, cheese and co., the center
of the cooling is just the right temperature at
around 5 degrees.
 Well-packed leftovers or preserves needs less
cooling. The upper cooling part at around
8 degrees could be the right place.
 The cooling door is one of the warmest locations.
The upper racks are good location for food that
needs moderate cooling, such as butter and eggs.
There is space for drinks in the lower door racks.
 The vegetable box (depending on the model) is
suitable for fruit and vegetables at a temperature
of around 8 degrees, depending on the cooling
temperature. To ensure that delicate fruits and
vegetables feel good, a glass shelf above avoids
the falling cold.
Freezer
The 4-star freezer allows you to store frozen food at
a temperature of ≤ -18°C for several months; to pro-
duce ice cubes and to freeze fresh food.
NOTE:
Make sure that the temperature in the freezer does
not rise above -18°C. For this, the unit should be
defrosted regularly. A thick frozen layer deteriorates
the cooling and increases the power consumption.
Freezing
 Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to
the core. During freezing operation, the tempera-
ture of fresh food should be lowered as fast as
possible to keep formation of ice crystals as little
as possible and not to damage the food structure.
 Frozen food should be kept in contact with the
bottom of the compartment.
 Keep a space between the individual items, so
that the cold air can circulate.
Storing frozen food
 Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in a
4-star-freezer compartment in accordance with
the manufacturer's data. Make sure the food
items do not defrost after purchase and to store
them as fast as possible in the freezer.
 It is possible to store food for longer periods of
time, up to three months. This period might vary,
so observe the storage information on the pack-
aging of the merchandise.
