• To achieve the most efficient use of ener-
gy for your appliance, combine the draw-
ers, glass shelves and door shelves as
shown in the figure on page EN-14.
• A temperature setting that is too high or
too low can reduce the shelf life of your
food. This leads to greater food waste.
• Set the temperature in the fridge to +6 °C
and fill the fridge such that the temper-
ature conditions inside are optimally uti-
lised, guaranteeing optimal food storage.
The following tips show you how you can
store foods in your appliance to keep them in
the best possible condition over the longest
possible period. This will mean that you avoid
food waste:
• Place spreadable butter and cheese in
the door shelf (7) at the top. This is where
the temperature is warmest.
• Store preserves, jars and eggs in the door
shelf (7). Eggs are best stored on the sup-
plied egg tray.
• Place drinks cartons and bottles in the
large door shelf (8). Position full contain-
ers closer to the hinge in order to reduce
the strain on the door.
