5.3 Refrigerator compartment
The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator compartment
results in zones differing in temperature. It is coldest directly
above the plate separating off the ClimatFreshbox zone and at
the rear wall. It is warmest at the top front of the compartment
and in the door.
5.3.1 Food refrigeration
Note
The energy consumption increases and the cooling perform-
ance decreases if the ventilation is inadequate.
u
Always keep the air slits of the fan free.
u
Place butter and preserves in the upper area and in the door
(see Appliance at a glance).
u
Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminium and glass
containers and cling film for wrapping.
u
Always store liquids and food which is subject to odour or
taste transfer in closed containers or cover them.
u
Foods which give off a large amount of ethylene gas and
delicate foods, such as fruit, vegetables, salad, should
always be stored separately or wrapped so as not to reduce
the storage life; e.g. do not store tomatoes together with
kiwis or cabbage.
u
Use the front area of the refrigerator compartment floor only
for briefly putting down cooled products, e.g. when rear-
ranging and sorting. However do not leave cooled products
there otherwise they may be pushed back or tipped over
when the door is closed.
u
Do not store food too close together to enable good air
circulation.
5.3.2 Setting the temperature
The temperature depends on the following factors:
-
the frequency of opening the door
-
the room temperature of the installation location
-
the type, temperature and quantity of the food
Recommended temperature setting: 5 °C
An average temperature of approx. -18 °C is then established
in the freezer compartment.*
The temperature can be adjusted continually. Once the setting
3 °C is reached, the cycle is begun again at 9 °C.
u
Call up the temperature function: Press the "+/-"

time the button was pressed and the set temperature is
again displayed. The temperature in the interior gradually
adjusts to the new value.
