Storing food in the fridge zone Coldest area The coldest area in the fridge zone is directly above the DailyFresh drawer and at the back of the appliance. A temperature setting of 4 °C combined with appropriate hygiene measures delays the propagation of bacteria, e.g. salmonella and listeria, which can lead to serious food poisoning.
Storing food in the fridge zone Storing food correctly Ensure that food stored in the fridge zone is in packaging or covered properly (some exceptions apply in the DailyFresh drawer). This will prevent food odours from affecting other food, stop food from drying out and also prevent any cross-contamination of bacteria. This is particularly important when storing meat products. Make sure that food such as raw meat and fish in particular does not come into contact with other food.
Storing food in the DailyFresh drawer The DailyFresh drawer provides good storage conditions for fruit and vegetables. The humidity level in the DailyFresh drawer can also be regulated to suit the food being stored. Food retains its own moisture if stored at a higher humidity and so does not dry out as quickly. The temperature is approximately equivalent to the temperature in the fridge zone.
Storing food in the DailyFresh drawer Observe the following tips if you find that food you have stored does not keep well (e.g. food becomes limp or wilts after only being stored for a short time): Only place fresh food in the appliance. The initial condition of the food is crucial to maintaining freshness. Clean the DailyFresh drawer before storing food in it. Very wet food should be dried off before storing it.
Freezing and storing food Freezing fresh food Health risk caused by decomposing food. If the temperature in the freezer remains above -18 °C for a long time, the frozen food can start to defrost. This will reduce the storage life of the food. Check whether the frozen food has started to defrost. If it has, check that the food is safe to use and if it is, then use it as soon as possible or cook it before freezing it again.
Freezing and storing food Home freezing Before placing food in the freezer When freezing more than 2 kg of fresh food, switch on the SuperFreeze function for 6 hours before placing the food in the freezer. When freezing even larger amounts of food, switch on the SuperFreeze function for 24 hours before placing the food in the freezer. This helps the frozen food which is already stored in the freezer to stay frozen. Only freeze fresh food which is in a good condition.
Freezing and storing food Place the food flat in the bottom of the upper freezer drawers so that it freezes through to the core as quickly as possible. – VarioRoom: freezing the maximum amount of food (see data plate) If the ventilation slots are blocked, the cooling performance will decrease and energy consumption will increase. When placing food in the freezer, make sure that the ventilation slots are not blocked. Tip: You can expand the space available in the freezer section.
