Refrigerating

Arrange food as follows:

– On the shelves:
Cakes and pastries, ready meals, dairy products,
meat and sausage
– In the vegetable container:
Vegetables, lettuce, fruit
– In the temperature controlled drawer:
Fish, poultry, meat, vegetables
– In the door:
(from top to bottom):
Butter, cheese, eggs, gallons, small bottles,
large bottles, milk, juice cartons
When placing food in the appliance,
please note:
– Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the
appliance.
– Place food in the appliance well packed or wrapped.
Flavor and freshness will then be retained. This will also
prevent transfer of flavors and discoloration of the
plastic parts.
– Do not allow oil and grease to come into contact with
plastic parts or the door seal.
– Store high percentage alcohol upright in sealed
containers only.

When buying food, please note:

The "purchase freshness" is important for the shelf-life of
your food. In principle the following applies: the fresher the
food is placed in the temperature controlled drawer,
the longer it will keep. When buying food, always note
the degree of freshness.

How to save energy

– Install the appliance in a dry, ventilated room; do not
expose to direct sunlight and do not place near a heat
source (e.g. radiator, cooker). If required, use an
insulating plate.
– Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing
them in the appliance.
