Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one
or two days at the most.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad bin.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with
runners so that shelves can be positioned as
desired.

The door shelves
For more thorough cleaning, the butter shelf and the
bottle shelf can be removed by pulling them in the
directon of the arrows, then refitting them in position.
The -star compartment
This compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food,
for the storage of commercially frozen food and for
ice cube making.
Freezing fresh food
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change
the setting of the thermostat knob.
However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the
thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember
that, in this condition, the refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop below 0¡C. If this occurs
reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned
foodstuffs.
Frozen food storage
Storing ready-frozen foods is quite straightforward.
The packs can be placed beside each other or on top
of each other.
You are strongly advised to place ready-frozen food
in the compartment as quickly as possible after
purchase and we therefore recommend that you buy
them last. Also ensure that the external packaging is
intact.
Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen
water droplets on the pack could indicate that the
product has not been kept at a suitable temperature
and that it may have lost its original quality.
Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must
be consumed within 24 hours.
Never exceed the storage times indicated.
Do not open the -star compartment door too
often and do not leave open longer than necessary.
Important
In the event of a power cut do not open the
door. The food in the -star
compartment will not be affected if the power
cut is short and if the compartment is full.
Should the food begin to thaw, it must be
consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen.
Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is
already frozen.
During the freezing process, ensure that the freezer
compartment door remains closed.
Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending
on the type of food and the size of the packs.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigeration compartment and small pieces of meat
can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must
ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the
oven instructions, particularly regarding the
placement of aluminium wrapping in the oven.
