Storage time and
temperature of foods
The storage time chart at the end of the instruction
book gives information about storage time.
The storage time can not be determined exactly in
advance, as it depends on the freshness and handling of
the cooled food. That is why the storage time made
known is only informative.
If you do not want to use up deep-frozen foods bought
immediately they can be stored for about 1 day (until
defrosting) in the refrigerator.
Drawer
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables.
There is a separator inside the drawer that can be placed in
different position to allow for the subdivision best suited to
personal needs.
Shopping mode
Before putting a bigger amount of food into the refrigerator
(e.g. when returning from shopping) press the function
selection button once or twice as occasion requires to
obtain shopping mode (the shopping mode symbol shown
on the display). In this manner the refrigerator reaches its
lowest possible temperature to cool down the bigger
amount of food.
To exit from shopping mode press the function selection
button again. Should you not do so, after a while the
refrigerator returns to automatic mode.
For adequate cooling developing interior air
circulation is necessary. For this reason you are asked
not to cover the air circulation gaps behind the shelves (e.g.
with tray etc.).
Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.
Allow it to reach room temperature naturally.
In this way unnnecessary frost building up can be
avoided.
Foods can take over odours from each other.
So it is essential to put foods in closed dishes
or wrap them in cellophane, aluminium foil, grease-
proof paper or cling film before placing them into
the refrigerator. This way foods will keep their
moisture e.g. vegetables will not dry out after some
days.
