removing food

power failure for some time
-
the appliance is faulty

5.4 Refrigerator compartment
The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator compartment
results in zones differing in temperature. It is coldest directly
above the vegetable drawers and at the rear wall. It is warmest
at the top front of the compartment and in the door.
5.4.1 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
Store perishable food such as ready-to-serve dishes, meat
products and sausages in the coldest zone. Place butter
and preserves in the upper area and in the door (see Appli-
ance 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.
