Different storage zones
Due to the natural circulation of the air
in the appliance, there are different
temperature zones in the refrigerator.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest
section of the appliance. Make use of
the different zones when placing food
in the appliance.
Warmest area
The warmest area is in the top section
of the door. Use this for storing butter
and cheese.
Coldest area
The coldest area in a refrigerator is
directly above the vegetable
containers.
Use this for all delicate and highly
perishable food, e.g.
– fish, meat, poultry,
– sausage products, ready meals,
–
dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream,
–
fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough,
–
soft cheese and other dairy
products,
–
pre-packed vegetables and other
fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4 °C.
Do not store explosive materials in
the appliance or any products
containing propellants (e.g. spray
cans). Danger of explosion.
If storing alcohol with a high
percentage proof, make sure it is
tightly closed, and store upright.
If storing bottles of oil or food
containing high levels of fat or oil in
the appliance, take care not to let
the fat or oil come into contact with
plastic components. These can
cause stress cracks to occur in the
plastic components.
Food must not touch the back wall of
the appliance, as it may freeze to the
back wall.
Food which should not be
stored in a refrigerator
Not all food is suitable for storing in the
refrigerator. These include:
–
Fruit and vegetables which are
sensitive to cold, such as bananas,
avocado pears, papaya, passion
fruit, aubergines/eggplant,
peppers/capsicum, tomatoes and
cucumbers
–
Fruit which is not yet ripe
–
Potatoes
–
Some hard cheeses, e.g. Parmesan
