It is important to set the right
temperature for storing food in the
appliance. If food is not stored at the
right temperature, bacteria can multiply
rapidly, causing the food to spoil. This
can be prevented by selecting the right
temperature. Temperature affects the
rate at which bacteria can multiply, and
reducing the temperature can slow
down this process.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise for the following reasons:
–
if you open the door frequently, or
keep it open too long,
– if you put too much food in it,
– if you put food in it that is too warm,
– if the room temperature is too high.
The appliance is designed for use
within a certain temperature range
(room temperature), and should not
be used outside this range.
...intherefigerator
We recommend a temperature of 4°C
(39 F) in the refrigerator section.
Automatic cold air circulation
(DynaCool)
Whenever the refrigerator section
switches on for cooling, the fan is
automatically switched on as well. This
ensures that cold air is evenly
distributed throughout the refigerator,
so that all the food stored inside will be
chilled to approximately the same
temperature.
...inthefreezer
For freezing fresh food and storing
frozen food for longer periods of time,
the temperature needs to be at least
-18 °C (0 F). At this temperature, most
bacteria stop growing. However, if the
temperature rises above -10 °C (14 F),
the bacteria can become active, which
will make the food start to deteriorate.
This is why any partially or completely
thawed food must never be refrozen
until it has been cooked. High cooking
temperatures will kill most bacteria.
Setting the temperature in the
refrigerator and freezer
sections
The temperatures for the refrigerator
section and the freezer section are set
independently, using the buttons to the
right and left of the temperature
displays.
Press the
+ button: to increase the temperature
(it gets warmer)
- button: to decrease the temperature
(it gets colder)
The temperature being set will flash in
the display.
