It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the
appliance. Micro-organisms will cause
food that is not stored at the correct
temperature to deteriorate rapidly. The
temperature influences the growth rate
of these micro-organisms. Reducing
the temperature slows their growth rate.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
–
the more often the door is opened
and the longer it is kept open,
– if too much food is stored in it at
once,
– the warmer the food being placed in
it,
– the higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the appliance.
The appliance is designed for use in
specific ambient temperatures
(climate ranges). Do not use the
appliance in ambient temperatures
for which it is not designed.
...intherefrigerator section
We recommend a temperature of 4°C
in the refrigerator section.
Dynamic cooling
The dynamic cooling fan automatically
switches on when the cooling system
for the refrigerator section switches on.
It helps to evenly distribute the
temperature evenly throughout the
appliance, so that all the food will be
chilled to about the same degree.
...inthefreezer section
To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for a long time, a temperature
colder than -18 °C is required. At this
temperature, the growth of
micro-organisms is larged halted. As
soon as the temperature rises above
-10°C, the micro-organisms become
active in the food again so that it cannot
be kept as long. For this reason,
partially or fully defrosted food must not
be re-frozen. By contrast, food may be
re-frozen once it has been cooked, as
the high temperatures achieved during
cooking will destroy most
micro-organisms.
Temperature selection
The temperatures for the refrigerator
section and the freezer section are set
independently, using the two buttons
under the appropriate temperature
display.
Press the
+ button: to raise the temperature
(it gets warmer)
– button: to reduce the temperature
(it gets colder)
The temperature being set will flash in
the display.
