Chilling food
Page EN-14
The following tips show you how you can
store foods in your appliance to keep them in
the best possible condition over the longest
possible period. This will mean that you avoid
food waste:
• Place spreadable butter and cheese on
the upper small door shelf (3) in the upper
fridge. This is where the temperature is
warmest.
• Store cans, glasses and eggs on the
small door shelves (3). Eggs are best
stored on the supplied egg tray.
• Place drinks cartons and bottles in the
large door shelf (4). Position full contain-
ers closer to the hinge in order to reduce
the strain on the door.
• Place securely closed bottles on the bot-
tle rack (10).
• Place cooked and baked foods on the
glass shelves (9).
• Place fresh meat, game, poultry, ba-
con, sausage and raw fish on the glass
shelf (7) above the vegetable drawer (6).
This is where the temperature is lowest.
• Place fresh fruit and vegetables in the
vegetable drawer (6).
• Only store strong alcohol standing upright
and closed tightly.
• Allow hot food to cool before placing it in
the fridge.
The temperatures within the appli-
ance and therefore its energy con-
sumption may increase if the doors
are frequently opened or opened for long
periods, or if the ambient temperature
exceeds the stipulated minimum or maxi-
mum levels (see “Intended use” on
page EN-4).
Maintaining quality
• To maintain the flavour and freshness of
food in the fridge compartment, only place
packaged food in the fridge. Use special
plastic containers for food or customary
films.
• Place the food
– in the fridge in a way that allows the air to
circulate freely. Do not cover the shelves
with paper or anything similar.
– somewhere that is not directly against
the rear wall. Otherwise it may freeze
onto the rear wall.
