Fill the fridge compartment (11) in such a way
that the temperature conditions inside are
used to their full potential:
• Place spreadable butter and cheese in
the top door compartment (7). This is
where it is warmest.
• Store bottles and drinks cartons in the
bottom door compartment (7). Position full
containers closer to the hinge in order to
reduce the strain on the door.
• Place cooked and baked foods on the
glass shelves (10).
• Place fresh meat, game, poultry, bacon,
sausage and raw fish on the glass shelf
(9) above the vegetable drawer (8). This
is where the temperature is lowest.
• Place fresh fruit and vegetables in the
vegetable drawer (8).
Maintaining quality
• To maintain the flavour and freshness of
food in the fridge compartment (11), only
place packaged food in the fridge com-
partment. Use special plastic containers
for good or standard food wrap.
• Place the food
– in the fridge in a way that allows the air
to circulate freely. Do not cover the glass
shelves with paper or anything similar.
– somewhere that is not directly against
the rear wall. Otherwise it may freeze
onto the rear wall.
Saving energy
• Allow hot food to cool before placing it in
the fridge compartment (11).
• The temperatures in the appliance and
thus the energy consumption can in-
crease
– if the doors are opened frequently or for
a prolonged period.
– if the room temperature fluctuates up
and/or down.
• Energy consumption is also dependent
on the selected location (for more detailed
information, see page GB-13).
Moving glass shelves and
door compartments
The glass shelves (10) above the vegetable
drawer cover can be moved around.
1. Inserting and removing glass shelf/door
compartment.
2. Guide glass shelf/door compartment over
the side brackets from above.
