• Fill the fridge compartment in such a way
that the temperature conditions inside are
used to their full potential:
– Place spreadable butter and cheese
on the door shelf (4) in the upper fridge
compartment. This is where the temper-
ature is warmest.
– Store preserves, jars and eggs in the
door compartment (5).
– Place drinks cartons and bottles on the
bottle rack (6). Position full containers
closer to the hinge in order to reduce the
strain on the door.
– Place cooked and baked foods on the
glass shelf (9).
– Place fresh meat, game, poultry, bacon,
sausage and raw fish on the glass shelf
(8) above the fruit/vegetable drawers (7).
This is where the temperature is lowest.
– Place fresh fruit and vegetables in the
fruit/vegetable drawers (7).
• Only store strong alcohol standing upright
and closed tightly.
• Allow hot food to cool before placing it in
the fridge compartment.
• 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 temperature falls below or exceeds
the prescribed interior temperature.
• Energy consumption is also dependent
on the selected location (for more detailed
information, see page GB-19).
Maintaining quality
• To maintain the flavour and freshness of
food in the fridge compartment, only place
packaged food in the fridge compartment.
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.
– somewhere that is not directly against
the rear wall. Otherwise it may freeze
onto the rear wall.
