• To achieve the most efficient use of ener-
gy for your appliance, combine the draw-
ers, glass shelves and door shelves as
shown in the figure on page EN-13.
• A temperature setting that is too high or
too low can reduce the shelf life of your
food. This leads to greater food waste.
• Set the temperature in the fridge to +6 °C
and fill the fridge in such a way that the
temperature conditions inside are opti-
mally utilised, guaranteeing optimal food
storage.
• 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 door shelf (2) in the upper fridge
compartment. This is where the temper-
ature is warmest.
– Store preserved products, jars and eggs
on the door shelf (2) in the middle sec-
tion of the fridge compartment. Eggs are
best stored on the supplied egg tray.
