The correct temperature
38
It is very important to set the correct
temperature to ensure the shelf life of
food. Reducing the temperature re-
duces the growth rate of microorgan-
isms. Food does not spoil as quickly.
The temperature in the refrigeration ap-
pliance will rise:
- The more often the appliance door is
opened and the longer it is kept open
- The more food that is stored in it
- The warmer the food is which is be-
ing put into it
- The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appli-
ance. This refrigeration appliance is
designed for use within specific am-
bient temperatures (climate range).
Do not use in ambient temperatures
for which it is not designed.
... in the refrigerator section
We recommend a temperature of
4 °C
in the refrigerator section.
Temperature display
In normal operation, the temperature
display shows the
current average
refrigerator section temperature
in-
side the refrigeration appliance.
Depending on the ambient temperature
and the temperature setting, it can take
the appliance a few hours to reach the
temperature required and for this tem-
perature to then be shown as a con-
stant temperature on the display.
