Storing food in the refrigerator section
35
Do not load more than a maximum of
35 lb (16 kg) of food in the appliance
door.
WARNING! Fire hazard!
Do not operate any electrical equip-
ment inside the appliance. This can
cause sparking.
DANGER of explosion!
Do not store any explosive materials
or products containing flammable
propellants (e.g., spray cans) in the
machine.
If storing food which contains fat
or oil in the machine or the machine
door, stress cracks may be caused in
the plastic, resulting in it breaking.
Make sure that no oil or fat leaks
onto the plastic parts of the machine.
Various cooling zones
Due to natural air circulation there are
different temperature zones in the re-
frigerator section.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest sec-
tion of the appliance. Make use of the
different temperature zones when plac-
ing food in the appliance.
To allow air to circulate efficiently, do
not pack food too closely together in
the refrigerator.
If there is insufficient air circulation
the cooling performance will de-
crease and energy consumption will
increase.
Do not cover the fan in the rear wall
of the refrigerator.
Food must not touch the back of the
refrigerator section as it may freeze to
the back wall.
This appliance has DynamicCooling,
which helps to keep an even tempera-
ture when the fan is running. When
DynamicCooling is turned on, the dif-
ference between the various zones is
less pronounced.
Warmest area
The warmest area in the refrigerator
section is in the top section of the door.
Use this for storing butter so that it re-
mains spreadable and cheese so that it
retains its flavor.
Coldest area
The coldest area in the refrigerator sec-
tion is directly above the dividing plate
of the PerfectFresh zone and against
the rear wall. However, inside the Per-
fectFresh zone is even colder.
Use these areas in the refrigerator sec-
tion and in the PerfectFresh zone for all
delicate and highly perishable food,
e.g.:
– fish, meat, poultry,
– cold cuts
– dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream,
