To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for a long time, a temperature of
-18 °C
is required. At this temperature
the growth of micro-organisms is
generally halted. As soon as the
temperature rises above -10 °C, the
micro-organisms become active in the
food again so that it cannot be kept as
long. For this reason, partially defrosted
or defrosted food must not be re-frozen.
Food may be re-frozen once it has
been cooked, as the high temperatures
achieved when cooking destroy most
micro-organisms.
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the
appliance. Micro-organisms will cause
food which is not stored at the correct
temperature to deteriorate rapidly.
Temperature influences the growth rate
of these micro-organisms. Reducing the
temperature reduces their growth rate.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
– the more often the door is opened
and the longer it is kept open,
– if too much food is stored in it at once,
– the warmer the food is which is being
put into it,
– the higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the appliance.
The appliance is designed for use in
specific ambient temperatures
(climate ranges). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is
not designed.
Setting the temperature
^
Select one of the wine conditioning
zones or the freezer section by
touching the sensor until the
appropriate symbol lights up yellow.
You can set the temperatures in the
wine conditioning zones independently
of one another.
^
You can now use the arrow sensors
on either side of the temperature
display to set the temperature you
require.
By touching the
X
sensor:
the temperature will get
colder
Y
sensor:
the temperature will get
warmer.
