Note

Avoid contact between food and rear 

panel. Otherwise the air circulation will 

be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to 

the rear panel.

Note the chill zones 

in the refrigerator 

compartment

The air circulation in the refrigerator 

compartment creates different chill 

zones:

■

Coldest zone is between the arrow 

stamped on the side and the glass 

shelf situated below. Fig. 

%

Note

Store perishable food (e.g. fish, 

sausage, meat) in the coldest zone.

■

Warmest zone is at the very top 

of the door and in the lower vegetable 

container. 

Note

Store at the very top of the door e.g. 

hard cheese and butter. Cheese can 

then continue to release its flavour 

and the butter will still be easy 

to spread. 

Vegetable container with 

humidity control

Fig. 

&

To create the optimum storage climate 

for fruit and vegetables, you can set 

the humidity level in the vegetable 

container:

■

Mainly vegetables as well as for a 

mixed or small load – high air 

humidity

■

Mainly fruit as well as for a large load 

– low air humidity

Notes

■

Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, 

banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and 

vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. 

aubergines, cucumbers, zucchini, 

peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) 

should be stored outside 

the refrigerator at temperatures 

of approx. +8 °C to +12 °C for 

optimum preservation of quality and 

flavour.

■

Condensation may form in the 

vegetable container depending on the 

type and quantity of products stored. 

Remove condensation with a dry cloth 

and adjust air humidity in the 

vegetable container with the humidity 

controller.

Super cooling

Super cooling sets the refrigerator 

temperature to the coldest temperature 

setting for approx. 15 hours. Then 

the appliance automatically switches 

to the temperature set prior to super 

cooling mode.
Switch on super cooling mode, e.g.

■

before placing large quantities of food 

in the refrigerator compartment.

■

for the fast cooling of drinks.

Note

When super cooling is switched on, 

increased operating noises may occur.
