Foods management

Storing food

WARNING

Risk of fire

• Do not use any electrical appliances in the food area of the appliance unless recommended by the manufacturer.

Note
The energy consumption increases and the cooling power goes down if ventilation is not sufficient.

• Always keep air slots clear.

When storing food, always observe the following:

• Air vents on the inside rear wall are unobstructed.
• Air vents on the fan are unobstructed.
• Food is in sealed packaging.
• Foods that easily absorb or give off smell or taste are stored in sealed containers or covered.
• Raw meat and fish are in clean, sealed containers to prevent them coming into contact with or dripping onto other foods.
• Liquids are in sealed containers.
• Foods are not stored too closely together, as the air needs to circulate.

Note
Failure to follow these guidelines can lead to food perishing.

BioFresh

• BioFresh will extend the storage time for some fresh foods compared to traditional refrigeration.
• The date indicated on the packaging always applies for foods with a minimum shelf life.

Note
If the temperatures drop below 0 °C foods may freeze to each other.

• Do not store cold-sensitive vegetables such as cucumbers, aubergines, courgettes and cold-sensitive tropical fruit in the full-space BioFresh appliance.

For optimal storage of foods, you can regulate the humidity in the appliance using the HumidityPlus function.(see HumidityPlus)
