11Refrigerator compartment
You can keep meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs, prepared meals and pastries in the refrigerator compartment. The temperature can be set from 2 °C to 8 °C. The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable foods in the short to medium term. The lower the selected temperature, the longer the food remains fresh.
11.1Tips for storing food in the refrigerator compartment
¡ Only store food when fresh and undamaged.
¡ Store food covered or in air-tight packaging.
20

¡ To avoid impeding the circulation of air and to prevent food from freezing, do not place food so that it has direct contact with the back wall.
¡ Allow hot food and drinks to cool down first before placing in the appliance.
¡ Observe the best-before date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer.
11.2Chill zones in the refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.
Coldest zone The coldest zone is in the storage container. Tip: Store highly perishable food such as fish, sausages and meat in the coldest zone.
Warmest zone The warmest zone is at the very top of the door. Tip: Store food that does not spoil easily in the warmest zone, e.g. hard cheese and butter. Cheese can then continue to release its aroma and the butter will still be easy to spread.
11.3″OK” sticker
The “OK” sticker lets you check whether the refrigerator compartment reaches the safe temperature ranges of +4 °C or colder recommended for food. The “OK” sticker is not included with all models. If the sticker does not indicate “OK”, gradually reduce the temperature. “Setting the refrigerator compartment temperature”, Page 16

Once the appliance is switched on, it may take up to 12 hours until the set temperature is reached.
Correct setting
12Freezer compartment
You can store frozen food, freeze food and make ice cubes in the freezer compartment. The temperature can be set from -16 °C to -24 °C. Long-term storage of food should be at ­18 °C or lower. The freezer compartment can be used to store perishable food longterm. The low temperatures slow down or stop the spoilage.
12.1Freezing capacity
The freezing capacity indicates the quantity of food that can be frozen right through to the centre within a specific period of time. Information on freezing capacity can be found on the rating plate. “Appli-
ance”, Fig. 1 / 6 , Page 13 Prerequisites for freezing capacity
1. Approx. 24 hours before placing fresh food in the appliance, switch on Super freezing. “Switching on manual Super freezing”, Page 17
2. Place food in the bottom frozen food container first.

12.2Fully utilising the freezer compartment volume
Learn how to store the maximum amount of frozen food in the freezer compartment. 1. Remove all fittings from the freezer
compartment. Page 24 2. Stack food directly on the floor of
the freezer compartment.
12.3Tips for storing food in the freezer compartment
¡ Store food in air-tight packaging. ¡ Do not bring food which is to be
frozen into contact with frozen food. ¡ Place the food over the whole area of the frozen food containers. ¡ To ensure that the air can circulate freely in the appliance, push the frozen food containers in as far as they will go.
12.4Tips for freezing fresh food
¡ Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
¡ Freeze food in portions. ¡ Cooked food is more suitable than
food that can be eaten raw. ¡ Vegetables: Wash, chop up and
blanch before freezing. ¡ Fruit: Wash, pit and perhaps peel,
possibly add sugar or ascorbic acid solution. ¡ Food that is suitable for freezing includes baked items, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, eggs without shells, cheese, butter and quark, ready meals and leftovers. ¡ Food that is unsuitable for freezing includes lettuce, radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, raw apples and pears, yoghurt, sour cream, crème fraîche and mayonnaise.

13Defrosting
13.1Defrosting in the refrigerator compartment
When the appliance is operating, condensation droplets or frost form on the rear panel of the refrigerator compartment due to functional reasons. The back panel in the refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically.
Condensation runs through the condensation channel into the drainage hole to the evaporation pan and does not have to be wiped away. To ensure that the condensation can drain and odours do not form, observe the following information: “Cleaning the condensation channel and drainage hole”, Page 24.
