You can keep dairy products, eggs, prepared meals, pastries, open preserves and hard cheese in the refrigerator compartment.
You can set the temperature in the refrigerator compartment from 3 °C to 8 °C.
The recommended temperature in the refrigerator compartment is 4 °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.
Follow the tips if you store food in your refrigerator compartment.
- To ensure that the freshness and quality of the food is retained for longer, only store fresh and unspoiled food.
- In the case of ready-made products and bottled goods, do not exceed the best-before date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer.
- To retain aroma, colour and freshness or to prevent taste transfer and discolouration of the plastic parts, store food well wrapped or covered.
- Leave warm food and beverages to cool down before placing them in the refrigerator compartment.
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone is on the partition and in the door rack for large bottles.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
Tips:
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.
Store perishable food such as fish, sausages and meat in the cool-fresh compartment. Cool-fresh compartment
