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.
Alarmen
10.1Tips for storing food in the refrigerator compartment
¡ Only store food when fresh and undamaged.
¡ Store food covered or in air-tight packaging.
¡ To avoid impeding the circulation of air and to prevent food from freezing, do not place food directly against 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.
10.2Chill zones in the refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.
Coldest zone The coldest zone is between the arrow stamped on the side and the shelf underneath. 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 and in the lower vegetable container. 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.

frozen into contact with frozen food. ¡ Spread out the food over a wide area in the freezer compartment.
11.4Tips 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. Packing frozen food If you select suitable packaging material and the correct type of packaging, you can determine the product quality and prevent freezer burn. 1. Place the food in the packaging. 2. Squeeze out the air. 3. Pack food airtight to prevent it from losing flavour and drying out.

enDefrosting
12Defrosting
12.1Defrosting 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 21.
12.2Defrosting in the freezer compartment
The freezer compartment does not defrost automatically. A layer of hoarfrost in the freezer compartment impairs refrigeration of the frozen food and increases power consumption. Defrosting the freezer compartment Regularly defrost the freezer compartment. 1. Switch on the Super function ap-
prox. four hours before defrosting. "Switching on Super function", Page 17 This means that the food reaches very low temperatures and it can be stored for longer at room temperature.
