WARNING
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to explosions.
■ Do not store explosive substances or
spray cans with flammable propel-
lants inside the appliance, as they
may cause ignitable gas-air mixtures
to explode.
CAUTION
Health hazard!
Contaminated food can cause health
problems.
■ Opening the door for long periods can
cause a significant increase of the
temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
■ Store raw meat and fish in suitable
containers in the refrigerator, so that
it is not in contact with or drip onto
other food.
■ Clean regularly surfaces that can
come in contact with food and acces-
sible drainage systems
■ Two-star frozen-food compartments
are suitable for storing pre-frozen
food, storing or making ice-cream

ments are not suitable for the freez-
ing of fresh food.
■ If the refrigerating appliance is left
empty for long periods, switch off,

• To achieve the most efficient use of energy
for your appliance, combine the drawers,
glass shelves and door shelves as shown
in the figure on page EN-14.
• A temperature setting that is too high or too
low can reduce the shelf life of your food.
This leads to greater food waste.
• Set the temperature in the fridge to +6 °C
and fill the fridge compartment in such a
way that the temperature conditions inside
are optimally utilised, guaranteeing optimal
food storage.
• The following tips show you how you can
store foods in your appliance to keep them
in the best possible condition over the long-
est possible period. This will mean that you
avoid food waste:
– Place spreadable butter and cheese on
the upper door shelf (3) in the fridge. This
is where the temperature is warmest.
– Store preserves, jars and eggs on the
middle door shelf. Eggs are best stored
on the supplied egg rack.
– Place drinks cartons and bottles in the
large lower door shelves. Position full
containers closer to the hinge in order to
reduce the strain on the door.
