The correct temperature
It is very important to set the correct
temperature to ensure the shelf life of
food. Reducing the temperature reduces
the growth rate of microorganisms.
Food does not spoil as quickly.
The temperature in the refrigeration
appliance will rise:
- The more often the appliance door is
opened and the longer it is kept open
- The more food that is stored in it
- The warmer the food is which is being
put into it
- The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration
appliance. This refrigeration appliance
is designed for use within specific
ambient temperatures (climate range).
Do not use in ambient temperatures
for which it is not designed.
... in the refrigerator section and in the
PerfectFresh Pro zone
We recommend a temperature of 4 °C
in the refrigerator section.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh Pro
zone is controlled automatically and
maintained at 0 to 3 °C.
Automatic temperature distribution
(DynaCool)
The fan switches on automatically when
the cooling system for the refrigerator
switches on. It distributes the
temperature in the appliance to all areas
more evenly so that all the food will be
chilled to about the same degree.
... in the freezer zone
To freeze fresh food, a temperature of
-18 °C is required. This will prolong the
shelf life of your food and retain its
quality.
As soon as the temperature rises above
36
-10 °C, the bacteria become active in
the food again so it cannot be kept as
long. For this reason, partially defrosted
or defrosted food must not be re-frozen.
Food may be re-frozen once it has been
cooked, as the high temperatures
achieved when cooking destroy most
bacteria.
Temperature display
In normal operation, the temperature
display shows the current average
refrigerator section temperature and
the maximum freezer section
temperature.
Depending on the ambient temperature
and the temperature setting, it can take
the appliance a few hours to reach the
temperature required and for this
temperature to then be shown as a
constant temperature on the display.
Setting the temperature in the
refrigerator/freezer sections
Touch the OK sensor control on the
control panel.
will appear in the display (refrigerator
section is selected).
Use the and sensor controls to
change the selected temperature
zone if required.
Touch OK.
Use the and sensor controls to
change the temperature.
Touch OK.
The temperature display will then
change back to the current temperature
in the relevant temperature zone.
Possible temperature settings
- Fridge zone: 3 to 9 °C
