Foods with different perishability can 
therefore be arranged on the shelves as 
you like, without having to take into 
account the different temperature zones 
which usually occur. The arrangement (see

– plastic containers for frozen foods;
– extra-thick aluminium foil
 The following are suited for sealing bags and wraps:

The electronics start the defrosting cycle in the refrigerator as needed 
based on economical energy use and the maintenance of a constant 
temperature. Defrosting cycles are started more or less often, 
depending on the degree of moisture accumulation. Because the 
greatest accumulation of moisture occurs when the door is open, the 
frequency of defrosting cycles is determined by frequency and duration 
of door...
