Correct storage
A fan provides for quick cooling of the 
food and an even temperature 
distribution in the fridge zone and in the 
LONGFRESH 0 °C cold zone. 
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 
fig.) indicates possible ways of storing 
food.
In order to check the temperature on the 
shelves you can carry out the following...

Tips: 
 When shopping always look for the freshest foods. Quality and 
freshness are crucial to how long food can be kept.
 Always store meat and fish wrapped and dry.
 Foodstuffs rich in protein spoil more quickly: Shellfish and 
crustaceans go off more quickly than fish and fish in turn goes off 
more quickly than meat. By storing them in the 0°C section, the 
storage period even for these foodstuffs can be increased by up to 3 
times without loss of quality.

with a soft plastic scraper, e.g. a dough scraper. Do not under any 
circumstances use hard or pointed objects for this purpose.
The appliance should be defrosted when the thickness of the white 
frost has reached about 4 mm; but at least once...
