SmartFresh drawers  
The SmartFresh drawers provide the  
right combination of temperature and  
humidity. The result is freshness up to  
three times longer than in the other  
zones of the refrigerator.  
Using the SmartFresh drawers  
^ Use the sensor button to select the  
desired drawer.  
Storage temperatures  
For fresh foods that are not adversely  
affected by cold, the best range is

appear yellow.  
Humidity  
^ Use the sensor buttons to select the  
food type(s).  
The closer the humidity in the appliance  
matches the moisture content of the  
food, the more moisture the food will  
retain, and the fresher and crisper it will  
stay over a longer period of time.  
– Several food types can be selected  
at the same time.  
– To delete a food type, simply press it  
again.  
The optimal humidity is determined on  
the basis of the food stored in the  
appliance.  
– Depending on the food types  
selected, the optimal humidity is  
determined for the SmartFresh  
drawers.  
Proper humidity is assisted by 2  
humidity filters located above the  
SmartFresh drawers. These filters allow  
air to pass through, yet retain moisture.  
– The "deli" and "dairy" settings are the  
most energy efficient.  
^ Touch the access button to confirm  
the settings.  
^ Place the food in the drawer.

SmartFresh drawers  
For optimal storage conditions, it is  
always best to store similar foods  
together in one drawer.  
The upper SmartFresh drawer is the  
best place to store moisture  
sensitive foods.  
Foods that are best stored under dry  
conditions  
– fresh fish and shellfish, meats,  
poultry, sausage, dairy products and  
deli salads.  
Foods that are best stored under  
moist conditions  
– fresh produce, e.g., vegetables,  
lettuce, herbs, mushrooms,  
cabbage, fruit.  
Remember that higher moisture levels  
can only be attained when the food is  
stored unpacked so air can circulate  
freely.

Using the refrigerator efficiently  
Different storage zones  
Coldest area  
Due to the natural circulation of air in  
the appliance, there are different  
temperature zones in the refrigerator.  
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest  
section of the appliance. Make use of  
these different zones when placing  
food in the appliance.  
The coldest area in the refrigerator is  
directly above the SmartFresh drawers.  
The temperature in the drawers  
themselves is even colder.  
Use these cold areas in the refrigerator  
for all highly perishable foods, such as:  
– fish, meat, poultry,  
This appliance uses a dynamic  
cooling feature to establish a  
constant temperature during  
cooling. As a result, the differences  
between temperature zones are less  
pronounced.  
– deli meats, store-bought meals,  
– dishes or baked goods containing  
eggs or cream,  
– fresh bread dough, pastry dough,  
cake batters,  
Leave some space between items, so  
air can circulate freely around them.  
Make sure the ventilation slits are not  
covered - this is important for the  
cooling performance.  
– dairy products.  
If storing high-proof alcohol, make  
sure it is tightly closed and stored  
upright.  
Warmest area  
Do not store cooking oil in the  
refrigerator door. Traces of oil can  
cause stress cracks to occur in the  
plastic components in the door.  
The warmest area is in the top section  
of the door. Use this area to store items  
such as butter and cheese.  
Do not allow food to touch the rear  
wall of the appliance, it may freeze  
to the wall.

SuperCool  
When the SuperCool function is  
activated, the appliance is cooled as  
cold and quickly as possible (to a  
factory-preset temperature).  
Switching off SuperCool  
The SuperCool function automatically  
switches off after approx. 6 hours. The  
sensor button turns white, and the  
appliance continues running at normal  
power.  
The SuperCool function is ideal for the  
rapid cooling of drinks and for  
refrigerating large quantities of foods.  
To save energy, the SuperCool function  
can be switched off early, once the  
food and/or drinks are sufficiently  
chilled.  
Switching on SuperCool

refrigerator zone, the new temperature  
setting appears, 35°F (2°C).  
The temperature in the appliance now  
begins to fall, with maximum cooling in  
the refrigerator zone.
