Food should not touch the rear wall of the refrigerator!Foods should be cooled down before storing. Crispy and delicate foods should be stored in the coldest parts of the refrigerator. Set the thermostat to the setting where lowest temperatures are reached. Set the thermostat gradually as to avoid freezing of the foods. Use a thermometer and measure the temperature in the individual compartments. Place the thermostat in a glass vessel filled with water. Temperature readings are most reliable few hour after steady state is reached. Varnished surfaces are cleaned with soft cloth and an alcohol based cleaning agent (for example glass cleaners).
