Thanks to the optimum storage
conditions in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
for fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and
dairy products, food remains fresh for
longer, and flavor and vitamins are
retained.
The optimum storage temperature for
fresh food that is not sensitive to the
cold is 32°F and 37°F (0 to 3 °C). This is
the temperature range which is
automatically maintained in the
PerfectFresh Pro zone. Food that is not
sensitive to cold can be stored in the
PerfectFresh Pro zone at this
temperature without loss of freshness
for considerably longer than in a
standard refrigerator.
The humidity level in the PerfectFresh
Pro zone can also be regulated to
provide the correct conditions for the
food stored. An increase in the humidity
level ensures that food retains its own
moisture and does not dry out so
quickly. Such food therefore remains
crisp and fresh for longer.
Food should be in good condition
from the start to get good storage
results.
Take food out of the PerfectFresh Pro
zone approx. 30-60 minutes before
using it. The aroma and flavor do not
fully develop until the food has
reached room temperature.
Storing food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
The PerfectFresh Pro zone is divided
into two compartments:
The Info system (shown here in
sections) above the PerfectFresh Pro
zone helps you to choose the correct
compartment and the appropriate
setting in the humidity-controlled
compartment.
– The upper dry compartment has a
temperature of between 32°F and
37°F (0 °C and 3 °C). The humidity
level in this compartment is not
increased ; this compartment is for
storing fish, meat, dairy products and
any other type of food as long as it is
packaged.
– The lower humidity-controlled
compartment (number depends on
model) has a temperature of 32°F
and 37°F (0 °C to 3 °C). The humidity
level can be kept low or high
/ , depending on the position of
the slide control. If the humidity is
high, fruit and vegetables should be
stored here.
Each type of food has its own
characteristics and requires certain
storage conditions.
