Dry Compartment With Low Temperature - Miele KF 2801 SF Operating And Installation Instructions

Dry compartment with low tempera-
ture
The temperature in the dry compart-
ment is maintained at 30 to 37°F (-1 to
3°C). While lower than the temperature
in a standard refrigerator, this is the op-
timum temperature range for storing
fresh food which is not sensitive to
cold. The deterioration process is de-
celerated at this temperature range so
food can be stored without loss of
freshness for considerably longer than
in a standard refrigerator.
The humidity level is similar to that in
the conventional Fridge Zone.
The dry compartment is suitable for
storing perishable foods such as:
– Fresh fish and shellfish
– Meat and poultry
– Deli salads
– Dairy products such as yogurt,
cheese, cream, etc.
– Any type of food can in fact be stored
in this compartment, as long as it is
packaged.
Please note that foods rich in protein
deteriorate faster than others.
Shellfish, for example, deteriorates
faster than fish, and fish deteriorates
faster than meat.
For hygiene reasons, always keep these
foods covered or wrapped in this
compartment.
Storing food in the MasterFresh zone
Take food out of the dry compartment
approximately 30 to 60 minutes before
using it. The aroma and taste do not
fully develop until the food has
reached room temperature.
