Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity control lid
The vegetable bins feature a unique lid which provides two functions:
The humidity lid seals the bins and provides a humid microclimate to extend storage times of
■ ■
fruits and vegetables.
The humidity lid prevents condensation, which forms at high humidities from dripping down
■ ■
onto the fruit and vegetables by retaining it in the grooves of the lid.
Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity slide
Each fruit and vegetable bin has a humidity adaptor control that can be adjusted to fruit or
■ ■
vegetables depending on what is stored in the bins.
If possible try to store fruit and vegetables separately. This will help extend their storage life.
■ ■
If there is a mixture of fruit and vegetables in the bin adjust the position of the control to the
■ ■
center.
If there is too much water in the bins the control can be adjusted towards the setting with fewer
■ ■
drips (fruit setting) and/or the water can be wiped out as required.
Remember a small amount of water in the bins is beneficial for fruit and vegetable storage.
■ ■
