Storing Food In The Perfectfresh Zone - Miele K 34272 iD Operating Instructions Manual

The PerfectFresh zone provides ideal
storage conditions for fruit, vegetables,
fish, meat and dairy products. Food
stays fresh considerably longer while
retaining both flavour and vitamins.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh
zone is maintained automatically at
between 0 - 3 °C. 0 - 3 °C, while lower
than the temperature in a standard
refrigerator, is the optimum temperature
range for storing fresh food which is not
sensitive to cold.
The deterioration process is
decelerated in this temperature range
so food can be stored without loss of
freshness for considerably longer than
in a standard refrigerator.
The humidity in the PerfectFresh zone
can also be regulated to suit the food
being stored. Food retains its own
moisture if stored at a higher humidity
and so does not dry out as quickly. This
allows it to stay crisp and fresh for
longer.
Remember that the fresher the food
when placed in the appliance, the
longer it will stay fresh.
Take food out of the PrefectFresh
zone approx. 30 - 60 minutes before
using it. The aroma and taste do not
fully develop until the food has
reached room temperature.
