Storing Food In The Perfectfresh Pro Zone - Miele KFN 37682 iD Operating And Installation Instructions

The PerfectFresh Pro zone provides
ideal storage conditions for fruit, vege‐
tables, fish, meat and dairy products.
Food stays fresh considerably longer
while retaining both flavour and vita‐
mins.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh Pro
zone is maintained automatically at be‐
tween 0 - 3 °C. While lower than the
temperature in a standard refrigerator,
this is the optimum temperature range
for storing fresh food which is not sen‐
sitive to cold. The deterioration process
is decelerated at this temperature range
so food can be stored 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 suit
the food being stored. Food retains its
own moisture if stored at a higher hu‐
midity 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 lon‐
ger it will stay fresh.
Take food out of the PerfectFresh Pro
zone approx. 30 - 60 minutes before
using it. The aroma and taste do not
fully develop until the food has
reached room temperature.
The PerfectFresh Pro zone is divided
into two areas:

Storing food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone

of compartment) the temperature is
between 0 - 3 °C. Depending on the
position of the regulator, the humidity
level is not increased  or in‐
creased  /  Fruit and vegetables
can be stored in this compartment
with the humidity increased.
Each type of food has its own charac‐
teristics which determine the specific
storage conditions it requires.
The Info system above the
PerfectFresh Pro zone helps you
choose the correct compartment
and/or select the appropriate setting in
the humidity controlled compartment.
