Using the PerfectFresh zone

For every type of food, there are ideal storage conditions to ensure it stays fresh as long as possible, retaining both flavour and vitamins.

The important factors for this are the storage temperature and the humidity.

The correct combination of temperature and humidity is a unique feature of the PerfectFresh zone. Food can be stored for up to three times longer in the PerfectFresh zone than in a standard refrigerator.

What are the advantages of the PerfectFresh zone?

As food remains fresh for up to three times as long, the advantages for you are:

fresher, tastier food,

greater convenience due to practical storage, and

greater savings due to quality preservation.

Storage temperature

The optimum storage temperature for fresh food which is not sensitive to the cold is 0 - 3 °C. This is the temperature range which is automatically maintained in the PerfectFresh zone. Food can be stored there at this temperature without loss of freshness for considerably longer than in a stan- dard refrigerator, as the deterioration process is decelerated at this temperature.

Humidity level

The closer the storage humidity is to the humidity content of the food, the crisper and fresher the food remains over a longer period, as the water content of the food is largely retained.

Storing food in the PerfectFresh zone compartments

The compartments in the PerfectFresh zone have a control which is used to adjust the relative humidity. Set the control at the relative humidity level required (- = high humidity,

,= low humidity).

If high humidity - is selected, a humidity level of 90 % can be achieved when the compartment is full. The humidity depends strongly on the type and quanltiy of food being stored.

Please take into account that high humidity is only achieved and is only effective on the food if the food is stored unwrapped or loosely wrapped.

The high humidity setting - is ideal for storing freshly harvested products such as vegetables, salad, herbs, mushrooms and home-grown seasonal fruit.
