BIOFRESH COMPARTMENT

The BioFresh Compartment

The BioFresh compartment enables you to keep a range of fresh food fresh for up to three times as long as you would in a standard refrigerator, thus making your food last longer. Taste, freshness and nutritional value (vitamin B and C group content) remain largely intact. Spoilage and weight loss in vegetables and fruit are reduced, leaving food more fresh and natural.

The automatically controlled storage temperature, which is kept between 32°F and 36°F (0°C and 2°C), and the resulting humidity provide the ideal storage conditions for different types of food.

The top drawer:

•is suitable for storing dry and wrapped food (e.g. dairy products, meat, fish, cold meats). The storage climate in this drawer is relatively dry.

The drawer with humidity control:

•can be set to “humid” for storage of unwrapped salad, vegetables and fruit. When the drawer is full, the climate will be “dew-fresh,” with approximately 90% humidity.

You can set the humidity in this drawer to dry or moist as desired.

Figure 2

“dry” setting: small humidity symbol – slide control to left. This setting is suitable for food to be stored in a dry climate.

“humid” setting: high relative humidity of a maximum of 90%, large humidity symbol – slide control to right. This setting is suitable for storing unwrapped food with a high moisture content such as fresh lettuce.

Tips:

•The humidity in the compartment depends on the moisture content of the food in it, and the frequency with which the compartment is opened.

•When buying food, make sure it is fresh; the fresher the product and the higher the quality, the longer it will keep.

•Unwrapped meat and vegetables should be stored separately in the drawers. If there is not enough space for them to be stored separately, make sure they are wrapped.

•Do not allow different types of meat to come into contact with one another but keep them packaged separately to avoid premature bacterial spoilage.

•Note that protein-rich food spoils more quickly, i.e. crustaceans and shellfish spoil faster than fish, and fish faster than meat.

•Remove food from the drawers some time before consumption. Enjoyment will be enhanced in this way as the aroma and flavor develop best at room temperature.
