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 stocks last longer. Taste, freshness
and nutritional value (vitamin B and C group con-
tent) 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 (0°C) and 37°F (3°C),
and the resultant humidity provide the ideal storage
conditions for different types of food.
The top drawer fi gure B 7,
is suitable for storing dry or wrapped food (e.g. dairy
products, meat, fi sh, cold meats). The storage cli-
mate in this drawer is relatively dry.
Drawers with humidity control,
Figure B 8: When set to "humid" these drawers can
be used for storing 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 required.
Humidity selection:
W "dry" setting: small humidity sym-
bol - slide control to left. Insert food
that is suitable for being stored in a dry climate.
W "humid" setting: high relative humidity of max.
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.
Notes:
W The humidity in the compartment depends on the
moisture content of the food in it, and the frequen-
cy with which the compartment is opened.
W When buying food, check that it is fresh - the
fresher the product and the higher its quality, the
longer it will keep.
W Unwrapped animal and vegetable foods should
be stored separately in the drawers. If there is not
enough space for them to be stored separately,
make sure that they are wrapped. Do not allow
different types of meat to come into contact with
one another but keep them packaged separately
so as to avoid premature bacterial spoilage.
W Please note that protein-rich food spoils more
quickly, i.e. crustaceans and shellfi sh spoil faster
than fi sh, and fi sh faster than meat.
W Remove food from the drawers some time before
consumption. Enjoyment will be enhanced in this
way as the aroma and fl avour develop best at
room temper ature.
W The following products should not be stored in
the BioFresh compartment: cold-sensitive veg-
etables such as cucumber, peppers, aubergines,
avocados, semi-ripe tomatoes, beans, zucchini,
and all cold-sensitive tropical fruits.
