The following tips may help if you find that food you have stored does not
keep well (e.g. food becomes limp or wilts after only being stored for a short
time):
^
Only use the appliance for storing fresh food. The condition of the food when it
is first placed in the appliance is an important factor in determining how long it
stays fresh.
^
Clean food before placing it in the PerfectFresh zone.
^
Allow very moist food to drain before placing it in the appliance.
^
Do not store food which is sensitive to cold in the PerfectFresh zone
(see "Food which is not suitable for storing in the refrigerator")
^
Bear in mind that not all types of food can be stored together (see "Can all types
of food be stored together?").
^ Select the correct PerfectFresh compartment (high or low humidity).
^ Store food unwrapped in the high humidity PerfectFresh compartment.
High humidity in the PerfectFresh compartment can only be achieved by storing
food which contains moisture in it.
If the humidity is not high enough, because, for example, too little food has been
stored in the compartment, you can use a wet sponge to increase the humidity.
^ If you think that the temperature in the PerfectFresh zone is too high or too low,
try regulating it via the refrigerator section by altering the temperature of the
refrigerator section slightly by 1 to 2 °C.
The temperature must be increased if ice crystals start to form on the floor of the
PerfectFresh zone as otherwise the cold temperature will damage the food.
^
If a lot of water has gathered on the base of the PerfectFresh zone, dry the base
with a towel. Drain food before storage or place a rack on the floor of the
PerfectFresh zone and place the food on the rack so that the moisture can drip
down.
