Vegetable container with
humidity controller
Fig. 5
The vegetable container is the optimum
storage location for fresh fruit and
vegetables. A humidity controller and
a special seal can be used to adjust the
air humidity in the vegetable container.
This allows fresh fruit and vegetables
to be stored twice as long as with
conventional storage.
The air humidity in the vegetable
container can be set according to the
type and amount of products to be
stored:
■ Mainly fruit as well as for a large load
– lower air humidity
■ Mainly vegetables as well as for
a mixed load or small load – higher air
humidity
Notes
■ Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple,
banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and
vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g.
aubergines, cucumbers, zucchini,
peppers, tomatoes and potatoes)
should be stored outside
the refrigerator at temperatures
of approx. +8 °C to +12 °C for
optimum preservation of quality and
flavour.
■ Condensation may form in the
vegetable container depending on the
type and quantity of products stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth
and adjust air humidity in the
vegetable container with the humidity
controller.
The freezer
compartment
Fig. 1/A
Is used to:
■ store deepfrozen food,
■ make ice cubes,
■ freeze small quantities of food.
Notes
■ You can tell from the handle whether
the freezer compartment door
is closed properly. Fig. 6
■ The freezer compartment door
engages audibly.
■ If the door is open, the frozen food will
thaw. The freezer compartment will
become covered in thick ice.
Also: waste of energy due to high
power consumption!
■ The glass plate is height-adjustable.
