Cool-fresh compartment
Cool-fresh compartment
With cool-fresh storage, you can keep fresh foodstuff
fresh for up to three times longer than in the refrigerator
compartment – for even longer freshness and nutrient
retention, and consistent flavour.
The temperature can be set from –3 °C (27 °F) ...
3 °C (37 °F).
Cool-fresh container
The storage climate in the cool-fresh container offers
ideal conditions for storing fish, meat and sausage as
well as fruit and vegetables.
Notes
■
Store food no higher than the container rim to
prevent detaching the lid of the cool-fresh container.
■
Never store fruit and vegetables in a cool-fresh
container with meat or fish.
■
Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana,
papaya and citrus fruit), and vegetables sensitive to
cold (e.g. eggplants, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers,
tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored outside
the refrigerator at temperatures of approx. 46 °F
(8 °C) ... 54 °F (12 °C) for optimum preservation of
quality and flavour.
■
Condensation may form in the cool-fresh container
depending on the type and quantity of food stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust
the humidity in the cool-fresh container with the
controls for cool-fresh compartment.
