For storage of ready meals, cakes

and pastries, canned food,

condensed milk, cheese, spreads,

sauces, dips and eggs.

Follow these guidelines

when storing food:

- Allow warm food and drinks to cool

down outside the appliance.

- Place food in airtight containers to

prevent it from losing its flavor or

drying out.

- To prevent poor air circulation in

the appliance, do not block

ventilation openings with food.

plastic parts and door seal.

Vita Fresh

compartment

(not included on all models)
The temperature inside the Vita Fresh

compartment is kept at almost 32 °F

(0 °C). The low temperature provides

optimum storage conditions for

perishable food.

Food can be stored much longer in

the Vita Fresh compartment than in

the regular refrigerator compartment

without losing its freshness.

The Vita Fresh compartment is

covered by a special humidity filter.

The special humidity filter optimizes

the humidity in the Vita Fresh

compartment. Depending on how full

the Vita Fresh compartment is, the

humidity can reach up to 90 percent

which is ideal for all garden and field

products such as vegetables,

lettuces, herbs and fruit.

Vita Fresh is suitable for:

Basically any food that is fresh and is

to be kept fresh longer, such as meat

and meat products, fresh fish,

seafood, milk, butter, soft cheese,

cottage cheese, fruit and vegetables.

Vita Fresh is not suitable for:

Fruit and vegetables sensitive to cold,

such as tropical fruits, avocados,

papayas, passion fruit, eggplant,

cucumbers, bell peppers as well as

fruit that has to ripen, green tomatoes

and potatoes.

When buying food, please

note:

The ”freshness at purchase” is

important for the storage life of your

food. In general, the fresher the

products are when placed in the

Vita Fresh compartments, the longer

they will stay fresh. Therefore, when

purchasing food, always check how

fresh it is.

drawers
