The StayFresh zone is divided into two
areas:

– The

dry compartment

humidity level of approx. 45 %.

– The

humidity controlled

compartment

has a control for

setting the humidity level between
45 % and 90 %. Slide the control to
the humidity level you require.

The humidity level will also be affected
by the moisture content of the food
being stored and how often the
compartment is opened.
