ZERO DEGREE Compartment

The temperature in this compartment is automatically
maintained between 0
°
C and +3
°
C. No adjustment is
needed by the user.
Food storage and humidity control
Various fresh foods can be stored in the ZERO DE-
GREE compartment for almost twice as long as in the
refrigerator compartment.
The humidity contained in the foods (in particular fruit
and vegetables) make optimum storage conditions
possible.
The two top drawers are fitted with slits (A - see figure)
(adjustable by means of sliding levers) which allow the
humidity inside the drawers to be varied. Highest hu-
midity is maintained with the slits closed. The bottom
drawer is low humidity.
