6.3 Storage container
The temperatures in the storage container are lower than
in the refrigerator compartment. Temperatures below
32 °F (0 °C) may occur occasionally.
In order to reach temperatures close to 32 °F (0 °C) in the
storage container, switch on the freshness mode.
→ Page 14
Use the lower temperatures in the storage container to
store highly perishable food, e.g. fish, meat and sausages.
6.4 Fruit and vegetable container with hu-
midity controller
Store fresh fruit and vegetables loose in the fruit and veg-
etable container.
Cover any chopped fruit and vegetables, or store in air-
tight packaging.
You can adjust the humidity in the fruit and vegetable con-
tainer using the humidity controller. This allows fresh fruit
and vegetables to be stored for longer than with conven-
tional storage.
The air humidity in the fruit and vegetable container can
be set according to the type and amount of food to be
stored by moving the humidity controller:
¡ Low humidity required when primarily storing fruit
or mixed items, or if the appliance is very full.
¡ High humidity required when primarily storing
vegetables or when the appliance is not very full.
Condensation may form in the fruit and vegetable con-
tainer depending on the food and quantity stored.
Remove the condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the
air humidity to a lower setting using the humidity controller.
To ensure that the quality and aroma are retained, store
fruit and vegetables that are sensitive to cold outside of
the appliance at temperatures of approximately 46 °F
(8 °C) to 54 °F (12 °C), e.g. pineapple, bananas, citrus
fruits, cucumbers, zucchinis, bell peppers, tomatoes and
potatoes.
