3.5 LONGFRESH
Compartment
In the LONGFRESH 0°C compartment
the temperature is controlled automati-
cally. It stays constantly at about 0°C, no
adjustment is necessary.
The constant storage temperature of
about 0°C and the relative humidity of
between 45 and 90 % provide optimal
conditions for the various kinds of food.
You can therefore store a variety of fresh
food in the LONGFRESH 0°C compart-
3.6 Humidity control
ment, where it will last up to 3 times lon-
ger with better quality compared to nor-
mal refrigerator compartments. This al-
lows you to stock more fresh food. Taste,
degree of freshness, quality and nutri-
tional values (vitamins and minerals) are
well preserved. Loss of weight in vegeta-
bles and fruit diminishes. Food yields a
higher degree of nutritional value.
The LONGFRESH 0°C compartment is
also suitable for defrosting food.
In this case the thawed food can be stor-
ed up to two days .
Both drawers can be used according to
the desired storage conditions inde-
pendently of each other with lower or
higher humidity.
Regulation for each drawer is separate
and is controlled using the slide valve at
the front of the drawer.
• „Dry": low air humidity - up to 50 %
relative humidity
This humidity level is reached when
both sliders are set into this position
and the ventilation openings are
wide open.
• Humid": high relative humidity - up to
90%
This humidity level is reached when
both sliders are set in this position
and the ventilation openings
are closed. Humidity is kept and can
not escape.
