If you are not satisfied with the results of your stored food (e.g. food loses
firmness and wilts shortly after placing in the appliance), keep in mind the
following instructions:
^
Only place fresh food in the appliance as the initial condition of the food is
crucial to maintaining freshness.
^
Clean the PerfectFresh Pro compartments before storing food in them.
^
Dry the surface of very moist food before placing it in the PerfectFresh Pro
zones.
^
Do not store any food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone which is sensitive to cold
(see "Food which should not be stored in a refrigerator").
^
For the type of food being stored, select the correct PerfectFresh Pro
compartment and the appropriate position of the slide control for the humidity
controlled compartment (low or high humidity).
^ An increased humidity level (,, / ,,,) in the humidity controlled compartment is
achieved through the moisture contained within the food being stored, i.e., the
more food, the more moisture there is.
If too much moisture collects in the compartment on the ,,, setting and this is
affecting the food, select ,,. Otherwise, mop up the condensate with a cloth or
place a rack at the bottom of the compartment to allow any excess moisture to
drain off.
If the humidity level is too high despite the ,,, setting being selected, wrap the
food in air tight packaging.
^
If you think that the temperature in the PerfectFresh Pro zone is not correct, try
adjusting it slightly by 1 to 2 °C via the refrigerator section temperature control.
To avoid frost damage to food, a higher temperature must be set if ice crystals
begin to form on the bottom of the PerfectFresh Pro zone.
