Vegetable Container With Humidity Control - Bosch KIS Série Mode D'emploi

Note when loading products
Wrap or cover food before placing in
■
the appliance. This will retain the
aroma, colour and freshness of the
food. In addition, flavours will not be
transferred between foods and the
plastic parts will not become
discoloured.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool
■
down before placing in the appliance.
Note
Avoid contact between food and rear
panel. Otherwise the air circulation will
be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to
the rear panel.
Vegetable container with
humidity control
Fig. 4
The vegetable container is the optimum
storage location for fresh fruit and
vegetables. A humidity controller and a
special seal can be used to adjust the air
humidity in the vegetable container. This
allows fresh fruit and vegetables to be
stored twice as long as with conventional
storage.
The air humidity in the vegetable
container must be adjusted according to
the type and quantity of the fresh
products stored:
Mainly fruit as well as for a large load –
lower air humidity
Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed
load or small load – higher air humidity
Notes
Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple,
■
banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and
vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g.
aubergines, cucumbers, zucchini,
peppers, tomatoes and potatoes)
should be stored outside the
refrigerator at temperatures of approx.
+ 8 °C for optimum preservation of
quality and flavour.
Condensation may form in the
■
vegetable container depending on the
food and quantity stored. Remove
condensation with a dry cloth and
adjust air humidity in the vegetable
container with the humidity controller.
Note the chill zones in the
refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
Coldest zone is between the arrow
■
stamped on the side and the glass
shelf situated below. Fig. 5
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausage, meat) in the coldest zone.
Warmest zone is at the very top
■
of the door.
Note
Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in
the warmest zone. Cheese can then
continue to release its flavour and the
butter will still be easy to spread.
