Storing food in the MasterFresh zone MastertFresh zone The MastertFresh zone provides ideal storage conditions for fruit, vegetables, fish, meat, and dairy products. Food stays fresh considerably longer while retaining both flavor and vitamins. The MasterFresh zone comprises a humidity-controlled and a dry compartment. - Depending on the moisture-regulator setting, the humidity-controlled compartment is particularly suitable for storing fruit and vegetables. - The dry compartment is suitable for storing perishable foods such as fish, meat, and dairy products. Any type of food can in fact be stored in this compartment, as long as it is packaged.

Food retains its own moisture if stored at a higher humidity and so does not dry out as quickly. This allows it to stay crisp and fresh for longer. The moisture released by food in storage is kept within the humiditycontrolled compartment drawer. The closer the air humidity in the humiditycontrolled compartment is to the humidity content of the food, the crisper and fresher the food remains over a longer period, as the water content of the food is largely retained. The moisture level greatly depends on the type and quantity of food being stored, if stored unwrapped. The temperature in the humiditycontrolled compartment is approximately equivalent to the temperature in the conventional refrigerator section. Remember that the fresher the food when it is placed in the appliance, the longer it will stay fresh. 88
