STORING FOOD IN THE 
FRESHZONE DRAWER

498628

In the 

FreshZone

 compartment, food stays fresh longer than in a conventional 

refrigerator, retaining more flavour and nutrients.

Decay and loss of mass are slowed down; therefore, fruit and vegetables remain fresh and 

natural longer.

For optimum performance, the drawer should be fully closed.

•  When buying food, make sure it is fresh as this will determine the quality of the food, as 

well as how long it will keep in the fridge.

•  Store the food in closed containers or appropriate packaging to prevent them from 

emitting or receiving odours.

•  Take the food from the drawer 30-60 minutes before use to allow the aroma and fl avour 

develop at room temperature.

•  Food sensitive to low temperature and not appropriate for storage in the 

FreshZone

 

drawer include the following: pineapple, avocado, bananas, olives, potatoes, eggplant, 

cucumbers, beans, peppers (capsicum), melons, watermelons, pumpkins, squash, 

zucchini etc.

•  To remove the drawer:

 

- Pull out the drawer until it is blocked.

 

- Then, lift it at the front and pull it all the 

way out.
