5.3 Humidity controlled crisper
(FreSHelf)
(This feature is optional)
Humidity rates of the vegetab-
les and fruit are kept under cont-
rol with the feature of humidity-
controlled crisper and the food is
ensured to stay fresh for longer.
We recommend you to place the le-
afy vegetables such as lettuce, spi-
nach and the vegetables which are
sensitive to humidity loss, in a ho-
rizontal manner as much as pos-
sible inside the crisper, not on their
roots in a vertical position.
While the vegetables are being pla-
ced, specific gravity of the vege-
tables should be taken into con-
sideration. Heavy and hard vege-
tables should be put at the bottom
of the crisper and the lightweight
and soft vegetables should be pla-
ced over.

Never leave the vegetables inside
the crisper in their bags. If the ve-
getables are left inside their bags,
this will cause them to decompo-
se in a short period of time. In case
contacting with other vegetables is
not preferred for hygiene concerns,
use a perforated paper and other
similar packaging materials inste-
ad of a bag.
Do not place together the pear, ap-
ricot, peach, etc. and apple in par-
ticular which have a high level of
generation of ethylene gas in the
same crisper with the other vege-
tables and fruit. The ethylene gas
which is emitted by these fruit may
cause the other fruit to ripen faster
and decompose in a shorter time.
