Humidity controlled crisper
(EverFresh+)
Humidity levels of the vegetables and fruit are kept under
control with the feature of humiditycontrolled crisper and
the food is ensured to stay fresh longer.
We recommend you to place the leafy vegetables such as
lettuce, spinach and the vegetables which are sensitive to
humidity loss, in a horizontal manner as much as possible
inside the crisper, not on their roots in a vertical position.
While the vegetables are being placed, individual weights
of the vegetables should be taken into consideration.
Heavy and hard vegetables should be put at the bottom of
the crisper and the lightweight and soft vegetables should
be placed on top.
Never leave vegetables inside the crisper in their bags.
This will cause them to decompose prematuraly. If you
wish to keep vegetables separate, use perforated paper
bags or similar materials to do so. Certain fruits such as
pears, apricots, peaches or apples generate high levels of
ethylene gas. Do not place them with other fruits and
vegetables which do not, as this will cause them to
decompose faster.
Harvest Fresh

Food stored in the crispers continue their photosynthesis
by means of the wavelength effect of blue light and thus,
preserve their freshness and preserves their vitamin
content.
