so suitable for slow thawing of food. In this

case the thawed food can be stored in the

NATURAFRESH 0°C compartment for up to

two days.

Tips:

• Pay attention to the freshness of the food,

especially on the expiry date. Quality and

freshness influence the storage time.

• The whole storage cycle time will depend

on the preservation conditions made prior

to the final storage in the fridge.

• Food, fruit or vegetables should always be

packed or wrapped up before storage.

• Animal food always store packed and dry.

• Food rich in proteins will go bad quicker.

This means seafood will spoil before fish

which in turn will spoil before meat. While

storing food in a NATURAFRESH 0°C

compartment storage time for that kind of

food can be increased by up to three times

as well without loss on quality.
