Crisper humidity control sliders
Using the crisper humidity control sliders
Crisper of your refrigerator is designed specially to keep your vegetables fresh without loosing their humidity. Cold air circulates basically around the crisper and the amount of the cold air passing through the crisper is controlled by the sliders on the front side of the crisper cover.
You can adjust the humidity control sliders to a suitable position according to the humidity and cooling condition of your food in the crisper.
If you want your food in the crisper to cool more, open the holes of the humidity control sliders and if you want them to cool less and keep their humidity for a longer time, close the
holes.
* OPTIONAL
