Do you remember the bizarre combination of leftover curry and garlic chutney with a half-cut onion that hit you when you opened the fridge? You are certainly not the only one with this issue. There are Indian households that deal with mixed smells as a part of daily life, and they can be very annoying for anyone who has a refrigerator that is unorganised.
And the real problem? Old fridges were not designed to have separate zones and adequate smell control features. That one gigantic compartment for all items is responsible for them absorbing each other’s scents. Vegetables masquerading as fruits, dairy smelling like lentils, even cream cakes holding a hint of garlic. Now imagine if your fridge was smarter than that. What if it had the capability of separating, controlling, and preserving food the way they deserve?
Meet the Lumiere Series Refrigerator
The solution is the newest Lumiere Series refrigerator, upgraded with next-generation features like Magic Convertible Zone, Garden Fresh Box, and ABT (Anti-Bacterial Technology) specifically designed to solve that problem. If you need to store raw meat, stir desserts, or vegetables, this fridge has dedicated, smell-free compartments for everything, meaning there is no more mixing in-between odours or worrying about how fresh your food actually is. Keep reading to find out how this fridge not only keeps things cool but actually keeps them clean, fresh, and way apart from each other’s smells. This one’s worth paying attention to Indian cooking and storage needs.
Most refrigerators have a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to cooling. In most fridge designs, the sections containing dairy, leftovers, vegetables, and even raw meat were far too close to one another. The result is a lack of separation. Even worse, strong aromas from baked dishes can seep into milder food items such as fruits, confectioneries, or even dairy products.
It is buyers that make room for food from several meals at once. Unfortunately, without tempered airspace, everything ends up sharing airspace. Because these airspaces are not properly segregated, enclosed airspace causes a loss of contours, leading to bland and stale food.
The Haier Lumiere Series has been designed with features that help separate, preserve, and protect food from one another. Thus making them a more hygienic and pleasant food storage experience.
Vegetable Odour Mixing: Fresh Garden Box
Separate & Isolated Vegetable Storage
Leafy greens, as well as pungent herbs, require personal space. The Lumiere Series has a specially designed Garden Fresh Box, which is a large vegetable compartment meant to prevent odour mixing.
- Prevention of cross-contamination: Use of this separate box increases the longevity of exposed vegetables.
- Improves the organised layout for better visibility and accessibility: This feature preserves the aroma of the fresh products by not allowing them to mingle with other food smells in the fridge.
Magic Convertible Zone: Flexible Cooling to Suit Every Food Type
Another remarkable feature of the Lumiere Series is the 90-litre Magic Convertible Zone. This section enables users to set the temperature from -20°C to 5°C depending on what needs to be stored.
| Storage Need | Temperature Setting | Ideal For |
| Frozen meats | -20°C | Long-term storage |
| Ice cream and desserts | -12°C | Maintaining texture |
| Dairy items | -5°C | Cheese, butter, milk |
| Baked goods | 0°C | Cakes and pastries |
| Fruits and vegetables | 5°C | Crisp freshness without spoilage |
Users can isolate sensitive items and strong-smelling food using dedicated compartments that enhance their shelf life. Altering the temperature depending on food type ensures that smells can be contained and do not diffuse into other compartments.
ABT Technology: Anti-Bacterial Protection
The Integrated Anti-Bacterial Technology (ABT) with the Lumiere Series goes further to tackle the unpleasant bacteria growth and odours issue.
- Eliminates 99.99 percent of bacteria
- Maintains a clean internal environment
- Reduces the need for excessive cleansing
Food safety and freshness are maintained, especially when harmful microbes that neutralise strong spices and ageing food odours are removed.
My Zone: Dedicated Drawer with Pre-Set Modes
With the HRB-600MGU1 model, a special My Zone drawer is designed with three pre-set temperature modes. This drawer is perfect for keeping delicacies such as mithai, dairy, or ready-to-eat items that need precise conditions.
Intervals of Temperature include:
- 3°C to 6°C
- 2°C to 4°C
- 1°C to 2°C
This drawer is customisable which allows it to be productive for a separate set of long-lasting sensitive food items that need special treatment. They remain suspended away from the main airflow of the refrigerating system. Therefore, food preserves its real taste since surrounded smell will not be nearby.
Sun Lit Interior: Bright, Full-View Illumination
The poor visibility inside the fridge usually results in unobserved containers that are forgotten over time, coupled with expired items. Removal of these items adds multiple bad smells which are stinky in a nutshell. The Lumiere Series employs a Sun Lit Interior system using a backlit LED panel with an area measuring two by two feet.
- Lights numberless parts inside the fridge
- It becomes easy to keep track of items and organise them
- Ability to be submerged in water yet remain operational (IPX5 Certified)
Enhanced visibility all around aids in item management within the refrigerator. Heat sensors help food items to be above room temperature as allergens exhaled by items that rot are kept at bay.
Colourful Digital Display
The integrated heat display in each section of the Lumiere Series adds unit prioritisation while the digital clear calcs gel is backset together to enable seamless management for separate parts to an ease of control of up to ten sections.
The high degree of control helps maintain optimal temperatures for dairy, frozen goods, and produce which minimises spoilage and smell contamination.
Remote Wireless Management via Haismart App
Remote wireless management through the Haismart app gives users control of the refrigerator models’ settings.
- Users can set the temperatures of the freezer and convertible zones in advance before they return home.
- The app allows for remote management, ensuring users have complete control even when away from home.
These features prevent spills that lead to smell issues. This also allows large utensils to be stored without hassle, improving organisation and cleaning.
These design adjustments contribute to odour control over time and help preserve clean interiors.
