• Verify if technical data of the appliance (see rating plate) correspond with the
local electric power grid specification.
• Connect the appliance to a single, properly grounded mains socket with
protective contact. Do not connect the appliance to a multi-socket.
• The power cord should be laid in a way preventing anyone from threading on it
or tripping against it.

Benefits of Vacuum Sealing
With vacuum sealing, after removal of air, a film bag or a container are seal tight
closed, and thus the process of perishing food products is stopped or delayed.
Thanks to vacuum sealing, the storage period of food products is extended three- or
even five-folds. The flavour and vitamins are retained.
Food products are thus protected against drying, oxidation, bacteria and mould.
Packaging with vacuum sealing is a preservation process, which is recommended
for fresh food products and must be connected with low temperatures, meaning a
vacuum-sealed product must be stored in a refrigerator, freezer or a chiller to obtain
the best possible results.
The food products that are preserved this way may be stored for a considerably
longer time than similar products but not vacuum-sealed, which usable period
amounts to a few hours or a few days only.
Vacuum sealing is used for the purpose of improving organisation of work,
preserving food in a healthier manner and saving money:
• it may be used for special occasions:
– to pack food products in vacuum conditions and thus extend their usable
period,
– to pre-prepare meals for the entire week,
– to store salads, vegetables and herbs longer (they remain crisp and
fresh);
• there is a more free space in a freezer;
• food products are preserved against drying and oxidation;
• this is a simple and prolonged way of pickling (20 minutes in vacuum are
enough);
• this is also a way of re-packing meat products, sausages or cheese, which were
already vacuum-sealed (flavour is retained);
• it provides for saving money, as all left-overs may be stored without trouble and
used later;
• all types of vegetables and fruit may be bought in season, vacuum-sealed and
thus stored longer.
