13.
The sealing time is counted down to 0.
14.
The corresponding LED lights up and turns off when the process is complete.
15.
Open the lid and take out the bag.
16.
Now you can use bag for vacuuming.
PLEASE NOTE
We recommend a break between each vacuuming/ sealing process so that the
sealing bar can cool down. It is, however, also possible to seal several bags one after
another without a break.
Make sure that the bag you want to use is at least
8cm/3.1in.
longer than the food.
Add another
2 cm/0.8in.
for each time the bag is re-used.
Do not overstuff the bag; leave enough empty length in the open end of the bag (at
least a few inches) so that the bag can be properly placed in the vacuum chamber.
Do not wet the open end of the bag. Wet bags may not seal properly.
Clean and straighten the open end of the bag before sealing. Foreign matter or crea-
ses on the bag may result in a faulty seal. Do not wet the open end of the bag. Wet
bags may not seal properly.
If the food you’re sealing has sharp edges (such as bones or shells) pack the edges
with kitchen paper to avoid tearing the bag
First freeze liquid food in a suitable container and then put it in a bag to vacuum seal it.
As food can expand slightly during freezing, choose a bag about 8 cm longer.
Place unfrozen meat or fi sh on a paper towel and vacuum seal with the paper towel
in the bag to absorb any extra moisture.
Separate soft foods that stick together easily with baking or parchment paper and
then vacuum seal them. This will make it easier to remove.
6.6 Sealing a bag without vacuuming it
You can seal a bag without vacuuming it. Insert the bag in the vacuum chamber as
usual and press the “Seal” button. To ensure a cleanly welded seam a short vacuuming
process must be carried out to ensure that the device’s lid is tightly sealed. In the case
of small or full bags this may result in the creation of a vacuum which is too strong. To
solve this problem, simply seal the bag outside the vacuum chamber. To do this, place
the bag over the sealing bar, close the lid and press the “Seal” button.
This works only
with smooth sealed edge bags. If structured bags are used a slight negative pressure
will be created and could result in pressure-sensitive food items being squashed.
6.7 Vacuuming a structured bag outside the vacuum chamber
Structured bags can also be vacuumed outside the vacuum chamber.
To do this, place the bag over the sealing bar and close the lid. Proceed as described
from Step 5 of the “Vacuum packaging a bag in the vacuum chamber” section.
However, this works only with structured bags.
6.8 Vacuum package in a Canister
1.
Place the device on a dry place.
2.
Wipe the vacuum container and its lid to make sure they are clean and dry.
3.
