• Liquids in the bag may only be sealed but
not
vacu-
um-sealed, because liquid could be sucked in. For that,
squeeze out the air first.
• Liquids could be sucked in by the vacuum pump.
When
sealing liquids, use the SEAL function only.
• Once food has been packaged, it is to be frozen or
stored at a cool place.
• Use waxed or greaseproof paper to separate items that
are likely to stick to each other when frozen.
• Place food, that is to be frozen, into the freezer imme-
diately after it has been packaged. If necessary, use
shock-freeze function.
• Do you want to freeze liquid food, such as soup, in a
vacuum bag? Freeze the liquid inside a bow. Then re-
move the bowl and seal the frozen item inside a bag.
• Do you want to re-open the bag again? Use scissors to
cut along the sealing seam.
• You may heat the bags in a pot. But do not exceed
temperatures of 90 °C.

pierce the bag beforehand.

tainer.
- Heat the bag, using a maximum of 50 % microwave
power.
- Only heat the bag to low or medium temperature.
