plug cable disconnected from the power socket.
•
Vacuum packing does not replace other preservation procedures, but can be used alongside them.
• Perishable foods however require refrigeration or freezing to avoid deterioration; vacuum packing
lengthens their preservation time and maintains their organoleptic qualities intact.
•
The pre-packaged products must be in any case consumed with the expiry date indicated on the
packaging.
•
A higher vacuum level indicates less presence of oxygen, and therefore the possibility of better
preservation.
• Liquids must be refrigerated before being packaged in vacuum pack bags to prevent them leaking or
suction in the vacuum chamber.
•
Powder products and grains must be covered with a napkin before being vacuum packed to avoid them
being sucked into the vacuum chamber, which would obstruct the valve or damage the pump.
• Containers not suitable for vacuum packing preservation can implode due to the effect of the air pressure,
causing damage and injury; for freezer preservation, only use the specific tempered glass jars for freezers.
• The vacuum pump and the sealing system are equipped with thermal protection; in the event of
overheating, the machine automatically stops and can start working again only after a few minutes of
cooling.
•
The automatic operating settings were created at the time of manufacture to obtain the best performance
of the machine, in terms of safety and reliability. If in particular cases, different performance is required to
those pre-set, you need to proceed in manual mode.
• If you don’t wait the minimum time required between the connection to the mains and the start of the work
cycle, you need to disconnect and re-insert the plug in the socket and wait the minimum time required (15
seconds).
•
When using with containers it is recommended to use the appliance in manual mode and to pay close
attention to the heating of the sealing bar, to avoid burns.
• If worn, the cable should be replaced by a specialist technician with cable type HAR H05VV-F or however
equal to the cable supplied.
• Practice and experience will allow you to obtain the best results from the appliance with every different type
of food.
• For its use, pay attention the appliance is on a flat and stable surface.
•
To work, the appliance must be connected to a power socket that is always easily accessible during use.
• Acoustic level under 60 dBA.
•
Minors must not play with the appliance.
•
Cleaning and maintenance of the appliance must not be carried out by unsupervised minors.
INFORMATION ON VACUUM PACK PRESERVATION
VACUUM PACKING
It means removing the air from a container or bag, to preserve the content from harmful effects caused by
oxygen, such as oxidation or development of mould and bacteria. All the objects, in contact with the air, are
subject to alterations; these alterations are particularly obvious in food. The air and humidity in foodstuffs
cause mould and micro-organisms to develop, a loss of flavour and smell and colour alterations. Preservations
systems, such as refrigeration, freezing and drying, have the purpose of reducing and preventing such
alterations; vacuum packing, thanks to air extraction, considerably lengthens the preservation period of the
foodstuff whether fresh or preserved. To make the vacuum time efficient and lasting, the container and the bag
