Follow the instructions for repacking pre-packed food and for freezing the food as described.
• Pre-packed foods must in any case be consumed by the use-by date shown on the original package.
• Once you have warmed up or defrosted perishable food, it must be eaten. Do not eat perishable food
if it has been left at room temperature for many hours. This is especially important if the food has been
prepared with a dense sauce, in a vacuum-seal or in other low-oxygen content environments.
• Do not defrost food in boiling water or using other heat sources, unless the food in question is liquid
(soups, juices etc.).
• Vacuum-sealing extends the life of dried food. Food which has a high fat content becomes rancid due to
oxygen and heat. Vacuum-sealing extends the life of food like nuts, coconut flakes, or cereal products.
Store in a cool, dark place.
• Vacuum-sealing will not extend the life of fruit and vegetables such as bananas, apples, potatoes and
several vegetables, unless it has been peeled prior to vacuum-sealing.
• Soft foods and food with a delicate structure (like fish, berries etc.) must be pre-frozen for one night
before they can be vacuum-sealed and placed in the freezer.
• Vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage give off gas when they are vacuum-sealed fresh for
NOTE: To ensure correct and safe vacuum-sealing, use only original Rommelsbacher Magic
