8. Vacuum packing in SOLIS MINI containers or in
containers sealed with SOLIS MINI Universal Caps
with new knob
SOLIS MINI containers and the SOLIS MINI Universal
Caps with star-shaped knob (see fig. M) make vacuum
packing easier, because the connection tube can be
directly introduced into the know central hole (see fig.
N).
SOLIS MINI Universal Caps, available in two diame-
ters (100 mm and 125 mm), are to be used on jars for
preserving food and bowls and receptacles made of
tempered glass. The Universal Caps work just like the
Caps for SOLIS MINI containers.
WARNING: When using Universal Caps do not use
plastic or glass containers that are not suitable since
they could implode under the vacuum pressure of
SOLIS MINI and cause injury.
