•
Once you have filled the bags as desired, you can close the bags by applying
pressure along the top pressure seal.
•
For use inside microwaves, your bags should be left open approximately ½
an inch in order to release hot air.
•
You should not use the IntelliBags in the microwave if they contain food with
high oil content.
•
Never use the IntelliBags in the microwave for longer than 1 minute at a
time. If contents are not to your desired temperature, wait 1 minute before
microwaving again.
•
Always use caution and handle your bags with care when they contain hot
food/liquid.
•
When cooking or reheating in a pot, there should be liquid surrounding the
bag so there is no direct contact with the pot itself. Do not use the bags in a
dry pot, as this can cause damage to the bags and your cookware.
•
You should not exceed a medium boil or 212
°
F when you are cooking or
reheating with your IntelliBags on the stove.
HELPFUL TIPS
•
It is not recommended to rinse or wash produce prior to storing inside of
your bags. Waiting to wash your produce until right before cooking/eating
will help to preserve its freshness.
•
If you find moisture builds inside the bags when storing food, you may
periodically dry the bags and the items inside for best results.

A thorough rinse is all that is needed after use with most items such as fruits,
nuts, or vegetables.
•
Do not use any harsh chemicals, cleaners, or rough materials to clean your
IntelliBags.

The IntelliBags are top rack dishwasher safe. However, it is recommended
to hand wash in warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly to prolong the life
and beauty of the IntelliBags.

Always ensure you dry the IntelliBags completely with a soft towel or set
them aside to air dry before storage.

To store your IntelliBags, ensure they are completely dry. Then, deflate and
seal completely.

Your bags should be stored in cool, dry, and sanitary locations at all times

products. You should always follow standard food safety requirements
when storing food.
