1. Make sure the vacuum canister, its top and gaskets are clean and dry.
2. Place the produce in the vacuum canister, but do not exceed the canister’s
maximum level. Put on the top of the vacuum canister.
3. Remove the hose located on the underside of the cover and then push
one connector on the device hose connection (8) and the other end into
the hole on the vacuum container lid.
4. Close the cover on the device and press the handle down. Push the
Canister button and the vacuum process begins immediately. The signal
light lights up and the vacuum process begins. The process can be
followed through the progress lights. Push on the top with your hand at
the beginning of the process to avoid air leakage between the vacuum
canister and top. Note that the container is compressed somewhat during
the vacuum process, which may cause a creaking noise to arise. This is
normal and nothing that affects the results.
5. The device automatically switches off after about 30 seconds, and the
Canister light and the progress lights will turn off.
6. Push on the top with your hand and pull the vacuum hose out immediately
when the device turns off.
7. When the canister is under pressure, this is indicated by the “Pressure
indicator” button being compressed.
8. To test the result, try lifting the top.
9. To open the top of the vacuum canister, push the “Vacuum release” button
on the top to release the pressure, then the top can be lifted off.
10. The vacuum canister can be cleaned and washed in a dishwasher (not the
top) after use. Never use solvents when cleaning.
11. If it looks like dirt has gotten under the white protective cover on the
underside of the top, the protective cover can be removed and washed by
hand. Then dry off the underside of the vacuum canister’s top with a wet
rag before the protective cover it put back on. Check that the protective
cover is properly in place. Note that the entire top cannot be washed by
hand, only the white protective cover.
12.
NOTE!
The vacuum canister and cap may not be used in a microwave
oven.
Produce that has been vacuum packed in a vacuum canister and stored in
a refrigerator is kept fresh up to five times longer than non-vacuum packed
produce. Before the produce is consumed, first check the status of the vacuum
pressure in the canister. If the “Pressure Indicator” button is compressed, the
canister is still under pressure. If not, the produce should be checked carefully
before being eaten.
If the canister is stored in a freezer, the vacuum pressure holds up to one
month. The produce can, however, of course be stored longer in the freezer
even if the canister is not under pressure. Check the status of the vacuum
pressure according to the earlier instructions.
